The Hotel Catullo, founded in 1888, has a modern, international atmosphere perfectly suited to this quiet and ancient town.

It takes its name from the famous poet born hereabouts, one of the young so-called “new” poets who made a lasting mark on Latin poetry, mainly with themes of eroticism and love. Several verses have become eternal - still cited throughout the world - and which return in elegant frescoes on the hotel walls, on the various floors leading to the rooms.
 

The hotel restaurant is very large and luminous thanks to the generous glazing, opening up the visual field and offering a sensation of freedom and ideal merging with the surrounding landscape.

The restaurant overlooks the impressive garden, recalling the architecture of the gardens of ancient Roman patrician residences, or of the holiday villas of nineteenth-century nobility.

Parties with music are organised at least one a week in the lake-view garden - breakfast is served outdoors on the elegant iron tables under pergolas in the silence of a town free from cars and noise, among the swishing of the waves and the singing of birds in the vegetation - summer evenings with an aperitif and a cocktail when the fresh breeze rises from the lake to bring on conversation and relaxation.
