“This is a reliable choice in a prime location: the Duomo is an easy walk, and you're surrounded by the city's best. While the entrance presents a bit of a climb, the rooftop views and consistently helpful staff more than compensate. The hotel's personalized service stood out to me as a real advantage-rare in such a central spot.”
