Hotel Langhe

Alba


Two kilometres from the city centre, Hotel Langhe sits on the edge of vineyards that push up against Alba's not entirely unpleasant suburban sprawl. Staff are friendly and the pace relaxed, with a wine conservatory, a bright breakfast area, an inviting pool, and downstairs rooms with French windows that open onto a sunny forecourt.
