Frommer's Review
In 1994, the first hotel in Todi's historic center opened its doors on a successful melding of modern architectural glass and wood elements with a 13th-century palazzo. The public spaces are particularly evocative, with lots of low brick vaulting in the bar, breakfast and dining rooms, and reading and TV lounges. In summer, breakfast is served in a nook of the huge palm-shaded terrace that sits atop the hotel's 17th-century namesake fountain. The standard rooms are carpeted and wallpapered in textured creams, and have command-center headboards, pleasantly unassuming dark-wood furniture, and matching fabrics on the chairs, bedspreads, and curtains. Each of the suites has a small balcony or terrace and is unique -- and worth the splurge, especially when the high-season cost of a double brings the prices close. The "Novecento" has 19th-century antiques, the "Jacopone" Wassily chairs and a claw-foot tub, and the "Venturini" a canopy bed.

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.
