It was amazing. The host, Andrea, is wonderfully kind and caring. The architecture is very unique and sits close to both the castle and the old town.

Great stay at the Ostello del Castello
We stayed here as we were taking the Bernina Express. The owner was really welcoming and gave us lots of advice and recommendations on where to eat and visit. The hotel is in a quiet place and although only 5 mins walk to the train station you cannot hear the trains. It was immaculately clean and the mattress was really comfortable. Breakfast was excellent. We hope to return one day.

Had a wonderful stay at Ostello del Castello Tirano. Andrea the host went above and beyond during my stay giving information about Tirano and helping me with the train. Very peaceful and relaxing one night stay. The room was very pleasant with gorgeous views and a delicious breakfast, which I would recommend.

Super fantastic place with a lovely owner. The building is amazing and the history of the building is very interesting.
A short walk from the train station, easy to find and well worth the small extra walk. Nice and quiet.

My wife and two children went to this hotel and they had the best experience with the host. Is a small hotel, it has a great location since you can walk from the train station. A sincere admiration at the gardens and at the person that cares of them. High praises to la mamma. One of the best, if not the best, of this Europe trip.

Host was very accommodating. 12 minute walk from train, away from where most hotels are in Tirano. Beautiful property. Local wine maker just a few feet away from property, which makes it even nicer. There is no air conditioning but there were fans in the room. This is a norm in Italy either way. Breakfast was good and at a good price.

We stayed here one night, and we wished we had stayed longer. This place is magical and so unique like something we had never seen before. The host was also really sweet and helpful. If we ever end up back in Tirano we will definitely stay there again. Breakfast pastries were also delicious.
