The best part of the hotel is the garden of 1,000 square meters with a lightfull veranda and also a terrace solarium where han sunbaths during the summer, request a room with garden view
you will have a nice view of the Cathedral, and this kind of room is much more quite than the rooms on the street side
The breakfast is very large: fresh fruits of season, yoghurts, ham, cheese, cereals, marmelade and honey,croissants and rolls, fruit juices and all the continental breakfast.
The breakfast is always included in the rates.
A large offer of restaurant can be found nearby the hotel: I suggest "Giardino di Barbano" and " Trattoria La Gratella"
