Recharge in the spacious hotel rooms with indulgent bedding, free Wi-Fi, marble bathrooms, large flat-panel TVs and most of the rooms offer private balconies.
You can start your day in the fitness center before a delicious breakfast which is included or during our stay, why not enjoy their great Mediterranean cuisine and specialty cocktails on the outdoor terrace at the hotel’s restaurant Moscati.
