Canossa Castle

Beautiful hotel, incredibly well maintained and only a short walk to the historic center.

This is an okay hotel. Pluses: pretty good location, easy walking distance to the old city center and major sights. The suite was very spacious, with plenty of room to spread out and relax. And the bathroom was great - best shower ever. Cons: our non-smoking room stank of cigarette smoke. The bed was not super comfortable - very firm, flat hard pillows, and no duvet; just a sheet and one rather scratchy blanket. Staff were polite but not friendly, and on our one full evening there, we could not go up to the rooftop bar because of a private event happening - which no one ever communicated in advance. Lastly, breakfast had lots of options, but none of them great quality.
