Palazzo dalla Rosa Prati

Parma


Kick back like Marie Antoinette in regal digs right next to Parma cathedral. Choose from among nine posh and palatial renovated historic suites, 10 modern apartments and two smaller, less expensive doubles. Corner suite 5 is especially alluring, with views into the baptistery's upper window directly across the street (a trade-off for the gaudy pink bedspread).

Parking costs €14. Downstairs, sip wine or coffee at the modish T-Cafe.
