This is a great hotel with a lovely Bistro and a two Michelin star restaurant. We ended up extending our two day stay to four days. We didn’t eat at the Michelin restaurant but did eat at the Bistro which was lovely. Unfortunately the Bistro was either booked out or closed for three of the nights we stayed so I recommend checking in advance if you do not want to drive to restaurants away from the hotel. Staff were exceptional.

Great Spa, kids under 12 are not allowed into the Spa. The food is great at the dinner restaurant. A bit expensive for the area. We paid 440 euros for 2 adults and 2 kids. Breakfast is excellent.

Tranquility and class

This was our third stay at this hotel over maybe 12 years. We come back because it is serene nestled in the vineyards and hills of the Piemonte. Modern amenities set in the walls of an old monastery. Nice breakfast buffet, and nice restaurant with good s er ice and food. Since our last stay the have added an impressive wellness center and indoor pool. Hope to return again.

Excellent ambience to relax in

We really enjoyed this peaceful getaway amidst the vines as we first took advantage of the restful spa waters, then the views, then the delicious evening meal and finally 10 lengths in the outside pool.

This was a wonderful hotel in the hills of Asti.

Our room had the most gorgeous views of the hills of Asti. The room was very clean, bathroom was big, hairdryer included with the room. Staff at the hotel was very accommodating. We didn't get to go experience any of the spa activities but I'm sure it is very nice. Highly recommend this hotel. Also was very easy to find as there is lots of signage to direct you to the hotel.

Seems to have lost its former charm

Have stayed at this hotel every other year since 2001 whilst travelling between the UK and Italy, having discovered it by chance and falling in love with it - the location, charm, rooms, service and food were all excellent. This year it seemed to have lost its charm, particularly in the service from the staff, which was distinctly chilly. They even refused to acknowledge that I had pre-paid for our room until I made a phone call to hotels.com so that they could speak directly to the receptionist and verify the fact. Even after that I didn't get a apology! The setting and rooms are still wonderful, but I am not sure that I would return in future - a smile and helpfulness, in whatever language, cost nothing. Even the restaurant was disappointing this time - it felt as though we were on a conveyor belt from the kitchen. I have recommended this hotel to friends in the past, but don't think I could now. Such a shame, but I would no longer feel comfortable going there.
