The hotel is magical, part of a working vineyard. It has a Michelin restaurant. Reservations a must. The wine tours with the affiliated Barolo producers were excellent. One downside is its isolation. Difficult to reach especially at night. If you're driving it's not for the faint hearted. Sometimes the GPS would lose the signal but otherwise, a gorgeous place. The special 5 course dinner was spectacular in its volume, the many comped dishes, the creativity, etc

Very peaceful, well-kept, tastefully renovated, beautiful interiors, friendly staff, and an incredible location and view. The only, tiny, negative thing would be that there were a lot of wasps and flies around the tables for breakfast and the outdoor bistro dinner. But overall, a real gem that we will definitely come back to!

Avis mitigé

Hotel dans les vignes à 10 minutes d Alba. Les plus : hotel au calme, beau panorama, vieille batisse, bon petit déjeuner, accueil sympa et réception très serviable. Les moins : vieil hotel, chambres pas jolies (restées identiques aux années 60, sans exagerer), lit très petit (pour une chambre a 200 euro), on entend tout ce qui se passe chez les voisins.

Hotel situé au milieu des vignes sur une colline. Chambre spacieuse correctement équipée. PDJ en chambre cause COVID. Diner au restaurant le soir. Rapport qualité prix trop élevé. L'étoile donnée par Michelin ne semble justifiée.

Sehr schöne, ruhig gelegene Unterkunft mit toller Aussicht. Personal war super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Unsere Zimmer waren gross (mit Sitzecke und Salontisch). Es ist ein älteres Haus, was man auch in den Zimmern etwas merkt. Für uns machte dies jedoch genau den Charm dieses Hotels aus. Es ist authentisch und passt genau so ins Piemont. Wir waren bestimmt nicht das letzte Mal in diesem Hotel.

Hotellet ligger meget langt væk fra indkøb og spisesteder, på toppen af bjerget - skøn udsigt😉. Både restaurant og bistro har lukket tirsdag og onsdag, det var ikke tydelig beskrevet. Værelser og seng er ukomfortable. Vi afbrød opholdet efter 2 dage, ingen refusion

Beautiful Location and Room!

Absolutely beautiful location right in the vineyards with incredible views in every direction. Quiet, clean and beautiful room and bath. We loved this place and would highly recommend it. We ate at the restaurant which was delicious, but pretty expensive. There's a local restaurant right down the street we would try next time.

Lugar de Ensueño

Lugar de ensueño para una estancia romantica. El hotel está en medio de los viñedos sobre una colina, con vistas increíbles. Es una casona con mucho carácter, con un restaurante gastronómico de primer nivel, que permite disfrutar los vinos de la zona. Además esta muy cercano a Alba que es una cuidad medieval muy bonita
