City choice: Verona: Hotel Giulietta e Romeo

City of Romance, the setting for Romeo and Juliet Romanesque churches, Renaissance palaces, mediaeval squares Beautiful riverside setting in the backdrop of the Dolomites

About Verona
As beautiful on land as Venice is by sea, Verona embodies Italian romance. Straddling the River Adige, just to the east of Lake Garda, and nestled in the backdrop of the pre-Dolomites, its perfect situation has an almost stage-like quality. Little wonder that Shakespeare chose to set Romeo and Juliet here! Must see sights include San Zeno, the most ornate Romanesque church in Italy, the famous arena (the third largest amphitheatre in the world) and the beautifully preserved mediaeval market square, Piazza dell’Erbe.

Giulietta e Romeo

The *** Giulietta e Romeo enjoys an enviable position a stone’s throw from Piazza Bra, where the arena is located. It has 30 en-suite, air-conditioned bedrooms, all classically decorated with satellite TV, telephone and minibar.
