Beautiful off the main road historical hotel with amazing food and beautiful setting.
Pros:

Historical building with elegant charm, remodeled, up to date, and very clean. Fresh flowers, delicious breakfast with complimentary Prosecco and fresh squeezed juices, with homemade breads and pastries. The spa and pool were kept extremely clean. The staff was positive, happy to help, and very professional. Everyone from the door man, receptionist, wait staff, spa attendants, general manager were all kind and happy to do their job.

Cons:

20 minutes walk to the main city area but we just stayed and ate at the hotel so not really a problem. The food was delicious at the hotel.
