  Una estupenda elección

  Si bien nos tocó llegar con un tiempo horrible (lluvia, nieve y viento), y su situación en lo alto de un monte, hacía presagiar lo peor, las impresionantes vistas que pudimos disfrutar al día siguiente con un día despejado, bien merecieron la pena. Además, al disponer solo de 3 habitaciones, pudimos disfrutar de la casa casi solo para nosotros. La casa es una verdadera joya arquitectonica de Ludovico Pogliaghi, incluyendo el mobiliario original, y con esa elegante decadencia que tan bien se da en Italia. Joya bien guardada por Enrica, excelente anfitriona. Arquitecta de formación, su interés y entusiasmo por la arquitectura y el arte, hacen que hablar con ella sea un verdadero placer. Ah, y sus desayunos, inolvidables!

  Wonderful stay

  We enjoyed our stay at this wonderful hotel very much. The owner is a very kind lady who helped us wherever she could. We had an amazing room with a breathtaking view. Everything was very clean and comfortable. We shared the bathroom with another room. But since we were the only guests it felt like having the whole floor just for us. The breakfast was very nice and we enjoyed it in the living room with again an amazing view. We were also invited to spend dinner with the owner and her friends which was really great and our daughter was very welcomed as well and Enrica helped us to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The little town on the hill was very cute although almost everything was closed at this time of the year. It was hard to find a good restaurant but there are some nice places to go. We really loved our stay here and will for sure go back in summer time.

  Fantastic

  What an amazing spot! Perched on the top of the mountain it really is like a fairy tail castle! Enrica who owns the house in an absolutely charming host. Our room was the apartment at the bottom of the house which we did not book so was a lovely surprise.. It was spectacular. Very quirky and apparently built and painted by an artist which adds to the old style glamour of the place. The views are incredible we were extremely impressed!

  Historical house well outside city centre

  The hotel is located entirely outside of the city of Verona, and unless you have a car there's absolutely no getting to it from downtown, the nearest airport, or the train station. Of course, this is part of its charm. The location is way up on one of the mountains surrounding the Verona lake and overlooking the city; the fact that the borgo is also the location for a planetarium and a star observatory is a testament to the purity of the air and the lack of light pollution. On the day of our visit, it had snowed and the village was thus even more pleasant to visit. There is nothing, however, up there in the winter: no groceries, no restaurants open on the evening we stayed, no coffee shops, etc. The "B & B" does not actually include breakfast in the room rate, which is a bit puzzling but the hostess is accommodating and quite ready to prepare food if needed. The villa itself, on about 5 floors, was built in 1902 by sculptor and decorator Lodovico Pogliaghi, who retired to it, and where he built up his collection of ancient art, shown alongside models of his own works in a striking arrangement with a historical slant. It is massive and certainly with its own character and style not one I'd choose for my own home but one I can appreciate. It's full of exposed, chiseled wood and medieval-inspired decor, and the only downfall is that the remainder of the house (including heating and bathrooms) could use a makeover (but how do you update a historical home while keeping to the original feeling and style?). We stayed in one of the rooms on the first floor which was comfortable and well appointed. Don't expect a mini fridge in the room or a telephone. It's a 115-year old villa from a gone era. There is a ground-floor suite that must be stunning in the warmer season. The views from the upstairs are spectacular. Overall, this was a good choice for our purpose, which was a romantic stop-over while en route to farther destinations. I'm not sure I'd spend longer unless I was looking for a do-nothing stay out of the way.

  View of Valley is Breath taking

  For an American this is an experience you will never forget. They area is beautiful, cool in July and private. The furnishings are all from the 14th and 15th centuries. Gardens are in full bloom. Better have a small car if you are going to try to park.
