La Vecchia Fonte Hotel owes its name to the old fountain located in the town center square.
The hotel, which is elegant yet discreet, and really painstaking, with the architectonic lines of ancient taste, is an exclusive structure and the perfect place for a pleasant stay even thanks to the impeccable service, the professionalism and the courtesy of the staff.
