15 Best Luxury & Boutique Hotels to Book in Italy - AFAR
"A thousand-year-old castle and sprawling country estate in Umbria transformed by Count Benedikt Bolza into a timeless boutique hotel that emphasizes thoughtful craftsmanship and slow living. The 36 guest rooms and suites feature four-poster beds, wood-beam ceilings and bespoke furniture and lighting designed by the count; small practical luxuries (hidden sockets, custom espresso machines) are everywhere. The estate encourages simple countryside pursuits—gathering wildflowers, horseback riding—and aims to make guests slow down and embrace the rural rhythm." - Laura Itzkowitz, Erica Firpo
