The hotel is not located in the historic centre. The cathedral is about 2.7 kilometres away.
If you’re looking for a hotel right on Piazza del Duomo, there are more central alternatives.
The hotel’s own underground car park is convenient, but according to the official website, it cannot be reserved in advance.
The PLUS rooms are more modern in design than the classic categories. Anyone who values a particularly contemporary room should therefore specifically choose a PLUS category.
