Frommer's Review

With a history dating from 1885, this is Ravenna's most charming boutique hotel. It's small but choice, housed in a meticulously restored palace from the 1300s, although much altered over the years. It boasts such classic features as 15th-century frescoes gracing the corridor. Even though it's old, it was overhauled completely in 1998 when it entered the modern world with up-to-date amenities, although the wine cellar and the architectural style of the splendid rooms were retained. The various color schemes inspired the names of the rooms: Yellow Gem, Green Gold, Rose and Roses. Painted beamed ceilings and terra-cotta floors are grace notes from another time, but the furnishings are modern, either contemporary in style or else reproductions of antiques.

Facilities:
Restaurant; wine bar; room service; nonsmoking rooms

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
