  WARNING: THIS HOTEL IS CLOSE RIGHT NOW (NOVEMBER 30TH 2020). So be careful, on all internets website you can book rooms even though it is closed. I wanted to book it, but then I’ve try to call many times to book also a table at the restaurant, but I couldn’t reach anyone, and all numbers were no longer assigned… So I called the town hall, and they said it is closed and the place is for sale, and the said do not book it. Hope it will save you from losing money. Otherwise, when it will open again… it’s a magnificent place to go (but make sure it is open).

  Uno splendido castello

  Davvero una splendida struttura alberghiera ricavata all’interno di un favoloso castello. Ampi spazi comuni e servizio di alto livello. Da sottolineare, la presenza di una biblioteca con numerosi volumi, per concedersi una pausa relax. Assolutamente da provare!

  Great experience

  This is wonderful hotel with kind and generous staff. Set in a beautiful location there are some good walks among the vineyards and in the local area. We had a beautiful suite (an upgrade for a special price) with a very comfortable bed. There are however a few things the management need to correct: too much design and not enough functionality. If you plug in all the lights there are no sockets to charge anything with: this is especially troublesome if you are using your laptop at the desk. The bathroom has no shelf to put your toiletry bag on: it has to be precariously balanced on the basin. Worst of all the cupboards need a special pole to hang your clothes and even then are not long enough to accommodate a coat or a longish dress. Finally there are no hooks in the entrance on which to hang coats. All of these are minor irritations but should be rectified to make a perfect room. We took the wine tasting and the cookery class which were both great experiences. The cooking was especially brilliant. Chef Gabrielle, who has worked in Alain Ducasse and Joel Robluchon restaurants, taught my wife to make two delicious dishes which were served in a private room by Maître D Aline. Both of these gentlemen are to be commended for their talent and kindness. Finally I must mention receptionist Evis who was so helpful before and during our stay in arranging the room and things to do. She was brilliant. All in all we had a wonderful four day stay.

  Fantastic Castle stay

  My wife and I were excited about staying in a castle. It’s located in the small village of Parella. It’s accessed via some challenging narrow streets. On arrival we got a fantastic welcome from Avis at reception. We were able to unload our bags before moving our car to the hotels secured and free car park. Avis took a lot of time to explain the hotel facilities plus options in the area. She provided us with various brochures to help further. We also enjoyed a glass of white wine produced on site. She also recommended and booked us into an outstanding nearby restaurant - see my review of it separately. Our room was one of the 10 located in the main Castle. The other rooms are close by in the converted stables There’s an excellent bar with a well trained and friendly bartender. Together with the drinks there was always an excellent and varied plate of snacks. One of the days we did a 40 km ebike ride through the nearby countryside and up into the hills passing a couple of beautiful mountain lakes and many cute villages. We found the ride a bit rushed but still enjoyable We also had a fascinating tour of the castle and learned a little about the amazing and ongoing restoration and development works One evening we had a wine tasting in their stunning wine cellar. Excellent wines and accompanying food. The on-site restaurant is good for daytime and evening meals You need a car to get the most of this area. There’s a lot to see and do around the castle. The rooms are very spacious with very high ceilings. It’s also a very quiet setting and the blackout blinds do a great job The breakfasts are pretty basic but adequate Overall we loved this hotel.
