Palace Bonvecchiati

 A centrally located and upmarket B&B with an ample supply of international eateries within a few steps of the entrance to compensate for the absence of an on site facility.

The pleasant, modern interior is in contrast to the exterior of the building and those that surround it. Suits those seeking a well managed, reasonably upmarket base in the heart of one of the most historic locations of the city.
