Location & what to see

Hotel Ariston overlooks Piazza Giacomo Matteotti, the main square of Acqui Terme, a spa town in southern Piedmont famous since Roman times for its sulphurous waters and for the celebrated Bollente, the fountain that gushes at 75°C in the heart of the historic centre. Bars, pastry shops and traditional restaurants cluster around the property, including Trattoria Pappa & Vino just 20 metres away and Rinomata Pizzeria at 50 metres, ideal for a quick meal or a casual dinner.

Acqui Terme railway station is about 500 metres on foot, with connections to Asti, Alessandria and Genoa; the Visone station, on the local line, is 2.9 km away. Those arriving by car can rely on a private on-site car park, while the nearest airport, Genoa-Sestri, is about 40 km away, followed by Cuneo-Levaldigi Airport at 67 km. Parco Via Savonarola, useful for a walk or a run, can be reached in a few minutes on foot.

Acqui Terme is the starting point for exploring the hills of Monferrato, a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its wine-growing landscapes, with villages a short drive away. Cycling and trekking enthusiasts will find numerous trails among the vineyards, while the town’s thermal establishments remain active all year round, offering everything from thermal baths to wellness treatments. In summer, evenings in the square come alive with events and markets, while in autumn the area attracts food and wine enthusiasts thanks to the grape harvest and the truffles of the Langhe, a little further south.
