“Wonderful place in the middle of old Viterbo!”
To start with, the location is not only excellent (right in the middle of historical Viterbo, walking distance to most things), but you also have parking inside (and space for normal-sized cars too), which can be a life saver when travelling by car. Nice (and very clean) room, and for a very reasonable price (have been to city accommodations half as good for twice the price). Also provided disposable indoor slippers, which is instantly a +1. Lastly, can mention that the owner also has a nearby restaurant (c. 2min walk), called La Chimera, which I can strongly recommend. I do not normally give 10/10 unless very deserving, i.e. going above and beyond, but this place deserves it.

“A nice relaxing weekend, with no problems.”
The position is fantastic, right in the centre, once you have parked your car in the garage, you can visit the whole historic centre on foot. Palazzo Riario is a very old building, 16th century, I think, but it was very comfortable, warm, we were there in November, full of character. Senor Renato was incredibly helpful with directions, helping with luggage, taking care of the car etc. The breakfast was very good, typically Italian with fresh cornetti , crostata , ciambellone and yogurt etc., the coffe is very good , we didn't go hungry. We also suggest going to Renato's Restaurant, excellent!!!

“Great place, will definitely come again and recommend to my friends”
Beautiful palazzo, cozy, well equipped room, well heated (in winter it is very important). Host Renato was very friendly and efficient. Good location, easy to find, close to all places of interest. Renato runs an excellent restaurant Chimera also nearby.
