This place is better than any picture can illustrate. Every detail is attended to with perfection. The painfully intricate carvings on the stone, the antique furniture with bronze and gold plated accents, the antique style bath tub, the pink and yellow hue’ed chandelier crystals, the old pink and green marble on the bathroom wall. If you blink you’d think you stepped back into the 1800s. Such good taste was employed to recreate this place that seriously looks like you stepped into a dream.

A joy to celebrate my husband's special birthday here. We enjoyed 3 nights of wonderful care and help from a brilliant, attentive reception team, especially Sara and Richard. Nikolai was so kind driving us to places to eat in the village in the evening. A special shout out for the young barman, whose name I didnt get, whose English is exceptional. The hotel is ideally placed for the village, the island and the Unesco Sacro Monte. The Couples Symposium in the Wellness Suite was a real treat. The two therapists were friendly and professional and gave us a fabulous treatment. The exceptional meal in the restaurant was the best treat of all, innovative, delicious.a wonderful experience, alongside a very good wine flight and excellent service.

OTTOMAN SPENDOUR WITH THE ODD DRAWBACK

A magnificent near-eastern folly, bursting with mujedar stucco work, topped by a minaret. The conversion to a boutique hotel has been done without marring the feel of the place, but there are some drawbacks. Our room had silk wallpaper and a four-poster bed - but few power points. There was an occasional table theoretically lit by a standard lamp with nowhere to plug it in; we moved the table to the window. Great shower and bathroom. There were no easy chairs in our room and the ones under the big chapiteau on the terrace were downright uncomfortable. There isn't a pool (though you could be driven down to the lake to swim). There was no corkscrew to open the wine in the minibar. The staff were superb - welcoming, helpful, charming. The restaurant lived up to its billing - I will review it elsewhere. We were happy to be dining with other individual couples and groups, rather than the large party who virtually took the place over the previous night; it might be worth asking if there is a big group on the date of your intended visit. Overall we had the impression of a famous restaurant where the accommodation aspect played second fiddle. But despite this, the overall experience was a memorable way to mark our special occasion, and so it might be for others.
