Relais I Castagnoni

The hospitality was so warm, and the rooms were beautiful. With that splendid garden and those views that feel like Tuscany, it’s easy to imagine you’re in a magical fairy tale for a little while. Breakfast was luxurious and tasty too. What more do you need to enjoy life?

Elisa, who manages the place, was the highlight for us. She was kind and helpful, gave us great recommendations, and called around to find places that could take us. The other staff were lovely too, very friendly and spoke excellent English. We had a generous breakfast, and the decor is really cool and thoughtfully put together. The setting is beautiful, with lots of great food and wine experiences in the area. There’s also the option of a detox steam at the spa. We had an amazing stay and would definitely come back.

We had a lovely view across the garden from our clean, tidy room, in a beautiful and romantic place. The staff were friendly. They don’t usually serve lunch, but were happy to make us an aperitivo so we wouldn’t have to head to the supermarket. We’d love to return.

The owner wasn’t especially nice, which was a letdown. Still, this beautiful bed and breakfast in the Monferrato hills has plenty to do. You can rent an e-bike to explore without getting tired, take a dip in the pool, book a massage, or rent the spa for an hour or two on your own. Breakfast had lots of good choices, and the rooms are very beautiful in an old-fashioned style.
