Upon arriving in Cuneo from a most unpleasant experience in the Cinque Terre, the kind owner of the hotel: Giorgio Chiesa and his wife Stefania, greeted me. The hotel is centrally located on Via Roma in Cuneo. The room was a standard room but it was a suite inclusive of a jacuzzi bathtub! The dinner was fabulous and they have all the best wines from the Piemonte region of Italy. A word of caution about this area of Italy: knowing some Italian is very helpful. Or at least knowledge of French or German, since it is close to both borders. I was treated like a Principessa. They also offer one-day cooking classes, which I partook in. I will definitely be back!!
