La Rosina is a lovely small boutique hotel tucked into the hills above the hustle and bustle of the Veneto area below. I believe that they are quite famous for their restaurant but it is not open everyday so you would need to head down the hill to Marostica or beautiful Bassano del Grappa for lunches and dinners. The breakfasts are also quite meager...
As I mentioned the hotel is located on the hill and every room has a view. Beautiful! For me, the real highlight of staying at La Rosina was my room. The hotel seems like it was recently renovated and the rooms are compact, though not small, but beautifully done with magazine worthy bathrooms. I had two travel companions, both of whom stayed in the slightly more expensive rooms upstairs that feature a little couch but these rooms were nowhere near as nice as mine.
Each room has a generous balcony and each room gets the same beautiful view.
Another thing to mention is the hotel is very sparsely staffed (during our stay there were generally only one or two people) and there is a slight issue if you’re and English speaker but not to the point where it is inhibiting.
As for the restaurant, we only had the opportunity to eat there on the Sunday as this was the only time it was open(we stayed Sunday to Thursday). I am a vegetarian and generally in this corner of Italy it can be difficult to find a meal at the finer restaurants but they made a dish of of grilled vegetables with cheese for me. My companions enjoyed their(meat based) dishes very much.
If you are looking for a very relaxing base to explore the area from and have a car I would definitely...
Read moreI'm amazed that the Hotel La Rosina has never been reviewed on TripAdvisor, because this is by far the best place to stay in Marostica. But I have to qualify my recommendation, for this small inn is not in Marostica proper and that's what makes it special.||||Perched on a hillside overlooking the San Floriano Valley, La Rosina is best known for hosting the famous cyclists of the Giro di Italia. You may very well stay in a room once occupied by a racing champion. Just steps from the hotel is the ultra modern Chiesetta del Ciclista, a chapel dedicated to these heroes. You are truly standing on hallowed ground for cycling fans.||||Each of the ten large nicely-furnished rooms has a private balcony with panoramic views of the surrounding valleys. Hardwood floors, free WiFi, a mini bar and flat screen TV, AC, room service and an en suite bath tops the list of amenities. There is a welcoming lobby and small collection of cycling memorabilia to remind you of where you are.||||Each morning you'll be awaken by the cuckoo and the moo and bell of the local dairy cow. Rise early to walk the road leading to the next village and pass neatly tended gardens and vineyards. Then return for an excellent breakfast in the highly-rated Restaurant La Rosina. Lunch and dinner are served nightly and can be included in your room tariff.||||I have visited Marostica often, and La Rosina is my No. 1 choice of accommodations...
