The northern Italian city of Mantova is a beautiful, historic city surrounded on three sides by lakes. Sordello, Mantova's central piazza, is one of the most beautiful in all of Italy - it's a lively square where both locals and visitors congregate. There are many cafes and several great restaurants in and around the piazza. In 2005 Mantova was named Italy's most livable city besides its artistic and historical treasures Mantova, excels for its food tradition, and the choice of the activities: from the boat excursions on the lakes surrounding the town, to the cycle tracks connecting the town to lake Garda.
This is a region rich in both culture and nature, conveniently located close to Bologna, Venice and Milan. There are many possibilities for excursions, including visits to Verona, Sabbioneta and Lake Garda which are just at 40 minute drive away, or Cremona, the town of the violin makers which is a 1 hour’s drive away.
Personalized excursions and guided tours can be organized on request .
Mantova is a great place to cycle,it is fun and easy to discover its territory by cycling!
Embraced by its three lakes, Mantua amazes the visitor for its natural environment. Ideal setting for swans, herons, cranes, greylag geese, and the lakes offer an unforgettable show during the summer with lotus flowers blooming.

Stresa, ItalyStupendo palazzo e stupenda ospitalita'
Left on 01/10/2013 for a stay in November 2012
Ho soggiornato con mio marito ed alcuni amici per qualche giorno in questo "gioiello".. si, palazzo castiglioni a Mantova, e' un vero gioiello! Hanno restaurato mi pare, cinque suite, una piu' bella dell'altra, la piu' scenografica e' quella della torre, con una vista sui tetti di Mantova, stupenda! l'accoglienza poi della famiglia Castoglioni poi...che dire...sono e sono stati i Signori di Mantova!! Se passate da Mantova, non mancate di passarci, almeno una notte!

ajacciowe had a wonderful time
Left on 06/13/2012 for a stay in July 2011
We had a wonderful time in Mantova the location and comfort of the apartment was the base for our experience.
it was truly amazing... the pictures don't really show how beautiful the palace is;
Loved how people gave us directions by the number of minutes to walk. The Palace is right in the center of everything and we enjoyed the beautiful views of the town. The location is close to the train station and we were easily able to do day trips out of Verona.
Nice to have the air conditioning. Guido was very welcoming and helpful.
Faustina was excellent. She also provided great information when we called her later with another question. We loved our time here and we are planning to return

WilshireBrilliant
Left on 07/13/2011 for a stay in July 2011
Our stay in the Torre was everything we expected and more. We stayed for two weeks. The accommodation is clean and extremely comfortable and the family's lovely maid, Faustina, who speaks English, comes every day and looks after you very well. If you want flunkies and hotel-posh this is not for you, but if you want a unique, off-beat experience staying in a real, utterly private and historic building, this is it. It was too hot to use the roof very much in July but it would be a wonderful asset in May or September. Mantova is a great place with lots of lovely restaurants and cafe-bars, as well as being a good centre for touring Verona (including the Opera Festival), Parma and Trento, all easily reached and fantastic.

An extraordinary experience! Palazzo Castiglioni was absolutely lovely. The owners were so hospitable and warm
Great location,in front of the Palazzo Ducale There is a lovely bakery just on the corner with great treats to take back for your morning coffee. If you enjoy walking and exploring the back streets along the way, this is the ideal spot.Great open market right down the square on friday .. -

GermanyAmazing place to stay
Left on 07/07/2011 for a stay in June 2011
Lovely enormous room with gorgeous frescos on wall and all you need for a very comfy stay. A very friendly welcome and kind help throughout our stay. Perfectly situated for easy access to city - whilst being a lovely peaceful retreat. Panoramic views on the terrace - we learned this is the highest terrace in Mantova in a lived in building.

New York, N.Y.Visit Mantua as a Renaissance gentleman
Left on 11/05/2010 for a stay in August 2010
A vast room decorated with faded frescoes at the top of a 12th-century tower in the Palazzo Castiglione; 360-degree views of Mantua and its lagoons from the roof terrace; comfortably appointed; air conditioning. Service is charming and helpful (the owner lending me his laptop when mine failed to connect to the wi-fi).
No better way to discover this splendid and intimate city than in surroundings that have belonged for 400 years to descendants of the Renaissance humanist Baldesar Castiglione, whose portrait by his friend Raphael hangs in the Louvre and whose _Book of the Courtier_ defined the the Renaissance gentleman. -

romea huge experience!!
Left on 10/26/2010 for a stay in October 2010
Palazzo Castiglioni is the ancient Palazzo Ducale in Mantova. In this ancient bulding there's an apartment reserved by the Count Castiglioni for their guest.
It's a perfect large room with an incredible bed, original painting, a huge terrace with a Mantova's full view. The bathroom is clear, big and confortable. All is in an atmosfere warm and historic. One of my best experience in Italy. Strong recommended. -
