La Giolitta
The Rooms & Apartment La Giolitta takes its name from the ancient neighborhood of Barolo where it is located and was born from the restoration of a late 19th century building, located a few steps from the Castle of the Marchesi Falletti, home of the Enoteca Regionale del Barolo and WiMu - Wine Museum.
Here hospitality rhymes with smile and courtesy: Daniela and her family have been opening the doors of their home since 2001 and welcome you in 3 acconglient rooms with private bathroom, decorated in pastel colors and furnished with retro details, which make the environment comfortable and relaxing.
A reading room, filled with photo books, cookbooks and informational material, is available to deepen your knowledge about the area with the help, if desired, of the owners of the house, ready to tell anecdotes and curiosities.
A friendly family, a house cared for in every detail, a privileged starting point for discovering the territory, for a vacation that smells of authenticity and genuineness.
