Convenient location near most of the tourist activities and Castello district. Rooms were clean and staff were great. Only complaint would be the lack of working facilities. A couple of plugs didn’t work and the AC was very temperamental.

Other neighborhoods around Historic Castle District

On the Sardinian dialect Cagliari is called Casteddu – castle. The first thing you will see when you arrive at the center of the old town are definitely ramparts built in the 19th century. Once you climb the stairs you will come to a huge terrace with wooden benches and tall palm trees. What you should not miss is sunset. It would be a shame to come in Cagliari and not take a look at sunset from the Bastione Saint Remy. #goldenhour
