“What struck me most was the rooftop terrace, seemingly hidden but rewarding those who find it with stunning views. The location is perfect, a quiet piazza near the Duomo, blending historical charm with modern luxury inside. I especially appreciated the made-to-order coffee at breakfast; a small detail that speaks volumes.”

The location was excellent. It was close to the train station. The room was spacious and well-kept. Breakfast was also excellent with a good variety of options and a beautiful dining area.
The room I was given lacked a particularly good view. I also found that the room was a bit dark. The staff at the reception were not as friendly as I had hoped. There was no information about the hotel's services provided upon arrival.
