    breathtaking view
    spacious suite
    poor sound insulation
    drainage issues
    nighttime disturbances

    The suite offered a breathtaking river view, along with ample space and a modern feel that made the stay comfortable. Staff members were consistently friendly and available, enhancing the experience with helpful recommendations for nearby eateries. However, sound insulation from the street was lacking, leading to disturbances during the night, which impacted sleep quality. Additionally, the shower drainage was less than ideal, requiring some attention to improve the overall comfort.

    clean amenities
    cramped shower
    poor sound insulation

    The hotel is clean and tidy, with good amenities.

    I was extremely disappointed with my stay at La Torre Del Cestello. The shower was shockingly cramped, making it impossible to shower without hitting the walls. Additionally, the sound insulation was terrible. every word from the neighboring room echoed through my space, making sleep a challenge.

    finding the hotel

    We absolutely loved our spacious suite with stunning river views, and the extra couch beds were a nice touch for my mom. The hotel had great spots to relax, especially the cozy lounge area and the terrace that overlooked the river. I did struggle a bit finding the place at first, but overall, it was such a wonderful experience! 😊

    charming building
    street noise

    The charming traditional building adds a unique character to the experience, which is enhanced by the river view from the balcony.

    Unfortunately, the noise from the street was quite disruptive during the night, making it difficult to get a good rest.

    generic decor
    poor drainage

    i had high expectations for La Torre Del Cestello, but alas, my room’s decor was as generic as a chain hotel. not to mention the drainage in the shower was quite pathetic. i almost thought about writing a glowing review, but then realized i didn’t receive any complimentary gestures, which would’ve been nice. shocking!

    great location
    modern rooms
    quiet atmosphere
    small lift

    Had a great time staying with friends. The location is ideal, close to the river with restaurants and bars nearby. Rooms were comfortable and modern, and it’s super quiet at night. We enjoyed exploring local eateries and highly recommend the café next door for breakfast. It’s a perfect base for sightseeing without the tourist crowds.

    We faced a bit of an issue with the small lift during our stay. It’s definitely not a deal-breaker, but just something to note if you're packing heavily.

    courtyard location
    local eateries
    sound insulation
    neighboring noise

    Beautiful courtyard and great location

    My stay was enjoyable, as the charming courtyard really added to the experience. The location is fantastic, just outside the busy tourist area yet close enough to explore the main attractions, with plenty of local eateries nearby. However, the sound insulation could be improved, as I could hear conversations from neighboring rooms.

    cute staff

    Couple seeking a cozy stay

    When we arrived a little late, the night porter was there to let us in, helped us feel welcome right away! It felt just like home, everything was warm and comfortable.

    It wasn’t exactly budget-friendly, but we found it acceptable.
