SEVEN HISTORICAL SUITES STAY URBAN HOTEL DESIGN
A thoroughly renovated 16th-century building, with 62 minimalist (and I mean minimalist...) rooms of white walls, designer lighting and funky coloured chairs. Good location and good value.

L’ALBERO NASCOSTO Tucked away in a well located street in the medieval old town, this narrow 10-room apart-hotel (no lift) exudes charm; simple but classy with wood floors, and is rather nice, nice, nice!
