In brief

What works, what to weigh

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Difficult to find — The exterior is unassuming and easy to miss, so plan to arrive by taxi if you're unfamiliar with the area.
  • Some rooms are a bit dark — While rooms are well proportioned, some lack natural light – though high ceilings mitigate this.
  • Rooms & cleanliness rated below par — The overall rating for rooms and cleanliness is 7, which is a step below the hotel's other categories – worth setting expectations for.
  • Paid parking nearby — Parking is available, but in a secured underground garage around the corner at €30 per night – an extra cost to factor in.

“The breakfast room was beautiful with a rich buffet including local specialities. The cozy terrace and several elegant sitting areas inside were lovely. The staff were friendly and courteous. A quiet location in the middle of the old town was ideal. There's a good restaurant in the same alley, Bistro Pulcinella, plus inviting cafes and bars.”
