Tornero’, con sicurezza.
Pros:

Tutto. Un piccolo appunto, che sicuramente non inficia il giudizio totale, ma da evidenziare per il futuro.
I croissant non erano purtroppo edibili, era duri.
Può capitare.
Si dovrebbe controllare anche le date delle scadenze (yogurt).

Pros:

Sehr schöne Lage. Tolles Ambiente. Essen ist landestypisch und gut. Der Service ist sehr gut und hilfsbereit bei Problemen. Die Zimmer sind sauber und gepflegt.

Cons:

Es ist auch ein sehr beliebtes Veranstaltungshotel. So finden auch öfters Events wie Hochzeiten und Jubiläen statt. Aber man ist darum bemüht, den Lautstärkepegel ab einer bestimmten Uhrzeit zu reduzieren.

Great Stay
Pros:

We booked this hotel as a post cruise chance to relax before heading back to the USA. This hotel is on the outskirts of Rome more in the countryside. We arrived very early on the day of check-in because we had to get off the ship. There were 5 of us.

Upon arrival, the reception staff was extremely helpful, taking our luggage into the reception area and letting us know that he would try to get our rooms ready as soon as possible. We knew we early, but appreciated him trying to get us set up in our rooms earlier. He took us up to the breakfast area and we waited up there until our rooms were ready.

This place is truly beautiful and peaceful. We researched it and found that it is a restored medieval castle and hamlet in Rome, Italy. The site dates back to the Middle Ages.

That said however, I would just caution that there are no elevators and all of our rooms were up several flights of stairs. We did get some help with getting our luggage up to our room, but upon check out we had to drag them down several flights of stairs. Our group's ages ranged from 65 to 84 so it was a bit of a challenge with all of the stairs.

Our room was beautiful, comfy mattress on the bed and a large bathroom with tub/shower.

The hotel is about 30 minutes or so from certain attractions in Rome. The staff can arrange transportation to and from Rome for guests. We just wanted to enjoy the peace and quiet so did not take advantage.

There are lots of little places/patio areas to tuck yourself into to read or draw. On our last afternoon at 5:00 p.m. we did some wine tasting out in the area by the fountain. The staff member on duty that day was great, helping us with the wine and bringing some snacks.

We thought we were having lunch and dinner in the hotel restaurant on our first night, which was a Monday, and then learned that it was closed on Mondays. They redirected us to a restaurant down the hill a bit and that turned out to be just fine, although a bit of a walk up hill on the way back. Very quiet, good service and good food and wine. We had lunch and dinner in the hotel restaurant the next day and that was also very good.

Overall, a great experience. I would just say that it's not a place for anyone with mobility issues.

Beautiful
Pros:

This hotel is beautiful and quiet. The scenery and views are breathtaking. The front staff were very helpful. It’s a distance from the tourist areas but you can get to the tourist areas by taking a cab to the train. My only suggestion will be for the drivers to be able to communicate with the guests since they may be driving guests around frequently.
