The palazzo
An old palazzo where you feel like a guest.
The fresco on the façade, the terracotta floors and the beams tell the story of the building. During your stay they become part of your day: you meet them again coming back from a walk or on the way to your room.
The rooms are laid out in different ways. Some guests want a window on the garden, some a space for the family, some a suite with a kitchen to stay a few days longer. We help you choose the one that fits your trip.
Breakfast
The walk can wait for one more coffee.
Every morning we prepare sweet and savoury dishes, with eggs, pancakes and waffles cooked to order. Choose what you feel like and sit in the room with the fireplace. When the weather allows, breakfast carries on in the garden.
Location
Between Piazza Vecchia and a break in the garden.
We are at Via Tassis 21. You can set off on foot to explore the upper town and come back to the palazzo during the day. If you arrive by car, ask us first about availability and conditions of the private car park.
