[martanikolova, 05/01/2012] I wasn't too impressed by this bridge, even though it is one of the famous spots of Verona. It is exactly in the style you would expect it to be. During the time it was built, it was something remarkable for sure. I am not saying you shouldn't visit it, on the contrary, just that I wasn't too impressed about it. It deserves a few minutes to be admired, but nothing more in my opinion.
[martanikolova, 05/01/2012] I chose this hotel mostly because of the price. The hotel is situated a little bit far from the centre of Verona (about 4 km), but there is a bus stop near the hotel. We were travelling by car, so location didn't bother us. Rooms are ok, nothing special about them. Our room was clean and basically fine. Service is good, I liked the reception staff. There is a parking outside, which is great when you travel by car and it is free.
[martanikolova, 05/01/2012] This is something you should see if you visit Verona. I imagine what it would be like to see a concert there, but we didn't have that chance. We only took the tour inside it and it was still fabulous. Built out of stone, it gives such an ancient feeling of glory. We didn't have a tour guide to explain us all the historical details, but we could still enjoy the whole atmosphere.
[martanikolova, 04/01/2012] I have always dreamed of visiting this place. The house of Juliette amazing! I didn’t know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised by the whole atmosphere. I and my husband had just got married and this was one of the most important stops in our honeymoon. We wanted to make this as some sort of ritual or something. We put our names on the wall, we wrote in some notebook inside the house. It was really a great experience for two people deeply in love with each other.
[nicolatraveller, 30/12/2010] a dream place for dreaming holidays. Over romantic. Excentric!
[AndrewStreeter, 19/07/2008] We went here for my 40th Birthday (organized secretly by my wife) and she had not only booked but had asked to be shown the cellars which was agreed in a call from the UK.
I have to say our evening did not start well. We arrived early at 7.30 (our appointed time) and had our son Archie with us aged 9 months in a small push chair. We were shown past a good table with our name clearly on it (the waiter picking up the card as he passed) and lead us to a back room, cosy but completely empty and not in the lovely high ceilinged main part. "Is fine?" No actually, could we possibly have that lovely

[tazzywazzy, 01/10/2007] After easing myself gently back into review writing, I think it is time for me to tackle my most favoritist subject - food (& wine, but I don't really know much about that, except that it tastes nice hic)
...As some of you may know (from last review), Snarf and I recently paid a visit to Italy and spent a night in Verona, and obviously we needed to be fed & watered, and since Verona was the very last leg of our trip, we wanted to be fed & watered well - none of this pizza / pasta muck that we had been desperately trying to dodge for the most part of our holiday.
So over a glass of Soave, w

[tazzywazzy, 28/09/2007] Yes, I am back and finally writing reviews, my recent holiday to Italy has inspired me - after a bit of a break, I thought, ease myself in with a nice easy review - The House of Juliet or Casa di Giulietta.
Finding Juliet's House
As most of you know it is "fair Verona where we lay our scene", tucked between two shops on Via Capello, just off of Piazza delle Erbe, heading towards Porta Leoni. To be honest, it is not hard to find - just look for the mass of tourists gathering outside the gates.
What's there?
To be honest - not much, Snarf & I weren't actually particularly bothered ab
