Portalbera Holidays from AU$2,848

The hotel was modern, spacious, and very comfortable. I especially appreciated the space, the quality linens and towels, and good bath products—it felt like home after traveling through different cities in Italy. I also enjoyed the dining, everything we ordered was perfect! One inconvenience I had was the access to the hotel. I called the night before to ask whether I needed to arrange a taxi from the Somma Lombardo train station and was told taxis would be available outside. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. There were no official taxis—only a couple of local drivers with small cars that couldn’t accommodate our luggage. The walk from the station to the hotel is quite long, which made things difficult. Thankfully, a kind local helped my family and me get to the hotel safely. The staff at the lobby were nice and helpful when we arrived, I’m unsure about the misinformation on the taxi situation.

when it comes to location … this hotel is a gem! it was just tucked in enough to be in a quiet spot. if theres no major event going on like design week…. where youll hear loud music.. but it wont be for too long…but walk 2 mins in every direction youll be in the center of everything that there is to see that exceeded my expectations! Teatro alla scala is 3 mins from there… the duomo same walking distance rinascente ! hop on bus stops restaurants shops including the metro… nothing seemed too far away to walk we got a spacious room and a nice breakfast… they could use more variety in the menu.. the company for pick up from the airport and drop off was very nice…excellent drivers and very friendly we had a good experience… personnel was very accommodating and friendly…. the furniture is a little worn out .. and they could provide more toiletries…and the mattress could be more comfortable … if you are looking for the “hotel experience” where u want to feel pampered this isn't it….. but if you make location a priority this place is clean and youll get a decent room and stay.

Great boutique hotel. Will return!

The Rosapetra Spa was very lovely and had the most amazing views of the surrounding mountains. The staff was nice on arrival. The room was beautiful but lacked the 5 star luxury I was hoping for. The Spa was quite beautiful and had various saunas but the most beautiful sauna was off limits and we were scolded by the spa staff when we used it but not one staff member said it was closed. It was annoying but I have to say the spolier was the American couple who made a scene in the spa was they saw someone naked. To all Americans- its Europe-if you go to a spa be prepared to see nakedness. I have to say what really impressed me the most was the restaurant. It was fantastic. Everything we ate was amazing and the service was impeccable.
