Reschio Hotel is a 36-room hotel in Lisciano Niccone, Italy, occupying a castle built in 1050. The estate extends through woodland and meadows, while the former Etruscan stronghold and ancient church retain their historic structure. Restoration keeps the original layout, so rooms and suites vary in scale and geometry rather than following a standard template. Thousand-year-old architectural details sit beside contemporary Italian furniture, art, and bespoke pieces developed by the Bolza family’s architecture and design studio. Some windows are more defensive than panoramic, a useful reminder that this is a castle first and hotel second.
The public spaces include Palm Court with a grand piano, a library, a bar in the former kitchens, and Il Torrino, a tower bar. Dining spans Ristorante al Castello, set within the castle walls with a sunset-facing terrace, and Ristorante alle Scuderie at the estate’s center. A farm-to-table approach draws on organic gardens. In the old cellars, the Bathhouse spa supplies Roman baths, a hammam, Swedish sauna, and massage room. Tennis courts and an equestrian center broaden the agenda, making Reschio suited to design-minded travelers who want rural seclusion with serious facilities, as well as families.
