If you love boutique hotels you will love the Parlamento Boutique Hotel. Located on the 4th floor of a 500 year old building, the hotel is perfect for visiting all the old sites of Rome.

Lovely hotel inside the old gates of Siena.

Beautiful oasis in Florence.

Very fun hotel with a great location in Milan for tourists.

Beautiful hotel, perfect location and a very welcoming team of professionals. Room very spacious for Europe and comfortable in every way.

Excellent morning walking through 2000 years of history.

A must afternoon while in Rome. Tour was full of information with an expert navigator of history.

A must in Tuscany. We had a great evening of cooking, drinking and eating!

This was a surprise gem of a morning. Loved the local lore and the cathedral is spectacular. Guide was fantastic.

A very fun day. Balance between winery and local villages. Would suggest a change in the second Winery. After visiting Talosa another top rated winery would have been preferred.

Beautiful day with our private guide. She made the entire day so much fun.

Our private tour guide was full of information and very friendly. The extra effort in walking us back to our hotel through the ancient sites of Milan was a real treat.

Guide was amazing. Very friendly and full of fun facts and local lore.

This is such a pretty little hotel with 24 hour reception, an amazing made-to-order breakfast, and a big suite with a full kitchen. It’s off one of the main walking streets (Via Vittorio Emanuele) so you right in the middle of the action, walking distance to everything. The room had a little balcony where you can hang out and people watch. Umbrellas in the lobby, nice touch.

This was a unique little hotel. The reception desk staff was wonderful and had great ideas for restaurants and Marsala wine tours, which we hadn’t yet set up. The apartment was huge, with tons of closet space, a mini-kitchen, an iron and ironing board, a steamer, and private patio access. It’s in walking distance from the old part of town which has cute restaurants and shops. We drove over to Florio for the wine tours as it’s tough to get a taxi in Marsala. Parking was a challenge due to street cleaning one of the nights we were staying, so we had to move our car. Breakfast was excellent.

It’s a cute and clean B&B. The room was large and comfortable, the owner provided unlimited cold water and access to the refrigerator which was great. Breakfast was good with baked goods and fresh coffee, not much protein though. The location isn’t great and parking was a challenge, although we were able to walk 20 minutes to a good restaurant. If you are just going to the Valley of the Temples, there’s no real reason to stay in Agrigento, stay outside the city.

Lovely property, walking distance to everything in Ortigia, we had a sea view to watch ocean storms! The room was very small with almost no room to put two suitcases. We had a fridge and complementary water. Front desk staff were wonderful. Buffet breakfast had a great selection of food and then you can order many more items off the menu. Great coffee, umbrellas available,

Very nice front desk staff, we had a large room overlooking the water, On the third floor, our room had its own huge terrace with a separate entrance. We barely used the terrace because we were out so much. Breakfast was decent, the coffee was fabulous. Great location (but very windy roads to get there if you are driving, valet parking.

This was a great experience. Marco picked us up at our hotel and we were joined by another family of 5. He provided history and context as we were driving to Mount Etna, and gave us all some time to chat also. We stopped at a little convenience store to buy some water. Our first stop was a lava cave, which was fascinating, then we walked up the mountain to a dormant lava field. We ended with a wonderful lunch and winery tour at Cantine Petria. Would have been nice to have been provided water and walking sticks as parts of the climb were slippery and rocky. Marco was interesting, knowledgeable, and personable, and nice to spend the better part of day with.

Not sure how to rate this so gave it a 3. The lists provided are fine, but we used Rick Steve's book and map and the hotel map for touring. Would have be nice to get local maps from KimKim, in hindsight.

The entry ticket was in the Vamoos app, which we forgot. But it was there and pre-paid, so that was convenient.

We cancelled this when we needed to change from afternoon to morning. Gave it a “poor” to click through.

We cancelled this before we left. Only gave it a “poor” to be able to click through.
