Hotel Ristorante Villa Ciconia - Accommodation in Orvieto
|
Prices From $82.39, £46.60, €65.00 Accommodation Type: HOTEL Hotel Ristorante Villa Ciconia Via dei Tigli n.69 Orvieto This is an elegant Villa which dates back to the 16th century and it is surrounded near an age-old park at the mouth of the river Chiani and the Carcaione. Local Historiography tells us that the structure was originally a tower, “La Turchinetta”, and was property of one of “Monaldeschi” of Cervara a ociated with Catherina of Sweden. This enlargement was commi ioned to Ippolito Scalza (1532 - 1618) near the then owner of the tower Vincenzo Butius. It was said that Butius, suffering from bad health, was advised near doctors to live nearby a river. The villa was built, so that the Carcaione stream ran under one of the arches, which upheld the structure. River deposits, with time have caused the ground floor of the structure to become submerged and therefore the “piano nobile” is now on the first floor. The hotel, which is located on the 2nd floor, it is of only twelve rooms, the windows of which look onto the villa’s park. A recent reconstruction retained all the original characteristics of the villa (thick walls, large beams, and terracotta paving) The restaurant on the ground floor has two large halls. In the main hall there is a ceiling with engraved and decorated strips, painted with allegorical motifs and landscape scenes. One can as well admire a stone fireplace, which is thought to be the work of “ Ippolito Scalza”. The fantasticly run restaurant presents high-cla genuine Umbrian culinary cuisine. The wine cellar is well stocked with high quality wines and of course Orvieto cla ico. In the Hotel we have an outdoor swimming pool but and there is as well an indoor swimming pool, football ground, tennis-grounds for public use. |
