Palazzo Sasso

Frommer's Review

This 11th-century palace was transformed into a hotel in 1880, and was the preferred retreat of the rich and famous until the 1960s. It then fell into ruin but was restored and reopened in 1997. Today, it has been transformed into an opulent hotel in a splendid location between plunging cliffs and steep mountainside. Guest rooms are luxuriously appointed with antiques. Some of them afford gorgeous views -- the best are from room nos. 1, 201, 204, and 301, and suite 304. Some of the suites are as big as a good-size apartment, and even the lower-priced rooms are spacious (a few at the bottom of the scale have no view). Bathrooms are done up in marble, with large tubs and all the comforts you'd expect. In addition to a very nice garden, solarium, beautiful pool, and spa, the hotel prides itself on its excellent restaurant, Rossellinis, where the talented chef Pino Lavarra creates delicious meals from the best local ingredients. Note: Wi-Fi service will be introduced shortly.
