This hidden gem of a hotel will truly impress you. You might be surprised by the entrance — it looks as a residential apartment, as the building is a protected heritage site — but once inside, it far exceeds the standards of even the most luxurious five-star hotels. The staff are exceptionally warm and helpful, and the interior feels nothing short of a palace.

“This was our luxury 2 day stay in Pavia and didn’t disappoint.”
This place was exceptional. Superb welcome and we were really looked after. Spectacular and grand. It felt really exclusive without being over the top.

“Nice place to stay in the middle of historic center of Pavia.”
Host is very kind, he already prepared maps, marked with places to visit and recommended restaurants. Staff is really very kind. The room is very nice and comfortable. I had room Klimt with comfy bed and bathroom with walk-in shower. It is really very close to all tourist spots to visit, the Duomo is just one corner away. Staff have dogs and other guests also arrived with dogs, so you can pet doggies. Staff was very helpful with any requests (ordering taxi, visiting places, etc.). Many thanks for the warm welcome!

“Simply perfect and one of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed at.”
What can I say apart from amazing. Such a warm welcome from Martina. All the staff are so lovely. The pictures do not do it justice. The main ballroom is simply breathtaking. One of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed at.
