From outside nothing ostentatious in this discrete small hotel in an old building of Verone. You would never guess such a charming place and warm welcome. The hotel has a very traditional charm and decoration with hundreds of paintings, plates and other stuff hanging from the wall. The breakfast room is just outstanding and at the mid floor of the hotel you find a wonderful small winter garden full with plants and flowers in which there is a cage with two budgies called “Roméo and Juliet”. We fell in love with Roméo who was constantly whistling at us to call us or to answer to our own whistling.||Wonderfully located in the centre of Verone, you can walk easily to every point of touristic interest. As every coin has two sides, it is not very easy to reach the hotel by car as “waze” is not very familiar with the pedestrian area.

Read moreFabulous five star hotel. My husband and I stayed just one night and regret not staying another! ||The location is PERFECT on a quiet street just around the corner from the main town square. Several great restaurants around the corner. Walking distance to all the main sites and attractions (including the arena and Juliet’s balcony). ||The service was impeccable. They checked us in early and let us stay late. They even arranged a private driver to take us to Lake Garda (where we were staying next). Five star service through and through. ||The photos online don’t do justice to the historic beauty of this hotel. The antiques, frescoes, artwork, and furniture all have classic Italian elegance. The room we booked (a junior suite) was large for European standards and has a separate sitting area and place to keep our luggage. ||Romeo and Juliet (the tropical birds) were beautiful and added to the hotel’s quaint charm. ||We can’t wait to return to this exceptional hotel during our next...
Read moreThis hotel was wonderfully decorated. We had a lovely room with plenty of room. The breakfast was delicious. The front desk was very helpful with touring and reservations. The concierge arranged tour for us which was fantastic. There was plenty of room to relax in lobby rooms. We truly liked everything about this hotel with the exception of the rude treatment we received trying to enter the hotel. The doorman blocked our entrance because we had food items we had purchased. In fact he had his back to us blocking our ability enter the hotel for several minutes until he finally turned and asked us if we were guests. The doorman then had to ring the bell to get entrance to the...
