CA’ ‘D Ricardo is a family-run guest house in the centre of Alba, in Piedmont, appreciated by guests especially for its location, rated with the maximum score by couples travelling together.

The area where the guest house is located is typical of Alba’s historic centre, just a few metres from inns and taverns such as Acquasale and Osteria Era Nuova, and only 500 metres from Alba train station. Cuneo-Levaldigi Airport is about 35 km away, convenient for those arriving from outside the region. A suitable address for those seeking a simple, well-positioned stay in the heart of the Langhe, away from large hotel complexes but close to everything needed to explore the city on foot.
CA’ ‘D Ricardo offers guests two room types, both designed to provide a practical and comfortable stay in the centre of Alba. All accommodations feature a private bathroom with shower, bidet and hairdryer, as well as a flat-screen TV, wardrobe or closet, electric kettle and bed linen included. Ceramic flooring and views of the quiet street characterise the simple, well-kept atmosphere of the rooms.
The range spans from the Triple Room, the most spacious at 45 square metres with two beds to accommodate up to three people, to the Double Room with Private Bathroom, more compact at 25 square metres but designed for couples seeking essential comfort without sacrificing quality. In both cases the guest house focuses on cleanliness and practical details rather than elaborate common areas, making it a functional choice for those visiting Alba for work or food and wine tourism.

More intimate than the Triple, this 25 sqm double room is designed for couples and overlooks a quiet street.
