I wished I could tuck these in my pocket and take them home...so cute!

I found this little gem on TripAdvisor and had read that it wasn't far from the train station. It was about the same as we walked in Venice, only this time we were walking in the rain! It is about 6/10 mile from the train station and located within about a 20 minute walking distance from everything! There are many really good restaurants located close by that were recommended by the hotel. This hotel is very charming. It is an old hotel in character with each room retaining the character unique to it. The beds were very comfortable and our room had a separate seating area with a couch, desk and beautiful old wardrobe. The air conditioning worked really well and there was plenty of hot water. The buffet breakfast was included in our rate and we ate in a beautiful light turquoise blue room downstairs. The breakfast was the usual european fare but there were no hot items on this buffet. Regardless what was served was fresh and delicious. Cappuccinos and coffee were served on request by an attendant. Our stay at the Il Guelfo was very pleasant and peaceful.
