Cagliari is situated in the heart of the Mediterranean, in a panoramic location within the "Gulf of the Angels" (Golfo degli Angeli in Italian) between two long beaches – Poetto and the so-called "Pond of Cagliari" (Stagno di Cagliari in Italian). It is the largest city on the Italian island of Sardinia and has a mild climate throughout most of the year.

With our hotel as your base, a wide range of attractions are within easy striking distance:

Take a stroll in the area surrounding the hotel, through the streets of the oldest part of town, where you will come across the beautiful square that is Piazza Yenne – a real hub for fun and entertainment at all hours of the day and night; you may also like to gaze at the city from the top of the Saint Remy Bastion, a delightful monumental structure that leads into the quarter known as "Il Castello" (Castello being the Italian for "Castle"). In this part of Cagliari, which is characterised by stone-built houses and narrow alleyways, you will come across numerous traces of the city's Mediaeval history, first and foremost the Gothic Cathedral of Santa Maria. You may then come to the promenade known as the "Buon Cammino" and to the Roman Amphitheatre, which plays host to a series of events and concerts during the summer. This area also features the Botanic Garden (Orto Botanico in Italian), boasting around 2000 plant species, which thrive in the mild climate of southern Sardinia.   

Poetto beach is a favourite with locals and tourists alike. On sun-kissed days, its attractive kiosks offer food and drink that you can then enjoy as you look out to sea. You can also hire sun loungers and parasols.  

The Santa Gilla Lagoon, an internationally important site for wildlife, extends across 15,000 hectares and is home to myriad species of flora and fauna, including pink flamingos and more than 70 species of rare birds. These birds can also be spotted around the former salt pans of the nearby Molentargius Park.

For those who like to take short trips, you can reach the renowned beaches of Villasimius in next-to-no-time by heading towards the eastern coast or by taking the wonderful Chia coastal tract heading westwards.

Cagliari is an easy city to get to know and enjoy, since it offers numerous museums, cinemas, coffee bars, parks, tourist bus routes, exhibition spaces, tours and excursions, and much more besides.
