Very nice old castle. Amenities were a little too Old and scarce. We liked it very much but it was not worth the price. Staff was very friendly, dinner excellent and breakfast very nice

Nice stay
Posted 7 Jan 2016 on HotelsVery nice hotel, with unusually large rooms. Dinner was rather ordinary, but then we were both vegetarian and we may have caught the chef unprepared.

Excellent property at very reasonable price

Beautiful castle in non-descript town
Posted 8 May 2015 on HotelsThe hotel is beautiful, in a castle. The hotel staff were kind and helpful, making a reservation for us at the 1-star michelin restaurant in town. We were in a room with more modern decor that seemed out of place in the old castle, but it was comfortable and huge. The only real downside is the location. Oviglia doesn't have much. So I would recommend staying here as a base for going out to wine country or a stop on a longer journey definitely, just not for a cute Italian country town.

Good for 1-night stay, without a wedding!
Posted 4 May 2015
Pros: Staff, large room and bathroom.
Cons: Cleanliness, respect for guests needing a good nights sleep.
Location: It is too far from major attractions. The town does not lend itself to wandering around, enjoying cafes (there's only one), etc.
Stayed 4 nights, too long in such an isolated town with no local attractions. Staff were charming. Food was good. Room was huge. Bathroom was not well cleaned. Unfortunately, there were two weddings on successive nights, and the "music" (noise) went till 2am and was awful. We were given our last meal gratis in recognition of how disturbing the experience had been.

Beautiful, but a little off the beaten path
Posted 6 Oct 2014 on HotelsThe hotel was magnificent and comfortable and the staff was very helpful. The only drawback for those just passing through is that it is a little distant from the town of Alessandria (about 14 km) but their graciousness and the beauty of the facility and grounds quickly made up for that taxi ride. Everything was pristine and the restaurant was 5 star. I would go again but plan for a little more time to get to know the community.
