Great room in a real palazzo
Great room, with wonderful ceilings and a separate sitting room. The location is perfect for sightseeing and convenient for the airport. Reception is not open after 2000 but a staff member is available to let you in. Would definitely recommend.

We had a lovely time. Staff was very helpful. Conveniently located, very walkable area, for shopping, sights and dining. The only negative was, the bed frame extended beyond the mattress and was a constant problem as we kept smashing our knees into it.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Il B&B non corrisponde alle foto, probabilmente fatte diversi anni fa, e a quanto descritto nel sito. Insonorizzazione inesistente, stanza con forte odore di fumo impregnato nei tessuti e bagno, non in camera, dal quale arrivava un olezzo di fogna tale da non poter dormire. Abbiamo prenotato due notti ma la seconda abbiamo preferito passarla in una nuova struttura. Nessun rimborso offerto per il disagio e per la notte non fruita. Grazie a hotel.com per il supporto prestato. Non torneremo più in questo B&B, un vero peccato perché è in una buona posizione rispetto al centro città.

Great, safe stay for solo traveller.
The staff at the Palazzo Bruca were incredible! They were very accommodating for an earlier check in and to assist with securing me transport for a very early morning flight to Rome. The room was clean and comfortable. Access in felt safe after hours. The location was perfect in the town centre with easy access to all the historical sights and tour companies. Highly recommend!

The staff was very helpful and lovely, the room was clean and comfortable. The location was great, close to the Duomo area and lots of cafes. The only suggestion I have is for some towel bars or hooks. There were zero options to hang a damp towel, no bars, hooks, or racks. We hung them like a cape on a hanger in the armoire which wasn't ideal, but the only option.
