Martelletti

Top Romantic Hotel

It was incredibly beautiful -- both the town and the historic building the hotel is in. The staff is soooo nice and speaks English, even remembers little things you liked the day before. The food was some of the best I've had in my life. It was a little hard to find -- get gps! The bell tower tolls every hour starting at 7am!

Nice, cozy, friendly, quiet. We were in Cocconato for three days, the staff was very helpful and friendly. We were traveling with a little child, who really enjoyed his stay, and was treated like a king. The food is excellent. The room comfortable, well furnished and well equipped.

The best Italian breakfast I have ever had. Their own make of Vermouth Classico

This locanda deserves its high rating.We found the owners to be helpful and hospitable. We stayed in a Junior suite (choose that as its marginally more expensive than a standard double). The room was very large with beautiful views over the valleys. Condition of the room and bathroom was excellent. We suggest you book for dinner. The food both for dinner and breakfast is of a very high standard. In fact after 4 weeks in Italy, I nominate the tagliolini with summer truffles as one of the best dishes I have had in Italy.It was sublime. The chef is obviously a master of pasta making. We would highly recommend this hotel for a weekend away in montferrato wine country.Lunch in the local trattoria was also excellent. The internet reception was not very good in the room, but we understand it works in the lounge area. Be aware that you need a car as this hotel is in a hilltop town, 30 kms from Asti.
