Here's how to restore a late 18th-century palazzo in the heart of a lovely Baroque town: have fun, put your passion into it and embrace the original character and history of the building. This is what the owner of Palazzo Gorgoni has done! Meticulously, lovingly and luxuriously brought back to life over the last few years, Palazzo Gorgoni charms, delights and pampers in equal measure. The amount of space is only one of the many surprises in store for guests who, even after a week in residence still find themselves chuckling and cooing at the wonder of it all.

5 out of 5 for Palazzo Gorgoni.

CS, United States of America July 2022

Palazzo Gorgoni is an incredible experience. Our trip was made more special by meeting the owners and spending time with them whilst we stayed. Learning about the history of the palazzo and the renovation efforts first-hand added an extra level of appreciation to the stay.

DP, Australia October 2016

All guests enjoyed the experience at Palazzo Gorgoni very much. The pool area was fantastic.

Mr Peter Evers, Australia July 2016

My husband and I spent a perfectly wonderful week at Palazzo Gorgoni with our children and grandchildren. The Palazzo is spectacular and has been modernized while at the same time maintaining the original architectural features that one would expect in a sumptuous palace. The domestic help does everything possible to make your stay flawless. We especially adored the housekeeper. She goes out of her way to please and is a lovely person. There are charming places to visit and have lunch which are not very far from the Palazzo. We have travelled extensively all over the world and staying at Palazzo Gorgoni was a special treat!

Eileen Herman, United States June 2014

Our stay at Palazzo Gorgoni was a total delight... The staff were wonderful, cheerful, and ready to help in any way they could. Great crew. The two dinners they catered for the twelve of us were fun. They should be commended... It is clear that a lot of attention and taste has been poured into the renovation of this historic building, and the results are visually spectacular. I see from some magazines lying around the study that it has been noticed and covered by lifestyle magazines, and we all felt that it deserved the spreads and kudos.
