“A cave hotel with medieval romance in a magnificent hilltop setting. Very unusual rooms and suites with vaulted ceilings, sandstone walls, and standalone bathtubs with burning log fires. Delicious food, cooking lessons, and spectacular views. Definite wow factor for honeymooners or romantic breaks.”

Hotel review

At Albergo Diffuso, meaning "scattered hotel," in the breathtaking Abruzzo mountains, just two hours east of Rome, a once-forgotten hamlet has been lovingly restored, embracing and reviving local traditions such as soap-making and wool-spinning, which now thrive once more. Immerse yourself in the rich history and vibrant culture of this remarkable destination. This exceptional hotel set in the rock face with rooms and suites constructed out of vaulted caves inspires the sort of chivalric romance reminiscent of the medieval era. 6 suites and 12 rooms all set in caves with stone laid bare, fireplaces and standalone baths. It's unlike anything you could imagine from a hotel.

Discover the enchanting world of Sextantio Albergo Diffuso, nestled within the medieval fortified village of Santo Stefano di Sessanio in the picturesque Abruzzo region. This unique property boasts 28 rooms, a wine bar, a restaurant, a meeting room, and a reception, all scattered throughout separate buildings that were once barns, stables, wine cellars, and lodgings for farmers and shepherds.

Prepare to be captivated as wood and stone cottages have been meticulously transformed into luxurious suites, each exuding its own distinctive charm. Experience the romance of tying the knot in the village dungeons, now transformed into a stunning wedding venue, or conduct your business affairs in the former lair of a witch, now repurposed as a captivating meeting space. Somehow Sextantio Albergo Diffusomanages to provide excellent food and cooking lessons from its cavernous lair. Wonderful.
