In the beginning (1467) there was the 'Ram Inn'. Then came the 'Sun': now Albergo del Sole, one of the oldest hotels in the world was born. A precious piece of antiquity that expert restoration has brought back to its original splendour. An exclusive and intimate hotel far from the city chaos. Quality, courtesy, efficiency and helpfulness are the key-words of the hotel.
A TRADITION OF HOSPITALITY
A tradition of hospitality lost in history, first depicted in 1467, and later evoked and passed on by distinguished travellers throughout the centuries. Travellers like Ariosto who entrused his memories to the magic of his poetry, of J.P. Sartre who was a frequent along with Simone de Beauvoir.
