Il Granaio dei Casabella

just spent a night here recently -- charming owners and staff -- al helpful and patient -- great value -- especially room 106 with a view to one of the paestum temples -- would highly recommend -- hearty and home-made breakfast.......

We stayed 2 nights at this charming hotel, well-located for touring the ancient ruins of Paestum, a short walk away to the entrance and museum. The hotel is a former barn turned into a lovely hotel, filled with interesting antiques from its past. The staff were outstanding and extremely helpful in making suggestions for local activities. Breakfast was a huge buffet with coffee made for us individually. Excellent! Our room was spacious, with a view of the the ruins. I had been expecting to see the temples well-lit from my window, but do know that they are are some distance away, it’s not as if you’re seeing it close up. We loved touring the ruins of Paestum and highly recommend seeing the museum as well. We also had a fantastic lunch at Barlotti Buffalo farm, recommended by the lovely staff at the hotel), and though we didn’t do a paid tour, we were allowed to walk around and look at the animals closeup. It was clearly offseason here in mid-October, as the hotel was practically empty when we arrived, which felt a bit odd at first. reason for the 4* We visited in mid-October, so out of high season, and it was pretty empty when we arrived, so it felt a bit odd. Fortunately, the lovely staff made us feel very welcome and, later, a few more people arrived, so it didn’t feel so strange. We were very comfortable here and the reason for the 4* instead of 5* is that the bed was hard and not very comfortable.

Il Granaio dei Casabella is a former granary which was converted into an estate, then converted again into guest rooms for tourists. Our room was safe, clean, and comfortable with a modern bathroom. The bed, however, was a little firm for our taste. The main building offers a couple of nice rooms for sitting, reading, and relaxing. The grounds are beautifully landscaped with flowering vines and shrubs. Small birds roost in the vines and twitter at sundown. The buildings seethe with old world charm. Veronica will be your hostess, and she is as helpful as she is adorable. The buffet style breakfast includes house-baked sweets and cornetti as well as the usual cheeses and meats. A liveried attendant will prepare your hot beverages, eggs, and crepes. Il Grenaio offered the best cornetti and one of the best cappuccinos on our 17-day trip. This lodging is within easy walking distance to the Paestum archeological site. This is one of those places which make you feel good about yourself at a price you can afford.

Absolutely wonderful place to stay! Quaint, clean, and comfortable inn. Very convenient to the ruins. The staff was exceptionally courteous and helpful. Truly exceptional!

The property is lovely, authentic. The staff and kind owner go above and beyond to make your stay wonderful. The room we had was large and so was bathroom. Breakfast was really nice and again staff was wonderful. Location across the street from the temples which was perfect.

great place and very friendly

This place is amazing. excellent breakfast.. beautiful gardens. and great hospitality. very clean and comfortable beds. the owners even fixed my shoe overnight when i had a problem with the sole. this is the best place to stay if visiting the ruins of paestum

This is a cool property and very convenient to town and ruins. Breakfast was nice with an amazing assortment of homemade goodies. However, there could be an improvement in amenities in the bathroom and room. Very few toiletries offered. No hair dryer.

Hotel and rooms were nicely decorated in old world charm which was both welcoming and comfortable. Room came with complimentary bottled water and breakfast. Hotel uses eco-friendly biodegradable local amenities. Very convenient to Paestum archeological site.

Very near ruins. Exceptional and professional staff. We were very comfortable and the rooms of the property were very clean, nicely decorated and comfortable!
