Birkin is a very cozzy place to stay in Cagliari. The Castello neighbour is excellent. Te cathedral is 2 blocks distance and there are many piazza's to have an apero or just a coffee. Also the breakfast was very good. The staff very helful contacted me before hand and also gave us useful information to visit the city.

The service was nice. The room was excellent. They gave us an upgrade due to extra availability.

Very nice B&B in an ancient building that has been lovingly restored. Bed was very comfortable,staff very accommodating and breakfasts were fine. Internet worked very well.

BREAKFAST WAS AMAZING. HOTEL WAS VERY NICE, CLEAN, MODERN.

I suffer with dairy intolerance and the staff were so attentive that they actually baked me a dairy free cake to be able to consume during my breakfast. I really appreciated such a caring gesture and the kind attention they pay to their clients

Although it is a castle from the 1600s, it was very well restored whilst still showing its original character.

It was clean, the beds were comfortable, the towels were huge, the staff was very accommodating, the heaters worked well, breakfast was nice. We liked the general feel of the place. Once we got over our trauma of finding the place within the walled part of the city, we actually thought it was charming.

Very cosy family room, perfect for our one night stay. Staff was very pleasant and helpful and location was very convenient to explore the old city.

The Birkin Castello is like taking a step back in time to the Middle Ages in this restored home of nobility. This beautiful 6 room hotel is wonderfully situated a quick 15 minute walk away from everywhere in Cagliari's old town district. Letizia, hotel manager was lovely...so helpful to us before and during our stay. Her advice on what to do and see and where to dine was perfect. She was able to make reservations for us at a wonderful restaurant in the Marina district that gets booked far in advance. Everything about our stay was wonderful!

This property is in the center of the city. Cagliari is on a mountain so you are located above the port area. It’s a 10 min walk to the port where you can catch the bus to poetto beach. The property has a very cute rustic feel. One of the cleaners Antonella does a fantastic job cleaning. the room was always immaculate when she was done. The two sisters that run the bed and breakfast are very helpful with all requests. The breakfast was extremely good. Traditional Italian style. There are 6 rooms in this bed and breakfast. I would stay here again with no hesitation.

Property info
Inaugurated in 2014, Birkin Castello is a luxurious guesthouse located in the heart of the historic center of Cagliari, occupying a completely renovated building dating back to the early 17th century. The interiors feature a classical style furnishing, in perfect harmony with the architecture of the ancient premises, characterized by stone, wood and wrought iron.
Neighborhood info
Castello is the oldest of the four historic districts of the city of Cagliari. It rises on a prominent limestone hill, about one hundred meters above sea level. The Pisans founded this district in the thirteenth century and immediately fortified it, providing it with walls, towers and bastions as they aimed to move inside it the headquarters of local civil, military and religious power. Since then, under every subsequent domination, from the Pisan one to the Aragonese-Spanish and Piedmontese ones, until the second post-war period, the Castle hosted the palaces of power and the aristocratic residences. Because of its relevance over the whole city, during the centuries the ancient "Calari" went on to be known as "Casteddu" (Castle) in Sardinian. Today the neighborhood is still accessed through the ancient medieval gates, opening at regular intervals in the walls that still isolate it from the rest of the city. All of this contributes in giving this ancient neighborhood its charm as a place frozen in time, wrapped in the aura of the centuries of history that have passed over it, but still resistant today to the invasions of an external world that has so deeply changed.
