Tired of binge watching historic series on Netflix? Love Game of Thrones, The Medicis, Reign, or are just a huge history buff wanting to have the real life experience? Get off the couch and explore Castello Di Gabiano in the Piedmont region of Italy.
This majestic structure sits proudly as the crown jewel atop a mountain, today as she has for centuries, dating back to the year 1000.
What history may have forgotten, she has not. Drenched in old world charm Castello Di Gabiano is enchanting with a manicured labyrinth garden, private pool and grounds, ivy spilling over ancient brick walls and picturesque views of endless vineyards and gentle valleys below.
Several buildings have been restored to offer rustic yet lovely apartments and suites.
The staff are extremely gracious, friendly and accommodating.
The wines Gabiano produces are deliciously crafted. An assortment of reds, whites and flavorful blends are available. They also produce a delicious prosecco. With an extensive wine menu there is surly something for every palette making a wine tasting worthwhile.
During our stay a portion of the grounds were under renovation. We were informed the facility will soon include the addition of a second pool with spa amenities such as massage and other luxury services offering a more relaxing, retreat style experience. Knights in shining armor and beautiful maidens alike will enjoy experiencing the enchanting old world of yesteryear at Castello Di Gabiano in the piedmont region.

Misleading pictures
Posted 14 Aug 2023 on HotelsContrary to what some pictures might show, the rooms are not in the castle but in an annexe which was a big disappointment to us as we chose between this hotel and another one where the rooms indeed are located in the main building. You are not even allowed to access the castle as a guest. Furthermore, our room had an extremely strange layout that offered little to no privacy. And, despite being the only people in the hotel for the better part of our second day, the staff decided to do some non-urgent maintenance in our room during the few hours of the day that we actually spent in our room to plan for the remainder of our trip. On a positive note, the staff was very kind and helpful throughout our stay.

Beautiful romantic rooms. There really wasn't much to exploring the grounds. The on site restaurant is nice, but I thought the inexpensive ingredients elevated to gourmet standards just didn't work for me.

Dear Lisa,thank you for your time to wrote a review; we're really happy that you've appreciate the rooms and the location in general.We're not understood what do you mean by the inexpensive ingredients, being we use the products from the garden and local farms. We'll be happy to welcome again during another season to taste other raw materials matched our fine wines.Kind regardsThe Management

Summer escape
Posted 7 Sep 2020 on HotelsBeautiful historic property atop a hill surrounded by countryside. Room had everything required for our stay, and the excellent on-site restaurant means that you don't even need to drive for dinner!

Highly recommended
Posted 9 Sep 2019 on HotelsThe room was a bit dark and noisy especially in the mornings and at night.
Breakfast and overall service was superb.
Property is beautiful
We used the hotel as our base to go around the Piedmont region and it was really convenient

Dear Sir Victor M,
Warm greetings from the Monferrato region and a huge Thank You for having found the time to share Your thoughts online about Your experience. Apologizing for the noises You might have heard in the morning, probably due to the intense work of the Marquis' Wine Firm, we are really honored You found the service and breakfast pleasant and satisfying. Thank You as well for having stated a very important concept for us: the House is a perfect place not just to enjoy the premises for a shorter stay, but for exploring the region, the Monferrato Unesco area and moreover not particularly far from Turin, Milan and Genoa.
Thank You again for the preference, and remembering You dearly, we do hope to be able to welcome You anytime soon again.
Kindest and best regards,

Relaxing Rural Alessandria Castle
Posted 8 Sep 2019 on HotelsGorgeous grounds, wonderfully quiet, and service is considerate however not there is no bar and no jacuzzi. Castello is in a very rural area that is closed many normal American hours so you must bring your own drink, snacks, entertainment, or drive 20+ minutes to a larger town. It is perfect for folks who want peace and quiet, very relaxing!

Dear Mrs. Clair,
Greetings from the Monferrato area and Castello di Gabiano. We do value so Your opinion and that is why we do thank You for the time You have had to express it. The Bar is a pjoect the property has in mind and the we do not have a Spa indeed, yet neither of these services is promoted and/or advertised online. You have correctly stated it in the very end: the kind of tourism we address to is the country, food&wine, relax and landscape-related, as per our clear information. We do not have qhat big cities have to offer yet we manage to boast what bigger town can't provide.
Thanking You again, we wish You a very pleasant autumn season and do remain at Your disposal, in the very hope You will manage to come and relax at the Castello anytime soon in the future.
Best,
