Gelso Bianco—where luxury meets laid-back charm, and the showers could double as alien technology. We stayed in not one, but two rooms. First, the lovely Luisa: charming, cozy, and home to the shower that NASA may want back. You’d better be ready for an instructional lesson here. My husband adored it, happily playing intergalactic shower pilot while I watched him experiment with buttons and levers, possibly trying to communicate with Mars. Then there’s Gelso—the room. Let’s just say, Luisa is cute, but Gelso is her fabulous, more spacious older sister. The bathtub in Gelso? Not saying it’s what lured us there, but it didn’t hurt. Now, on to the real star: the food! Upon arrival we mentioned about being hungry and the owner surprised us with snacks and a refreshing lack of culinary ego: “I don’t know how to cook, but I know where everything is in the kitchen.” And they know how to stock the kitchen for dinner, because everything that came out of that kitchen was, in a word, fantastic. Special shoutout to Mario—the young server on his path to becoming a sommelier. This guy is a walking encyclopedia of wine, which he charmingly used to get us tipsy by the first half of dinner (we asked for it). His passion for wine made our tastebuds (and heads) buzz with excitement. If you’re looking for a countryside escape with quirky charm, unforgettable food, and a young sommelier who could make a glass of water feel like a tasting experience, Gelso Bianco Country Resort is the spot. Just bring your sense of adventure (and maybe a manual for that shower).

The structure is very nice. We stayed in the attic and to sleep we saw that the roof made of wooden beams was beautiful. The room was huge, we had very comfortable spaces and the bathroom was clean, well equipped and spacious. The instructions for the automatic check-in (we arrived very late and left very early for our needs) were very clear and simple, as was the payment method. The staff were very friendly even though we never met them in person. They prepared a very respectable breakfast for us with pancakes and things in the fridge. Really great.

Booked a three night stay at this hotel on 11th April 2024, on arrival to this hotel we was only then informed that the Swimming pool was not in use due to it being seasonal, to which we was not informed of and we only booked this hotel due to it having a pool so we was very disappointed. We informed them we was not informed of this on your website and the two receptionist just looked at each other and said its seasonal. the next day we went to reception to inform them that the heated tail rail and air con was not working in our room number 86 to be told they was looking into this and we complained three times only to be fogged off and nothing was done to rectify the problems. To which we found this very disappointing and it ruined are break away. We emailed the hotel to complain about the issues we had when we returned home but they didn't even have the courtesy to email us back.

Very beautiful location, nicely kept buildings, large room. Comfy bed. Pleasant atmosphere overall. You definitely need a car, but you may also have nice walks within the large (and safe) property. The price is Ok, given that accomodation is very expensive in the area.

This is quite an old fashioned hotel, in a very good way - like the hotels your parents couldn't afford to bring you to when you were a child, if you are a middle-class European. This should be a big plus to many guests, it certainly was to me. I travel a lot these days, stay in a lot of hotels and generally view them with a deeply jaded eye, it's refreshing to find one's cynicism confounded once in a while. My wife and I managed to get ourselves stranded in Bologna, after the last public transport connection to our distant residence in the mountains had been missed. We booked a suite at the last moment, it was very good value, the receptionist spoke English very well and we were treated with courtesy and respect throughout - even though we must have looked like a couple of derelicts after a day walking around in the heat. The bed was comfortable and, although the USB charger took a bit of finding (on the TV) it was definitely there. The water was hot and the whole place was sparkling clean. The old fashioned air conditioning worked, properly, which is unhappily not always the case these days. The breakfast was excellent too. We were called a taxi and went on our way well satisfied. If you're looking for something up to the moment and cutting edge, this is not for you. To me and people like me, it is a breath from an older, better time - shining like a good deed in a naughty world. For the avoidance of doubt, I liked it.
