Plan with ExpertoItaly

The ExpertoItaly view

A spacious suite in the heart of Renaissance Urbino

Palazzo Giusti makes the accommodation part of the cultural visit. Restored ceilings, individual architectural details and unusually generous suites give you somewhere rewarding to return between visits to the Ducal Palace, cathedral and museums.

Its small scale suits couples who appreciate historic interiors and want to enjoy Urbino on foot. The spa adds another reason to leave an afternoon free. Breakfast is included at a nearby pastry shop in the historic centre.

Our starting point: Two or three nights in a named suite chosen for its decoration, outlook and bed arrangement.

Planning your stay

Is Palazzo Giusti right for you?

Best for

Art, architecture and an occasion

Couples who will enjoy the suite itself as well as the city. The individual interiors provide tangible reasons to choose an upgrade.

Atmosphere

An intimate historic residence

Five suites give the property a different scale from a conventional full-service hotel. We confirm arrival assistance and service arrangements.

Transport

Urbino without a car

Stay centrally and explore on foot, with arranged transfers for arrival, departure and selected outings.

Access

Gradients and restricted streets

Urbino is hilly and the palazzo is in a pedestrian area. We check internal access, luggage handling and the complete route for mobility needs.

Rooms and suites

Choose a named suite, with its own character

The five suites range from 55 to 84 m². Some look towards the Cesane hills; others face the city or courtyard. Space, decoration and outlook vary meaningfully.

For space and hill views

Guidobaldo del Monte · 84 m²

Historic stucco and a contemporary sleeping alcove, with views towards the Cesane hills. A strong occasion-led choice; accommodates up to three.

For additional guests

Bernardino Baldi · 68 m²

Hill views and a decorative fireplace. Its four-person capacity uses two French double beds within one large room, rather than separate bedrooms.

For Renaissance decoration

Federico Commandino · 72 m²

Sixteenth-century ceiling decoration and frieze, with a bath and shower. Our starting point for couples most interested in the historic interiors.

For twin beds

Federico Brandani · 78 m²

A decorated ceiling and historic fireplace, with double or twin beds. A particularly useful choice when separate beds matter.

For contemporary space

Muzio Oddi · 55 m²

A bright, more contemporary open-plan suite overlooking the street and Piazza della Repubblica. Choose it for its particular style and city outlook.

Life at the hotel

A café breakfast, city evenings and the vaulted spa

Breakfast

Start at a local pastry shop

Breakfast is included in the room rate and served at a nearby pastry shop in Urbino’s historic centre.

Wellness

A spa within the building’s older layers

Vaulted brick spaces and archaeological remains form the setting for bio sauna, Turkish bath, infrared and hydromassage facilities. The circuit is advertised as two hours and admission is for guests over 16; inclusions are confirmed.

Dining

The palazzo’s bistrot

The on-site bistrot serves seasonal dishes and welcomes outside guests as well as residents. We check its opening days for your stay; Urbino’s other restaurants are also close by.

Location and getting around

Central Urbino, with the arrival planned for you

The cathedral and Ducal Palace are close enough to explore at different times of day. Stay for the quieter morning streets, a museum visit and dinner in town, with time to return to your suite between them.

The property recommends Borgo Mercatale parking, around 500 metres away, with a taxi for luggage; a public lift connects the parking area and historic centre. We arrange the transfer or provide parking and unloading instructions. A car is useful for wider Montefeltro touring, but unnecessary for Urbino itself.

A practical pace

Two or three nights work naturally here. Within ten to fourteen nights, give the longer stay to the coast or countryside. Nearby Tenuta Santi Giacomo e Filippo is usually an alternative base, unless you specifically want both city and estate experiences.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We can’t thank ExpertoItaly enough for the wonderful trip to northern Italy organized for us in August. We really appreciated that Antonio took time and effort to get to know the kind of travelers we are so as to create an imaginative, personalized travel plan and detailed guide packed with tips and information about the places we visited. His vast insider knowledge of his country contributed to our smooth and stress-free train journeys and to all that we learned and enjoyed about the cities we visited; about their respective histories, cultures, infrastructures, public spaces, peoples and more. We would recommend ExpertoItaly in a heartbeat!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just back from another delightful holiday organised from start to finish by the Italian "Expert" Antonio. After several discussions with him we decided to have an eleven day trip to the Amalfi coast and Ischia and thanks to his intimate knowledge of the area we had a most enjoyable and memorable time. Ischia in particular was absolutely wonderful. Antonios advice on the boutique hotels, guided tours, and places to visit were exemplary as were the drivers he booked to ferry us around. In addition to all the knowledge and advice he provides, this time, we encountered a  couple of problems of our own making, but a quick WhatsApp to Antonio and within 24 hours both problems were solved. So if you are looking for an independent holiday in Italy along with great support we have no hesitation in recommending Antonio

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ExpertoItaly is a brilliant company, and Antonio organised a wonderful holiday for us in Puglia a region we did not know. His suggestions were all fantastic. He listens to what you want to do and works your holiday around that. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone contemplating a holiday in Italy. Thank you so much, Antonio!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We engaged Antonio Cresce to plan and manage our 3 week holiday in Italy - covering towns in the regions of Puglia, Basilicata ,Calabria and Campania.

Our holiday was seamless and exceeded all our expectations, and I would highly recommend Antonio / Expert to Italy for all your holiday planning and needs.

From the point of choosing destinations, Antonio was collaborative and listened to everything on our wishlist . The towns he chose for us were exactly the places that we loved .. off the beaten track, charming and authentic Italy !

He picked our accomodation and again there was a lot of collaboration over our needs and we loved the choices .

The tours he organised were exceptional. I wanted to see wildflowers and orchids and he engaged experts to take me around the national parks . I would never have been able to source the contacts and organise the excursions as perfectly as it was done . Some of the best moments of our travels , ever!

Transfers were professional and seamless.
Antonio remained fully contactable throughout our trip for questions , help and any details we needed. We felt fully secure and confident that we had an agent travelling along with us at every step! It was a huge benefit as well having him in the rough time zones as Italy where he is based in the UK, so that any questions were promptly answered and sorted . This could have been more problematic if we had engaged someone from home in Australia with the big difference in time zones .

We appreciated his travel advice and recommendations, his work ethics , his professionalism and how he went over and beyond to make our holiday truly exceptional!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Antonio is super helpful and efficient and he knows Italy. He arranged our three centre Italian holiday, booked all train tickets, taxis and hotels and suggested places we wouldn't have thought of. You can have an independent holiday without problems, even in a less touristy area, because he's organised everyone for you and he's a back up if anything goes wrong. Thanks Antonio, be in touch next time!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Antonio was a delight to deal with. He was knowledgable, friendly and very patient when we changed our plans several times! His choices of hotels were exceptionally good and he was very responsive when we had a little hiccup with the car rental. Highly recommend his services.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used ExpertoItaly to help us with our two-week holiday in Sicily. We had a couple of interactions with Antonio, and were very fast to close on our itinerary and hotels. Everyting was very well organized and suitable to our requirements. Antonio chose very good accommodations: small beautiful, full of character and well located. He also booked our bus trips as we did not want to rent a car. That worked really well. It was a great help and gave us great confidence for our trip. We strongly recommend ExpertoItaly if you want customised holidays in Italy. We will use it again for future traveling in Italy!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Antonio was really helpful in planning our trip to Italy. We wanted to visit 3 locations, he provided recommendations on accomodations which were great - really good locations for each booking.  He also coordinated taxis and trains and provided a load of suggestions for each location for places to eat and sites to visit.  He was readily available to answer any questions we had by email or WhatsApp. His assistance really helped us in planning this trip and saved us a lot of stress in trying to coordinate this ourselves. All in all we had a great holiday
