HOTEL VILLA MICHELANGELO

The Palladian-style dream villa with panoramic pool

A 15-minute drive from Vicenza, Hotel Villa Michelangelo is surrounded by rolling hills, magnificent olive groves and 5 hectares of gardens with centuries-old trees, making it a popular wedding venue. In the immediate vicinity, the forest invites you to take a relaxing walk in the heart of nature.
A haunt of aristocrats and creative types throughout its history, it was built in Palladian style as an aristocratic residence in the 18th century and is said to have inspired the most memorable works of Italian playwright Carlo Goldoni. In the summer months, Hotel Villa Michelangelo offers a spectacular swimming pool overlooking the Berici Hills.

The Palladian-style villa that houses the hotel, built in the 18th century as a summer residence for the noble Tomi family, is surrounded by a five-hectare park with centuries-old trees and magnificent olive groves. The hotel's rooms have retained the original style of the Palladian villa, characterized by high ceilings, antique furniture and elegant Venetian mosaic floors.

Tradition in the 52th century wanted the stunning architecture of Hotel Villa Michelangelo to reflect the magnificence of the noble family that resided there. This concept is found in the XNUMX rooms and suites, characterized by high ceilings, antique furniture and a breathtaking view of a landscape that in all seasons can arouse a unique emotion.

The Gravel Badges

Badge I - Romeo and Juliet Castles

They symbolize the entire new north-western territory of Berici Climbs, the offshoots of the Castellari Mountains, spectacular places of transition between the Berico plateau and the pre-Alpine slopes.

The very difficult Strada dei Carri (Wagon Road) that leads to the castles in the municipality of Montecchio Maggiore is representative of this part of the park.

Badge II - Sanctuary of Monte Berico

A symbolic site for the entire park, of great and rare beauty, beloved by the Giro d'Italia with two stage finishes in ten years. It also hosts two gravel climbs, including the wonderful and pleasant Colonia Bedin.

Badge III-Villabalzana

It represents a bastion, a port of arrival for many climbs in the northern area. A wonderful place surrounded by greenery with breathtaking views of Lake Fimon and the entire pre-Alpine chain.

Badge IV - Grancona

A symbolic place of the southern block, its large square, the church that looks more like an ancient castle and the panoramic terrace overlooking the Val Liona make Grancona a sought-after and desired destination.

Badge V - Hermitage of Dan Donato

It is a magical place, full of spirituality, where the rock of the hills merges with the human action to draw a perfect frame, a painting from which you can admire the skyline of the Euganean Hills and recover the seconds of time passed, here you can perceive the true essence of Berici Climbs, memento vivere.

VI- Gravel Super Hero Badge

The badge that certifies that you are the real heroes! Climbing 50 gravel climbs is a great feat that deserves to be celebrated, because the effort is hard, but even more so is managing to complete a complex journey in an often complicated and crowded life. This is an achievement of resilience and passion, it's your achievement! Hold on to it!
