Locanda Appennino, Предаппио, Италия

Oh. My. Gosh! We took a detour on our trip to the Dolemite Mountains from Rome and had made reservations at this hotel. We knew nothing about it. It exceeded any and all expectations! The rooms (there are only 5) were new, spotless, and beautiful! The staff were exceptionally friendly. Jacob, the proprietor, speaks good English. This is a hotel review, but the restaurant...oh...the restaurant. Excellent menu. One of the best meals we have had in Italy. They have a wine cellar! You can go down, sit, and select from many, many bottles of wine. It was a wonderful evening for our entire family. Jacob gave us many tips on places to see in Predappio. If you are traveling from any points South in Italy towards Venice, then I highly suggest you make a stop in Predappio and stay at this hotel!

Excellent quality rooms with comfortable bedding and quality bathrooms. Breakfast was superb and the restaurant served fabulous dishes with seasonal and local ingredients. Excellent wines to match. The staff, including owner Jacopo were very welcoming and made our stay particularly enjoyable.
