Eremo Della Giubiliana

Ho trascorso con mia moglie un meraviglioso soggiorno di 3 gg presso l'Eremo. Il personale è disponibile, cortese e preparato; la location è semplicemente favolosa: si nota il rispetto della struttura originaria e della natura circostante. Colazione da 10! Collocazione centrale rispetto a tutti i siti di maggior interesse. Se solo dovessimo muovere un appunto, secondo noi il bagno andrebbe rimodernato pur nel rispetto dell'atmosfera originaria. Ci torneremo sicuramente. P. S.: la fontana araba che attraversa praticamente l'intera struttura meriterebbe di essere studiata nelle facoltà d'ingegneria idraulica!

The hotel claims to be 5 star - it is not. Looking at their website they look as though they have some nice rooms but they also have some awful ones. We booked from Loveholidays website. The room we picked showed a beautiful large light room with bifold doors with a patio outside with a dining table (a picture of the room we booked is attached). Upon our return from holiday and complaining to Loveholidays the following day the pictures on their website of this room suddenly disappeared. Unfortunately the room provided to us (room15) was a tiny, dark airless DUMP - the window was more of a small hatch, you had to have the electric light on during the day . Upon complaining we were told that the booking was for a Superior Room with garden view and that was what we had been given. In the bedroom there was no wardrobe or chest of drawers (there was no space for them). There was no power point to charge your mobile phone- although there was one by the bathroom basin if you wished to chance being electrocuted. The garden view was a grubby courtyard complete with two open manholes . They turn the lights out at night. Upon being shown to our room for the first time in the early hours I nearly fell into one of these holes - about 40cm square and about 70 cm deep just waiting to break your leg or fracture your pelvis. The food was not good - if you were expecting fish in a beautiful wine sauce or a piece of chicken/lamb/pork in a rich sauce forget it. We dreaded the meals. We have had holidays all over Italy and never have had such poor food. The hotel certainly has a suit of armour in the hallway but their pictures of bikes for rent must have been taken 14 years ago - they are now just a load of rusting metal fit for the skip. Loveholidays have clearly mis-sold me by accident or design I do not know. Would you trust Loveholidays to provide the holiday you booked ? - I never will again

This is an ancient building from 1500s in a farming area. Yes beautifully restored by the owner - if you go insist he gives you a tour! Restaurant is excellent but avoid the special pork chops( does not work) whereas the pasta and beef dishes are very succulent. Wine prices are way below average for quality. A key point for physically impaired travellers - check access and room configurations in advance
