We received an amazing welcome to the hotel. The staff speaks mostly Italian, but enough English for basic communication. We got lovely cake and really good cappuccinos as a welcome. Our room was large and facing the garden, with wonderful views. High ceilings. The breakfast was fantastic, with made to order eggs, lots of sweet options, youghurts and ham, jams and cheeses. Really great. One morning we were the only guests, and still got a full buffet to choose from- real luxury. The location of the hotel is fantastic, you are surrounded by some of the oldest and original winefields, and next to wineyards like Bindella.
