Housed in a restored 18th-century villa on a hillside overlooking acres of vineyards, this family-owned country house hotel with 10 individually decorated guest accommodations lies about 10 miles north of Alba. Request one of the four suites in the main villa, which feature king-size beds, separate living areas and large windows with lovely views of the countryside; some include a balcony or terrace. Spacious baths provide tubs or showers. Double Rooms are best avoided. The indoor-outdoor restaurant serves fine local seasonal produce. Amenities include an appealing winery with tastings available in the cellar, cooking classes, a garden and a lovely seasonal swimming pool flanked by loungers. Tennis, golf, biking and horseback riding are available nearby.

The lovely setting; the notable restaurant with wines from the surrounding estate.
The hotel is understaffed: The front office closes at night, and there is no bar to repair to after dinner.
To be happy here, you must get a room in the main villa and not in one of the annex buildings.
Lowest Rate: Double Room, $180; Editor’s Choice: Suite, $290.
