“Beautiful hotel in photogenic town”
We stayed just three nights in May, and had a wonderful time. The hotel is beautiful, in a fantastic position right in the heart of the town. For us its real delight was the garden, which has sun-loungers discreetly at the far end. The whole garden is beautifully kept, a hidden gem in a town with lots of flowers but no gardens. We had a garden room, No. 35, with its own balcony/terrace, which was a lovely place to sit. Rooms on the higher floors probably had better views, but I preferred having a good-sized private outdoor space, with a table and chairs, overlooking the lemon trees. The green and gold tiled cathedral dome is close by, and adds to the feeling that you are staying somewhere both scenic and historic . The staff are all very friendly and professional, and genuinely concerned that everything is as you want it. Breakfast on the terrace was a real treat - delicious food and lovely surroundings. The free wi-fi worked well. Being British we took a travel kettle and supplies of Earl Grey, and were glad that we had done so, as there wasn't a kettle in the room. That apart, I couldn't fault the Palazzo Murat, and would love to go back.
