Amazing hill town with rooms scattered in various fully renovated buildings with every comfort, whilst cleverly retaining the original features. Breakfast was excellent and we were looked after by all the staff.

Sarah United Kingdom

We simply loved our stay in Sextantio. It's a unique place, where the smallest detail is taken care of, making the whole experience unbeatable. Sextantio is not just a hotel, it's a whole experience. We can't wait to go back!

Stefaniadb United Kingdom

The breakfast room is lovely. A toaster would have been nice. (If there was one there I didn't see it.) Orange juice for breakfast would also be a nice addition. The hiking trail from Santo Stefano to Rocca Calascio is awesome. Better signage for tourists to find the trail head in Santo Stefano and Calascio would be helpful. We lucked into it at Rocca Calascio.

David United States

A high quality service level in an exciting middle age reference.A special thanks to Sonia for her professional advices during our stay. A benchmark for eachone who is looking for successful buildings renovation , executive mood and visitors welcome.

Stephan Belgium

Great experience in a wonderful location. Enjoyed our stay immensely.

Phillip Australia

Location is good for visiting the nearby National Park of Abruzzo. Given the limited choice of hotels nearby, this hotel offer a good choice to enjoy the traditional style of small village house.

Helen Hong Kong

staff are great, lovely character to the place, stepping back in time

Rai Jersey

Unique place, recreating medieval atmosphere, all with extreme good taste. Delicious breakfast with fresh and very tasty local products! Kind and helpfull staff!

Jaime Brazil

There is a sign at a fork when you arrive in Santo Stefano di Sessanio, it says “Sextantio 50m”, it is not clear if one should go left or right, a more accurate sign is needed.

Marianna Egypt

WOW! We are so glad that we visited this place and we definitely recommend to visit it to everyone! It is just so different that you will never experience something like this. The owners succeeded in combining of ancient buildings, furniture and decorations with modern facilities and it works just perfectly amazing! The hotel provides all the necessary information in advance which made us very comfortable!

Sextantio Albergo Diffuso offers unique accommodation in the fortified medieval village of Santo Stefano di Sessanio, deep in the Abruzzo hillside, at 1,350 yards a.s.l.

This spectacular hilltop village in the Gran Sasso National Park has been perfectly preserved. Rooms and junior suites are scattered in the original, period buildings.

You will find beautiful, simple décor, locally woven linens, 17th-century wooden ceilings, and ancient fireplaces. All this is combined with modern technology, including under-floor heating and remote-controlled lighting.

At the Sextantio Albergo Diffuso, the restaurant serves a great range of local recipes, all made using fresh food grown in the neighbouring fields.

Outside the ancient walls, you can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities, from climbing and hang-gliding, to hiking and horse-riding. Famous ski slopes are also just a short drive away as are many interesting old towns and villages.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.4 for a two-person trip.
