06/10/2025: I stayed on October 4-5 at the Albergo Ristorante 13 Comuni in Velo Veronese. The warm welcome from Elisa and her staff was excellent: I felt like I was walking into a friend's house, not a hotel! I wasn't expecting such a room/suite: full of attention and love for every detail, with a subtle yet captivating scent infused with the wood furnishings. The generous yet intimate spaces, including the splendid bathroom, feel truly spacious. The family story continues through the grandmothers' names assigned to each room. I won't reveal the rest of this property because it's something for those interested to discover during their stay. Breakfast is so delicious: exquisite flavors born from research and collaboration with the surrounding area, all geared toward truly organic food! I was fortunate enough to savor Chef Giovanni's cuisine: a feast for the eyes, the palate, and the passion that flows through every dish. Kudos to the entire staff, made up of smiling, professional, always kind, and even more patient young people. This structure, 13 municipalities, this town, Velo Veronese, and this region, Lessinia, were unknown to me, but they were a wonderful surprise. I don't want to repeat clichés, but I feel I will return with great, great joy! Dear Giovanni and Elisa, I embrace you with gratitude, and in this I also welcome all your staff.
11/09/2025: I stayed for two days with a group of cycling friends. The owners' hospitality was superb. Giovanni, the owner, provided us with a secure space to leave our bikes overnight (25 of them). He also offered to accompany us for a full day on a hike in the Lessini Mountains (which resulted in some reprimands from his wife, given that he is also the hotel's chef). The entire staff is extremely friendly. The rooms, which are mini-apartments and were renovated a few years ago, are very nice and spotlessly clean. They also have a well-equipped kitchen. The electrical system is excellent, with plenty of outlets and good lighting (which is often lacking in many hotels). Both dinners were excellent in terms of both food quality and presentation. Finally, to show off Giovanni's kindness, a friend of ours who had been injured, accompanied her to San Martino Buonalbergo, even carrying her bike.
