Il Giardinetto is a 3-star hotel in the centre of Vercelli, in Piedmont, featuring a garden, a guest terrace and an in-house restaurant closed only on Mondays. The property caters to those looking for a convenient base to explore the city on foot, with the Cathedral and the Avogadro Tower reachable in a few minutes’ walk, as well as those passing through the area by car thanks to the free on-street parking available.
The rooms, all air-conditioned and equipped with free WiFi, private bathroom, flat-screen TV and minibar, offer options with a double bed or with single beds, some with a balcony overlooking the inner courtyard. The furnishings are simple and functional, designed for a practical rather than luxurious stay.
The location is one of the strengths highlighted by guests, who give this aspect a particularly high score: Vercelli railway station is less than 500 metres away, while Milan Malpensa Airport is about 39 km away. Bars, pizzerias and inns are just a few steps from the entrance, making the property convenient for both business stays and tourist or cultural visits to the city.
Il Giardinetto offers two room types, both 20 square metres and designed to accommodate up to two people. All rooms are air-conditioned, equipped with a private bathroom, flat-screen TV, minibar, free WiFi and a desk, with a simple design and attention to essential details. The main difference between the two room types concerns the bed configuration, designed to suit both couples and those travelling with a roommate.
The Double Room is designed for those looking for a single large bed and has a balcony overlooking the property’s inner courtyard, a detail that makes it slightly more distinctive than the other room type. The Twin Room, without a balcony but with the same size and the same basic amenities, is suited to those who prefer two separate beds, for example for trips with friends or colleagues. Both share the view of the inner courtyard and direct access to the hotel’s common facilities, including the in-house restaurant.
Room with a classic design and a large double bed, the only one of the two room types to feature a private balcony overlooking the inner courtyard. Air-conditioned, it has a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, minibar and a private bathroom with bathrobe.
Same size as the Double Room but with two separate single beds, ideal for those travelling together without sharing a bed. Without a balcony, it still offers a view of the inner courtyard, air conditioning, flat-screen TV and minibar.

General facilities include air conditioning and heating in all areas, daily housekeeping, a safe and CCTV cameras both outside and in the common areas. Pets are welcomed free of charge on request, and the property provides dedicated pet bowls. Parking is available on the street, at no extra cost.

Il Giardinetto is located in the historic centre of Vercelli, a Piedmontese city known for its rice paddies and its valuable religious architectural heritage. The area around the property is typical of a provincial city centre, with pedestrian streets, neighbourhood shops and informal venues frequented mainly by locals, allowing guests to experience the city away from the most touristy circuits yet still just steps from the main monuments.
Vercelli railway station is only 450 metres from the hotel, a convenient connection for those arriving by train from Turin or Milan; the second station, Borgo Vercelli, is about 5 km away. For those travelling by air, Milan Malpensa Airport is the closest, about 39 km away, followed by Turin Airport at 60 km and Milan Linate at 67 km. The free on-street parking makes the property practical also for those travelling by car.
A few minutes’ walk away are some of the city’s main historic sites: the Church of Santo Spirito at 350 metres, the Abbey of Sant’Andrea at about 400 metres and the Avogadro Tower at 550 metres, up to the Cathedral, reachable in about 650 metres. In the immediate surroundings there is no shortage of bars and restaurants for a quick meal or a coffee, such as Pizza e Pasta and Sottosopra Cafè, both within 300 metres of the hotel. A visit to the historic centre can be completed in a walk of a few hours, ideal both in spring and autumn, when the climate is milder for strolling through the streets of the centre.
