1 Bedroom Villa in Valtellina, Ponte in Valtellina
Palazzo Guicciardi: Living twelve centuries of Valtellina history
"Stepping across the threshold of Palazzo Guicciardi means entering an indissoluble bond with the territory."
Owned and preserved by our family, present in Ponte since 773 AD (when our ancestor Guicciardo settled here after crossing the Alps following Charlemagne), this noble residence, documented since 1548, has been restored to its former glory through careful conservative restoration. Today, it is an exceptional retreat where modern comfort meets authentic art.

This reservation offers the exclusive use of the Noble Wing of the Palazzo, the historical heart of our hospitality, ideal for accommodating up to 5 guests. On the ground floor, you will find spacious and textured rooms:
The 1579 Stüa: Entirely paneled in ancient wood, it is a warm and secluded space, ideal for resting.
The Great Kitchen: Featuring a monumental fireplace.
The Green Parlor: A bright room overlooking the loggia.
The Noble Wing features a total of three bedrooms: the Senator's room, a double bedroom with painted ceilings and wall canvases; a single room overlooking the ancient wine-press courtyard and the garden; a twin room, which can also be set up with a double bed, overlooking the garden and the mountains; and two bathrooms.
