Parc Nacional de l'Appennino Tosco-Emiliano

Such a unique hotel built within an old perfume factory in a great location. Lots of nice bars and restaurants within easy walking distance plus Metro and trams stops to get into Central Milan close by. The staff were universally helpful and seemed genuinely really happy to help you with any queries or requests for help. The hotel itself was spotless and, as you might expect, the atmosphere was infused with wonderful fragrances. The breakfast buffet was lovely and the rooftop LabSolue Bar was a great place to be wowed with some beautifully conceived cocktails that paid homage to the former perfumery.

Hotel's location is excellent, just outside the walls for a short walk to Piazza del Popolo, and then onwards to all the museums and attractions of Rome. It is in a quiet neighbourhood, very safe and accessible. Staff were very welcoming and kind. The only thing that let it down for us was the breakfast. A bit more variety, especially for children, and fresher produce would help make it an excellent stay for us.
