Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Such a lovely building. Lots of traditional features but rooms are modern, clean and fresh. Our room had a small balcony, one of two in the hotel. Most attractive restaurant and courtyard. It has a gastro dining experience and the restaurant seemed very popular with local visitors but plenty of room. Breakfast had a good variety, continental but cheese and hams with everything you would expect. More than filling. The staff were very friendly and obliging. We loved every aspect of this hotel and my only reservation we ould be that whilst it was a great location for us for exploring the area, you absolutely need a car, it is quite remote. Would go back in a heartbeat.

Run by a lovely, attentive family. Bit off the beaten track but that's one of its charms and well worth the trouble. Beautiful hotel, exquisite room and the best breakfast we had in three weeks of travel through Italy, France and Spain!

El Hotel es muy bonito y las instalaciones muy limpias con un jardín muy cuidado. Cenamos allí y estuvo todo sobresaliente, nuestras felicitaciones al chef y a los camareros que nos atendieron estupendamente en todo momento. Pf: sería ideal añadir una mesita auxiliar a las habitaciones donde poder tomarse ahí el café.
