The hotel is what would have originally been a magnificent villa - now refurbished in what might be called an ‘oppulent’ designer style. A bit OTT for our taste, but our room was spacious, pleasant, clean and well appointed.
The situation of the hotel is not as I expected from the photos (a view from a hill, overlooking a small town), it is directly on a very busy road IN Trezzo, which is basically a suburb of Milan. It’s always worth checking the map!
The restaurant offered a limited menu and the food was pretentious in presentation (rosebuds and scattered petals, no doubt applied with tweezers!) but mediocre in quality. Pasta stuck together in lumps and rice not just al dente, but chalky / gritty.
Don’t appreciate being patronised by waiters or shrugged at by hotel receptionists! Perhaps we didn’t fit the profile of their target clientele.
