Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers unique traditional-style rooms with good facilities and amazing views, although the service was inconsistent. Situated on the beautiful walking trail along the river, the location is charming, close to many attractions. The dining experience provided very good quality but lacked some variety. The facilities were well-maintained and included traditional Marche products.
The hotel offers a wonderful view in very special surroundings, with a small bathroom and a mini bath in the rooms. The view is lovely. The service was struggling to keep up, especially the receptionist who didn't read my request properly. The location is on the beautiful walking trail along the river, providing a serene setting. The dining experience was of very good quality, serving meat eaters veggie sausage. The facilities were top-notch.
I loved staying at this hotel with its unique traditional style, fabulous toiletries, and fluffy towels. The comfy beds made my stay even better, but I wish breakfast was served earlier in the dales.
