L'Antico Borgo

Calabria


L'Antico Borgo's five rooms are tucked away in Gerace's medieval labyrinth adjacent to the restaurant and pizzeria of the same name. Decor is relatively simple, but rooms are kept spotless and are a good option to enjoy the hill town's shadowed streets and laneways after the day trippers have departed.
