Room types

B&B Alla Fortezza offers two types of accommodation designed for different needs: a cozier double room and a larger junior suite arranged over two areas. Both share some basic features such as a private bathroom with bidet, air conditioning, flat-screen TV, minibar and soundproofed walls, elements that guarantee a good level of comfort regardless of the choice.

What sets the two options apart is mainly the size and layout of the spaces: the Deluxe Double Room overlooks the castle and garden with a private patio, while the Junior Suite, considerably larger, features a living area separate from the bedroom and offers glimpses of the sea as well as a private balcony. Those traveling in larger groups or wanting more independence will find the suite the more suitable choice.
