Guest Reviews

• moreno (10/5): - Personale gentile e disponibile residenza antica ma molto carina. Ottima colazione
• Maurizia (8/5): - L'accoglienza e disponibilità del sig. Renato L'arredamento della camera
• Martina (4/5): Enttäuschend! - Die Lage Das Zimmer war ein Gebastel. Das Bad wurde nachträglich rein gebaut und war mit einer Treppe zu erreichen. Das Fenster und Läden im Bad konnte man kaum öffnen. Die Dusche funktionierte sehr schlecht, wenig Wasser Heiss/ Kalt- Einstellung schwierig. Das Frühstück war sehr mager und ausser ein paar Erdbeeren nichts Frisches. Auch kein Käse, Fleisch oder frisches Brot. Zudem laut, ständig Tv oder mobile Geräusche! Die 9.2 Bewertung ist irreführend. Schade!
• Giovanni (10/5): -
• Aurelio Arevalo Rodrigue (10/5): Recomendable - Es un antiguo palacio. Muy bien. Lo enrevesado de llegar con el coche, con unas calles muy estrechas y difícil de maniobrar. Hubo suerte. El encargado, Renato, un poco pillo: pide 10 euros por noche por el coche, y en la página de Booking, pone 8. Y espera a que te estés marchando, para pedir el dinero, y no tener más remedio que pagar al contado. Un detalle que no daña al lugar

• MaryTerySnow (9/5): - Posizione top e e grande accoglienza
• marco (9/5): Rilassante - La posizione
• Fabrizio_S. (8/5): Perugia non delude mai, per un weekend è una meta ottimale e non costosa. - Gestore gentilissimo e disponibile (volendo si può mangiare a un loro ristorante nelle vicinanze), struttura in palazzo d'epoca, dotazioni attempate ma ancora efficienti. Stanza molto ampia. Colazione buona. WI-FI ok. Condizionatore a pompa di calore rumoroso.
• Gino (10/5): - Esperienza semplicemente fantastica! Il proprietario è una persona squisita: gentilissimo, sempre presente e disponibile per qualsiasi necessità. Ci ha aiutati in modo straordinario risolvendo anche un problema di parcheggio dopo il checkout, tenendo la nostra auto custodita fino al termine delle visite in città: un gesto davvero raro e super apprezzato. La struttura è assolutamente consigliatissima, non c’è davvero nulla da migliorare. In più, la posizione è eccezionale: pieno centro storico, comodissima per visitare Viterbo interamente a piedi. Torneremo sicuramente!
• fernando (10/5): - La posizione
• Leandro Catena (8/5): Notte a Viterbo - Palazzo storico, colazione buona, disponibilità del proprietario
• silvio (8/5): -
• Chiara (10/5): -
• marco (7/5): Viterbo e dintorni - Renato fa vertiginosamente alzare la valutazione della struttura che si presenta un pò datata e non molto curata nei dettagli. La pulizia è buona la colazione andrebbe un pò rivista sia per la qualita dei prodotti sia per la presentazione. A nostro avviso, trattandosi di una struttura davvero comoda per il centro, andrebbero meglio curati i particolari. Comodo la disponibilità del parcheggio chiuso(a pagamento) e ottima la locanda consigliata da Renato. Il riscaldamento in camera è con un condizionatore (un pò rumoroso) che si attiva solo una volta inserita la chiave elettronica per cui la stanza risulta non adeguatamente riscaldata, c'è da dire che le giornate del nostro soggiorno erano molto fredde,
• Luciano (9/5): - Colazione varia ed abbondante Ottima posizione Disponibilità posto auto coperto
• Riccardo (9/5): - Ottima posizione , camera accogliente . Renato è stato un ottimo host.
• manuela (10/5): - Posizone centrale e davvero vicina alle maggiori attrazioni della città, palazzo storico dai bellissimi arerdi e decori. Renato titolare gentilissimo e pronto ad assistere gli ospiti in ogni richiesta o consiglio
• Luis (1/5): -
• nadia (8/5): -
• gianpiero (9/5): posto caratteristico, grande affabilità - colazione nella norma
• Luciano (8/5): - La posizione La disponibilità Gli spazi La colazione Struttura un po' da svecchiare
• INFO (10/5): Posizione eccellente (Titolare eccezionale) - La disponibilità del titolare, (venivano da un esperienza super negativa presso altra struttura) ci ha.messo a nostro agio dandoci tutte le indicazioni necessarie e facendoci sentire come a casa. La posizione è strepitosa l unico rimpianto è non essere riusciti ad andare a mangiare a loro ristorante Non ho cose da indicare sicuramente ci possono essere piccole migliorie ma noi abbiamo soggiornato nella festa di santa Rosa ed è stato tutto di 🏃‍♀️..

• Giampaolo (9/5): -
• Laviano (7/5): -
• Mackenzie (6/5): Hidden place hidden costs - The room was good and the building had some good history. Hard to find and there was a hidden cost for parking the car. I was also asked to depart at 8.00am, I negotiated to 9.30am.
• Martino Antonio (9/5): -
• Federico (9/5): - Soprattutto la professionalità del proprietario sempre disponibile puntuale sorridente: voto 10 e lode! Unico suggerimento per la colazione: aggiungerei qualcosa di salato, ma per gusto personale Nulla
• Gloria (10/5): - Staff eccezionale, cortese ed estremamente disponibile. Ampia camera in un bellissimo palazzo al centro di Viterbo. La possibilità di poter usufruire di un parcheggio interno è un grande plus.
• Travelling (10/5): Wonderful place in the middle of old Viterbo! - To start with, the location is not only excellent (right in the middle of historical Viterbo, walking distance to most things), but you also have parking inside (and space for normal-sized cars too), which can be a life saver when travelling by car. Nice (and very clean) room, and for a very reasonable price (have been to city accommodations half as good for twice the price). Also provided disposable indoor slippers, which is instantly a +1. Lastly, can mention that the owner also has a nearby restaurant (c. 2min walk), called La Chimera, which I can strongly recommend. I do not normally give 10/10 unless very deserving, i.e. going above and beyond, but this place deserves it. The host cannot speak much English, but make it up through effort and enthusiasm, so you will still understand in the end (with or without Google translate). Breakfast was ok, but almost only sweets, so some less sugary stuff as well could be good. Some of the toiletries just lasted, so not a big issue, but if providing more then would not have to ration. Can also be a bit difficult to find (more so since some streets are currently closed-off due to construction).
• Elaine (10/5): Exceptional -
• Leigh (10/5): A nice relaxing weekend, with no problems. - The position is fantastic, right in the centre, once you have parked your car in the garage, you can visit the whole historic centre on foot. Palazzo Riario is a very old building, 16th century, I think, but it was very comfortable, warm, we were there in November, full of character. Senor Renato was incredibly helpful with directions, helping with luggage, taking care of the car etc. The breakfast was very good, typically Italian with fresh cornetti , crostata , ciambellone and yogurt etc., the coffe is very good , we didn't go hungry. We also suggest going to Renato's Restaurant, excellent!!! Nothing
• Ozlenen (10/5): Wonderful location and accommodation with a warm welcome -
• Périn (10/5): Excellent - Thé location is very central in a small road so very quiet. The room was fine, the breakfast excellent with handmade pastries. The landlord Renato is amazing. Always available.
• Jose (10/5): Exceptional -
• Giorgia (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anette (10/5): Fantastic - Most beautiful place Very friendly Special
• Nina (9/5): Very nice palazzo! -
• dancelikedaviddanced (2/5): Find another Hotel - Good & Bad. One night only September 5th. Typical room for a three star hotel. Not a lot of restaurant choice’s nearby. Not sure if Renato is the owner, but seems a one man operation. He recommended a pizza place about a five minute walk. The pizza, salad & wine was excellent. We were surprised to find Renato working at the pizza restaurant. After breakfast the next morning which was fine, we mentioned we only had one large bath towel. Renato came to our room, looked around and said “ not possible”. I told he we did not take his towel and he could check our luggage. Renato kept repeating “no possible “. We had to pay him 20 euros. TERRIBLE shake down for money. We are Marriott Lifetime Elite Titanium, legit travelers. On a self guided bike tour is the only reason we stayed at this awful place.
• Sophia (10/5): Exceptional -
• Paul (8/5): Very good -
• Lorenzo (9/5): Superb -
• Adriana (7/5): It's a good choice : good value! - The Location and the staff. You are close to the principal places in Viterbo! The owner is very kind. I didn't like the breakfast.
• Maria (9/5): Superb -
• Valentina (10/5): Exceptional - Great value for money, kind and friendly host, warm welcome
• Maria (10/5): Great place, will definitely come again and recommend to my friends - Beautiful palazzo, cozy, well equipped room, well heated (in winter it is very important). Host Renato was very friendly and efficient. Good location, easy to find, close to all places of interest. Renato runs an excellent restaurant Chimera also nearby.
• bhdiamond2 (10/5): Charming medieval palazzo - We stayed here October 20th as our one-night stop in Viterbo on the Via Francigena walk to Rome. It’s charm is that it is a 14th century palace and does not look like a hotel from the outside. Our room was very comfortable and the proprietor very genial. After walking that day from Montefiascone , we were ready for a hearty dinner. The owner recommended La Chimera, which he also owns and was just a short walk away. The restaurant was charming with a grotto-like atmosphere and the food was great. As others have mentioned, there is a steep flight of stairs from the exterior door to the lobby, but the accommodation was well with the climb.
• Marco (8/5): Gita a Viterbo - Esperienza piacevole. Ottima accoglienza....consiglio il ristorante La Chimera!!!....
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent location. Very close to major attractions and to public parking. The service provided by Renato was outstanding.
• Alessandro (10/5): Ottimo. Grazie Renato! - Accoglienza e assistenza durante il soggiorno molto positiva, mai ricevuta prima! Renato è molto gentile, disponibile, presente. Davvero una location molto consigliata per un soggiorno nella città di Viterbo!
• fabio ottorino (10/5): posto super consigliato - Location bellissima e rimessa a nuovo in maniera ottima. Consigliatissimo ma unico problema il parcheggio perché è all'interno delle mura di Viterbo, ma cmq il posto rimane consigliatissimo anche perchè il proprietario è molto gentile
• Whitfield (8/5): An interesting location - An interesting experience as the hotel is in old part of the town and a challenging to find
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Il gestore è incredibilmente efficiente e disponibile, forse il migliore visto finora.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Tutto OK. Proprietario Gentilissimo e disponibilissimo

• Verified traveler (8/5): - Ottima accoglienza da parte del Gestore,Ottima posizione
• Giuseppe (10/5): Esperienza molto positiva - La cortesia del proprietario, il fascino della stanza, la posizione centralissima, l'utilità del parcheggio hanno reso la nostra esperienza molto positiva. Assolutamente consigliabile.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful place in a beautiful town. Friendly staff. Clean.
• Nana_JP (8/5): Great location - Right in the old city center and close walking distance to everything you want to see. Rooms are basic but clean and the beds comfortable. The staff is very friendly and helpful. There are stairs to climb to get into the BnB.
• Chris (10/5): - This property is wonderful!! Rinallo is the owner and he is fabulous. I would highly recommend this hotel
• Fabio (10/5): - il sig. Renato è gentilissimo, ci ha accolto con cortesia e professionalità. il palazzo è in centro, perfetto per gustare la città a piedi e preludio ad un'immersione nell'atmosfera medievale e rinascimentale di Viterbo!
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Grazioso b&b in pieno centro, colaxione opzionale, molto comodo garage
• Verified traveler (8/5): Una notte a palazzo Riario - Ospitalità, cortesia e professionalità, ottima l'accoglienza, ambiente pulito e confortevole, ci tornerei
• Domenico (10/5): Eccezzionele - Professionalità,cordialità,pulizia per non parlare della colazione,nel complesso eccezzionele,posto centrale anche con garage,facile da arrivarci anche con l'aiuto del proprietario.
• Fabiana (10/5): Tutto bellissimo! - Hotel confortevole e accogliente nel centro storico della città. Siamo stati accolti in modo impeccabile da una persona disponibile e cordialissima. Colazione varia e ottima.
• paolo (8/5): Pregevole edificio nel centro storico di Viterbo - Posizione ottima in pieno centro storico, titolare gentile, disponibile ed attento ad ogni esigenza sin dal nostro arrivo. Camera comoda e silenziosa al primo piano di un palazzo storico, colazione abbondante che prevede però la sola parte dolce.
• N4770KGnatalier (8/5): Unique Medievil Lodging - Part hotel, part BnB, but certainly unique. Built right into the interior of an original medieval house/palace. Centrally located in the middle of the ancient town though initially hard to find the entrance. Rooms with character, ours with a canopied bed and the bathroom up on a lofted level. Continental breakfast was included (not hot).
• vjb1968 (8/5): Review of March 19 – 22, 2018 stay - I stayed at Palazzo Riario from March 19 – 22, 2018. I saw on some reviews that it was hard to find but I did not find that to the case. I walked from the train station (Viterbo Porta Romana) which is about 1/2 mile/700 m away. There are only 3 turns (2 once inside the walls). I had checked a map beforehand, used Googlemap streetview, written down the directions, etc. I guess if the other reviewers did not mention that they found it hard to find I would not have done that and I would now be writing that it was hard to find. Once you get towards the end of Via della Torre you just have to turn the corner and find the door. I will admit that once at the door, I was not sure it was the right one since it did not open. However, you need to ring the bell – it is not like a regular hotel where you walk in the door. At least not during March – not sure about high season. Anyway, I rang the bell and was let in by the gentleman who worked there. He showed me in and explained how to get in the hotel and the room with my room card, how to use the heater, lights, etc. I think I might have been the only guest; I saw him twice more during my three night stay and did not see anyone else. I had booked a single room but I think I got a bigger one since it was off season. It was bigger than other singles I have had in Italy. I did not opt to have the breakfast at the hotel. The room was clean and large enough for me. One of the light fixtures needed to be repaired but I left a note for that so hopefully it was fixed by now. It is in a great location, though I think the anywhere in town would be a great location. You do need to walk up two flights of stairs inside the hotel to get to the lobby. I do not know if there is an elevator but if you need one, you had best inquire about it before booking. I would stay there again if I were to visit Viterbo. It is really a great little town.
• 759PatrickG759 (8/5): Ice cubes fall from heaven - Through a thunderstorm and a cold rain of ice cube thick hale, we managed to find this Palazzo in Viterbo. The receptionist was quick and very effective. Rooms good: no complaints. During a hike, these hotels are more than convenient for one night's stay. Very good neighbourhood too.
