Hotel Regina d'Arborea

Top choice in Oristano


Palatial elegance and prime location are the twin attractions at this hotel on Oristano's main square. Four of the seven rooms are downright magnificent, with 7m-high ceilings, restored ceiling frescoes and original patterned floors. Book ahead for the Sofia room, crowned with a hexagonal cupola and wraparound windows that offer a bird's-eye view of Oristano's famous Eleonora d'Arborea statue.
