    Amazing boutique hotel. The interior is fabulous, our room was spacious and the whole feel of the hotel was so nice. The breakfast was delicious - continental, so don't expect a large hot buffet, but ideal for the warm Italian temperatures....

Property information

On the opposite side flows Via Giuseppe Pasolini. It is precisely on this site that the Forum of Roman Ravenna opened. In the first house of this street, a plaque recalls the existence of a church, precisely "S. Maria in Foris ". In the wall of the villa built in the '70s, probably an architrave in which the following inscription is carved: ECCL-P-S.M-FORIS-REST-MDCVII. Santa Maria Foris, just 100 meters away, near the most important monuments of Unesco, also has a garden and a library where you can relax.

Neighbourhood information

Visiting the city of Ravenna is like taking a trip back in time: there are countless monuments and views that make this city unique in the world. Among its ancient walls is preserved the richest heritage of mosaics of humanity dating back to the fifth and sixth centuries. For this reason, eight of its early Christian and Byzantine religious buildings have been recognized as World Heritage by UNESCO. They are: the Mausoleum of Galla Placidia, built in the 5th century AD to host the sister of Emperor Honorius after his death, it preserves inside the most ancient mosaic circuit of the city, famous above all for its splendid starry sky; the Neonian Baptistery, counted among the oldest monuments of the city, is known above all for the wonderful mosaic of the dome, built by the will of Bishop Neone (from whom the baptistery takes its name); the Basilica of Sant'Apollinare Nuovo, built in the VI century AD at the behest of Emperor Theodoric, it is characterized by the typical cylindrical bell tower and the rich mosaic decoration, which unravels for the entire length of the central nave and the apse basin
