Book Due Torri Hotel with VIP Benefits

The palazzo's origins date to the 14th century, and it became an inn in 1674. Mozart and Goethe were among its guests over the course of its long hospitality history. The Due Torri hotel identity dates to 1958, so the interiors reflect several periods rather than a single preserved medieval scheme. Biedermeier and Empire furniture sits alongside the work of Veronese painter Pino Casarini.

Casarini's paintings give the property a particularly close connection to the performing arts. The entrance hall depicts a knights' tournament; downstairs, the Arena Casarini room is filled with scenes of circus life. Its acrobats and performers relate to the artist's work in stage design. This room is used for events, so ask about access if you would like to see the frescoes during your stay. They are worth seeking out without confusing this indoor space with Verona's Roman Arena.

Classic Rooms measure approximately 20 to 28 square meters and overlook the winter garden. King or twin beds are available, and connecting rooms provide an option for families who want separate sleeping spaces. Empire-style furniture, parquet flooring and pink marble bathrooms establish the mood even in this entry category. Bathroom layouts vary, with a bath and shower combination or a walk-in shower, so specify a preference if it matters to you.

Deluxe Rooms increase to around 25 to 35 square meters, with views of the city or winter garden. Grand Deluxe Rooms run from approximately 33 to 38 square meters. Those overlapping ranges are a useful reminder to look at the actual room arrangement and outlook rather than assume that every higher category is substantially larger.

Junior Suites offer about 35 to 40 square meters, with Venetian plaster walls, Murano glass chandeliers and marble bathrooms. Classic Suites, at roughly 40 to 45 square meters, add a separate lounge and desk. That division is helpful if one person wants to read or work while the other rests. Period furnishings remain part of the suite experience; these are furnished hotel rooms, not self-catering apartments.

The 61-square-meter Mozart Deluxe Suite has a private terrace facing the old city, including the Torre dei Lamberti. A separate living room and a bathroom with pink and red marble, twin basins, a bath and a large shower give it more than an outdoor advantage. It can connect with a Grand Deluxe Room, making it an option for guests traveling together who also want separate bedrooms.

For a view of the basilica, consider the Maria Callas Deluxe Suite. Its private balcony faces Piazza Sant'Anastasia, and the approximately 60-square-meter interior includes a large lounge and walk-in wardrobe. It takes its name from the soprano, who stayed at the hotel repeatedly. A connection to a Deluxe Room is possible. The choice between these two suites comes down partly to the terrace or balcony you would enjoy most.

The S. Anastasia Presidential Suite occupies the mezzanine floor on its own. Around 100 square meters accommodate up to four guests, with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and two walk-in wardrobes. The second bedroom can become a sitting room, so it need not be booked solely as family accommodation. Its private entrance and separation from other guest rooms are more significant distinctions than size alone.

Bistrot al 2 occupies the Sala dell'Aquila, a dining room designed by Gualtiero Marchesi. A separate entrance welcomes people dining from outside the hotel as well as residents. Veneto and Italian cooking guide the menu, with vegetarian dishes and lighter lunches alongside a more considered dinner service. It gives you an indoor option when you want to eat at the hotel without relying on the terrace.

The Rooftop Gourmet Grill Restaurant provides a different perspective. Its roughly 300-square-meter terrace sits around 30 meters above street level, looking toward the Duomo, Castel San Pietro and the Torre dei Lamberti, with the Adige below. An open kitchen prepares meat and fish dishes, and the rooftop bar serves aperitifs and cocktails. This is a place to allow time for the view as well as the meal. For a pre-opera dinner, mention your performance plans when reserving so the timing can be discussed.

Breakfast is served in a room whose frescoes depict scenes of Verona, with a buffet and gluten-free corner. Later, the Due Torri Bar on the piano nobile offers a frescoed indoor setting for drinks. The different rooms let you enjoy the building without making every meal a formal occasion. None requires giving up the chance to try the city's osterie and wine bars.

The Health & Wellness Centre is small and suited to a city break. It has a Turkish bath, a shower with colored lighting, a relaxation room and treatment cabins. A fitness area uses Technogym equipment, and private yoga sessions can be reserved for individuals, couples or small groups. These facilities are useful after sightseeing, but the hotel's main reason to stay remains its old-town location and heritage rather than a large spa program.

Verona's Valerio Catullo Airport is approximately 15 kilometers from the hotel. The concierge can arrange private transfers from the airport or railway station, and paid valet parking is available. Ask for arrival directions before driving into the historic center. Once settled, you can leave the car behind for the main sights and return to it for trips farther afield.

Valpolicella, north of Verona, adds vineyards and wineries to a longer visit, with Amarone and Recioto among the region's wines. Lake Garda is another possible excursion. Keep enough time for Verona itself, especially when an evening performance is part of the trip. Due Torri's position lets you enjoy the city in shorter walks, with a break at the hotel before going out again.
