Absolutely loved our stay here! The Castello San Marco really is charming! The property is beautiful, the room was extremely spacious and comfortable, the breakfast was fantastic, and we can't say enough about how lovely the staff was! Alexandra and Flavia were so wonderful and helpful with everything we asked for. We would stay there again any time!

The hotel has magnificent views and terraces. Breakfast is very good and the staff is very polite and helpful. Our room was comfortable and clean. The bathroom was a little dated, but also clean.
