Nice facilities with easy access to town

Posted 5 Oct 2015
Pros: Clean and comfortable
Location: We spent the day visiting Dozza/Bologna prior to our checkin. Very easy access to this area.
Very pleasant stay. Facilities are clean, plenty of parking. A lovely pool that we were not able to use as it was cool in late September during our visit. Breakfast was good - the standard for Italy. The staff were very pleasant and accommodating. There was good access if you are driving to restaurants in the town.

Lovely property, but hotel a little shabby. Restaurant was terrible! Limited menu, overpriced and bad food(they take al'dente to an extreme!) along with bad service.

Great service in an old hotel

Posted 26 Aug 2015 on Hotels
Fantastic service from staff that is absolutely amazing! But... The rooms are far behind. Air conditioning worked in one of the three (!) rooms we stayed in and is very noisy. The beds are extremely noisy and will wake you up. The furniture in the rooms are very old and literary falls apart. Would I recommend you to stay here? Well, we where biking and walking around in the surroundings and it is lovely. But the hotel is not close to anything, closest village is 30 min walk away. Go here if you don't care for a modern room and the service is most important to you because the service is simply PERFECT!

Luxurious inn in Emilia-Romagna region of Italy

Posted 7 Jul 2015
Pros: Everything.
Cons: Let us stay forever. . .I will work in the kitchen, clean the halls. . .let us stay!
Location: Emilia-Romagna is magical. . .eat dinner at La Scuderia in Dozza. . .eat dinner at San Domenico in Imola. . .eat bistecca at Trattoria Fita. . .sleep.
This place is gorgeous! The staff are all incredibly helpful. . .especially Phillippe and Maria Teresa. It's an old convent that has been converted into a hotel so there are a few creaks here and there, but overall this place rocks! Great food, great beverages, EVERYONE is helpful, and the setting is magical--rolling hills of Emilia-Romagna all around you as you sip wine and enjoy the passage of time. Stay here. . .you will love it and never want to leave. . .few tourists. . .mostly Italians doing what Italians do be: look good. Salut!

Must read!

Posted 29 May 2015
This property is beautiful. The outside has breathtaking views of the Italian countryside. We ate dinner at the restaurant and again, exceptional food. The waitress was very kind but we ordered a wine tasting with our meal and she mixed up the description of a couple if the wines. We didnt tell her though because she served them in the correct order. Things got worse frim there. The staff failed ti mention to us that they were having a discotek that evening by the pool (which our room was facing). By midnight we were exhausted but couldnt sleep as the noise level was extreme. Apparently this goes on every wednsday evening through the summer. When I went ti the frint desk to complain and ask to be moved my request was denied. We were asked to be patient as the disco would end around 2am. Also to note I asked to speak with the manager (philippe Silva) and the employee at the desk could not find him. The next morning on check out I asked ti speak with him again, finally he came out. As I tried to explain my dissatisfaction he was argumentative and at times accusatory. After explaining myself at least 4 times he finally offered ti discount 50% if our dinner from the evening before. Not very accomodating to guests in my book.

Wonderful stay

Posted 28 Aug 2014 on Hotels
Stayed from a Sun - Tues, found the place and staff fantastic. Also did a pasta making lesson while we were there, Chef Bruno was very hospitable and later that evening prepared one of the best meals I've had in Italy. Nearby Dozza offers different restaurants, but eat in the hotel dein by the pool at least one night. Good wifi throughout also, even by pool.
