It was our first visit to the Art Hotel Riposo - which we thoroughly enjoyed despite "the weather". Hospitality is held high in this establishment, the service is very friendly with a personal touch that made us feel "special". The artfully decorated public areas are wonderful to behold. This is a place where customer service is underlined with passion. Unfortunately... More

We stayed for two nights and were sad that we couldn't stay longer. The hotel's location is perfect and the staff (run by a family) is very attentive, friendly and fun. The included breakfast they offer is fantastic and we took advantage of the bicycles they offer to guests. Rooms were spacious, quiet and very comfortable. My wife and I... More

Since many years I spend some days in summer/autumn in Hotel Riposo. It's a place to relax and to enjoy life. Owner family Studer and team like to spoil their guests by helping them, creat a wonderful atmosphere and by serving a delicious dinner. Every room in the building is decorated unique and nicely prepared. On the roof top you... More

My husband and I stayed at this hotel a week ago and it was simply perfect.

Thank you to the Studer family for making... More

We traveled a lot around the world and know when we found a jewel... The Riposo succeded all our expectations. It started wtih the warm welcome and later a glass of Proseco. We stayed in the newly nice renovated room 56 with an extra bed in a small room and aircon. Unlike a previous reviewer, it didn't bother us at... More

We stayed at this hotel as part of a group tour. Despite booking in the main building we were put in an outside annexe up 30 dark steps overlooking a car park.There was no porter to carry bags. We are nearly 70 years old! No telephone in the room nor was a torch available we were thus isolated. The owner's... More

I cannot believe that we stayed in the same hotel as some of the reviewers. May be we were lucky but we found it one of the most delightful hotels we have visited. Lovely room, small but tastefully decorated with a balcony overlooking the very pretty courtyard and excellent food and service. Add to this the house jazz band which... More

This hotel should have a lot going for it. It is in a lovely central location in a beautiful resort. However, despite having been promised a room with a view we were given a ground floor room (No 56)with five windows, ALL overlooked. The bathroom was even within reach of a public pathway. The room was dark with no comfortable... More
