Villa Michelangelo
Designed in the Palladian style, Villa Michelangelo was built in the 18th century as the country house of the aristocratic Tomi family of Vicenza. During the last century, the villa changed hands several times, but managed to retain its period charm with its original walnut beams, highly polished Venetian floor, as well as by the manicured grounds. Due to its elevated position on the slopes of the Berici Hills the hotel offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
The hotel features a swimming pool with a retractable roof and sun-loungers offering views across the Berici Hills. Encircling the hotel, the five hectares of grounds form a captivating backdrop and are very much worth exploring, playing host as they do to ancient trees, an olive grove and a thick forest.
