Castello Chiola

Enjoyed the quiet and slower pace. A great place to get away!

Stayed for two nights, Saturday and Sunday, second time we have stayed and second time we loved our stay. Beautiful building and lovely rooms with amazing views. The restaurant seems to be quiet but exceptional service and food. A couple of minor downsides. The hotel is very popular for weddings (I can see why!) but this means that it can be quite noisy some nights. Not much seating or sun loungers near the pool so if there is a forementioned wedding party there is a very slim chance of a spot around the pool. Parking might be tight aswell!

Huge rooms; an enormously spacious hotel. The lighting at night from a distance and up close is amazing. A hotel with huge feel good factor. Let Mateus choose your wine for you at dinner!

High on the hill top, excellent site, this converted Castle offers so much. Staff are to be commended. Wifi unavailable in the rooms only in the ground floor communal areas. I can't comment on the restaurant ,as inexplicably, without prior notice, it was closed on the Sunday evening that we stayed.

very pleasant and enjoyable.

My husband and I visited this area at a friend's recommendation and were delighted to discover the Abruzzo region. This hotel is found in a small town in the historic centre and provides a wonderful view over the area. The standard bedroom was huge , comfortable, light with a very adequate bathroom. Public lounge area was impressive with a charming obliging drinks waiter at the bar. Reception staff went out of their way to help us and even volunteered to act as interpreter for us at a meeting with the relative of our friend for over an hour .Great base for exploring the area. Internet access in public area only was a bit frustrating and breakfast was good but not great however for the price we considered it great value. Make sure you visit restaurants in the surrounding area esp Michelin star restaurants as excellent value in this part of the world as well as the Agritourism restaurants. Drive up to the hotel entrance may seem a bit daunting but parking pretty easy when we were there.

Stunning hotel, very friendly staff, great little town with friendly people.

Absolutely the best in the area

The hotel is a jewel. The location can be challenging the first time but then it is a breeze and worth the effort. The staff are very accommodating and helpful, the food in the restaurant was great and the breakfast capuccini were wonderful. The room was spacious (huge actually) and very comfortable. The only downside for those who need to be connected at all times is that they only have wifi in the lounge next to the lobby and it is not available in the rooms. To say the view of the local countryside is picturesque is a major understatement.

A gorgeous hotel away from busy every day life. Rooms are extremely spacious and palatial. Service impeccable with friendly staff. Very quiet and the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the surrounding country side. Would definitely return
