La Casa nel Borgo Gerace

La Casa nel Borgo is a fascinating former family residence transformed in hotel, situated in the heart of Gerace; a picturesque medieval village within the boundaries of Calabria's National park of Aspromonte and from where a fabulous view of the Ionian sea can be admired.

The hotel is steeped in local tradition, its interiors adorned with an interesting collection of artworks and old photos depicting the town of Gerace through various moments in history as well as a number of portraits the family who lived in the building for many generations.

La Casa nel Borgo's simply furnished bedrooms are equipped with every comfort and are lent additional appeal by superb views out over the roof tops and flower filled terraces of Gerace.

A bar is located in La Casa nel Borgo's inviting and extremely comfortable lounge. Here, by the attractive open fireplace, guests relax over a leisurely drink or browse through the papers.
In the summer months guests can sit out on the 'mignano'; an ornate balcony-like structure, often found in traditional Southern Italian architecture, rich in decoration and from where the female members of the family could witness the goings on in the town without being observed.

La Casa del Borgo's sister hotel, the Casa di Gianna, which boasts an excellent restaurant where to savor the finest Calabrian cuisine, is just a short stroll away.
