"A takeover by Spanish hotel group NH has brought the place up to international standards, forfeiting some of its individuality in the process."
"While the current building dates from 1500, documents confirm that a hotel stood here as early as 1386, making this one of Italy’s oldest hotels."
"It retains something of its old ambience while the rooms have been fitted out in crisp but luxuriously modern style."

"Apart from some rediscovered frescoes, and a wealth of carefully preserved architectural detail, it’s a remarkably contemporary space, with 20th-century modernist furniture" Full review
