Villa Bertagnolli - Locanda Del Bel Sorriso

where to start? an absolutely amazing place, very difficult to find but so worth it once there! part way up a mountain, in the shadow of the dolomites overlooking a vineyard, the lushly planted grounds and stone buildings from 1600 are stunning. we enjoyed wandering around the buildings, courtyards, paths, gardens. hosts mariana and brother andrea were very friendly and enjoyable to talk to, telling us the history of the place and their family's involvement in it. mariana took us to our room which we never would have found on our own, down twisting hallways. but the view looking down on the vineyard and to the mountains was stunning. dinner in the on-site dining room was excellent, as was the extensive complimentary breakfast served in a charming stone building across the narrow driveway from the dining room/reception room. our room was very comfortable, large room, large bathroom, very private. loved our stay here!

We stayed 3 nights and really enjoyed our stay. The B&B is in the middle of the vineyard and has amazing mountain view. Our room was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The entire place is furnished with antiques so if you like bland corporate hotels, this is probably not for you. We loved the unique style of this property. We had dinner in the restaurant on Saturday night and it was delicious. The lady who runs the place is so helpful and made sure we were comfortable. Greatly recommended.

Were looking for something tipical and that's it, more: tha panorama was beautiful. I need to go to a congress in the city and that was very near, in a good position

Sehr freundlicher Empfang und spontaner Service bescherten uns nach Ankunft in strömendem Regen Pizza+Vino ins Zimmer geliefert da das Restaurant geschlossen hatte

Vi var klar over at vi ville nå hotellet seint på kvelden, og ringte derfor I god tid for å avklare dette. Vi fikk da beskjed om at det bare var å ringe på klokken utenfor porten når vi kom, og at noen da ville komme og åpne opp. Men at dette var ekstraservice og vi burde betale noe til personen som åpnet. Forsåvidt akseptabelt, men da vi ankom litt over midnatt var det ingen som kom og åpnet da vi ringte på ved porten. Vi forsøkte også å ringe tilgjengelige nr på tlf, men ingen respons. Resultatet var at vi matte finne et annet hotell I området som var døgnåpent og som selvsagt førte til at overnattingen ble mer enn dobbelt så dyr som planlagt.

Staying at a working winery was really different. Very beautiful one of a kind experience. Hotel staff made you feel very welcome. On site resturant prepared very tasty meals. Was a little out of the way but well worth the effort.

The hotel is a very old and lovingly restored property - much still needs to be done. But it is stunning and majestic

A 'very different' hotel experience in a hillside villa estate on the outskirts of Trento. The rooms are within an annex to the main villa, which looks like a large Alpine chalet. It is very quirky, in a nice way. It is a veritable maze of passages filled with eclectic antiques and ornaments. Although quite rustic, it has a vast amount of character. The dining hall is an elegant, vaulted cellar and the breakfast room is in a well appointed farm building. In warm weather there are covered verandahs with scenic views of the vineyards, hills and mountains. The owner is a lovely lady. The evening meals were of outstanding quality produced by her chef brother. Note that the hotel is a little difficult to find, a sat-nav is essential. Right on the edge of a vineyard, the entrance is down a gravel driveway and through an impressive stone archway gate.

Great hotel away from the chaos of Venice, free boat transfers, great breakfast, comfortable and a great price.

We booked 3 rooms with balcony for 3 nights. However we were allocated to 3 attic rooms without balconies. Air con is not working in the rooms so it was very hot during the day. Bathroom could do with an update. Toilet seats are not fitted properly. We had a laugh about this. Rooms had almost everything we needed for the stay. Food is serviced in the restaurant. Very tasty food but The portions are on the small side.The hotel is beautiful and situated in a very scenic location.
