카스텔로 디 파보네

This is a beautiful castle that is not really equipped to be a full service accommodation. This location contains only a few bedrooms, a dinner room, a breakfast room, and a small lobby and seating area. Most of the advertised activities are off-site through other companies. It is a castle with only a very small explorable area. There may be more that we didn’t see, but they want you to buy the tour for that. Not accessible at all. 20+ steps up to the front door and assistance with luggage only available at certain times. Do not recommend for mobility impaired visitors. The bedroom was clean, but still carpeted and old, as you might expect for an old castle. Not great for allergies. Not a very comfortable bed. AC was ok but not very strong. Wifi is very unreliable. Comes and goes in the room and not sufficient for video calls. Sitting in the lobby was a bit better but still not recommended if you need to work. Food was good, not amazing, with a somewhat limited menu. Breakfast was nice, buffet style with coffee drinks made fresh. I was appreciative of the multiple gluten free options. Customer service was a mixed bag. Some nice people, but others not so much. When we encountered issues, such as a rainstorm soaking multiple feet of carpet through our balcony door, the response from a front desk employee was just “it will dry”. Most of the entertainment in the area we found on our own exploration. Ivrea is a somewhat interesting small city nearby, while Lake Sirio is a great way to spend an afternoon with several restaurants, lounging areas, and swimming. Overall we were glad we visited, but wish we had spent most of our time in a more comfortable accommodation. I would recommend only coming for a dinner or tour. If you stay, make it just 1 night for the novelty, then move to another full-service accommodation.

It's a castle! What's not to like? This place is amazing; highly recommend.

Magical castle with fantastic dining hall set in the outskirts of once-great manufacturing town of Ivrea famous for its Olivetti typewriters. Floors might be creaky and TVs are outdated, but overall ambience compensates for this a lot. Great place to stay if you travelling from Alpes to Italian coast of Milano

There were too many stairs and that is challenging to someone with physical disabilities. We would have liked to know that before we booked.

From first ringing the doorbell to checking out four days later, our time at Castello di Pavone was excellent. The facility is gorgeous and remarkably well maintained; it has a rich history (take the free tour!). Staff are first rate--kind, courteous, professional, responsive. Our room was super comfortable--nice linens, good bed, big bathroom with bathtub. The breakfast spread is grand--meats, cheeses, fruit, yogurt, juices, and more. If you choose the Castello restaurant for dinner, you will not be disappointed! Again, facility, service, and food are all excellent! From the hotel, you can easily walk down to the small town of Pavone Canavese. TIP: Driving to the hotel is a little tricky! GPS took us to, basically, a walking path. The best way to find the driveway that leads to the parking area is to take VIA DIETRO CASTELLO to VIA MEANA, but turn up the hill (NOT onto VIA MEANA), passing a couple of apartment buildings on the right, then a short wooded area, then VOILA! the castle parking.

Il castello di Pavone è sempre una garanzia, abbiamo soggiornato per due notti in occasione di halloween ed è stato meraviglioso come sempre. Personale sempre impeccabile, un grazie particolare ad Eva e Denise che ci fanno sempre sentire coccolati come a casa. Grazie anche a tutto il resto dello staff sempre perfetto! Grazie Chiara e Marco
