Shower & Gym; everything well maintained. Good welcome. Perfect breakfast
Diner in the restaurant; good food but waited 1,5 hour for main dish and cancelled it an went away. Music on the square to loud and bad choice of music. Room was very small but high quality

Really neat and pleasant stay.
Staff always available to give indication or listen to requests. Room was really comfortable. Close to city center. Lots of activity in the central plaza during the weekend but we could barely hear any noise so no issues. Breakfast was great.

A true city attraction and a place full of charm. Spotlessly clean with exceptionally friendly and attentive staff. The modern gym is equipped with brand‑new equipment, and the beautiful courtyard offers several restaurants and bars to suit every taste – an outstanding hotel!

Saved the day!
This location is beautiful. The breakfast buffet is vast & delicious. The staff is incredibly friendly. We arrived early morning as we were leaving an AirBnb with roaches. We were exhausted & frazzled but the staff took our things to our room & brought us to breakfast. Changed the entire trip!! We are so thankful for Palazzo Doglio!!!

A great luxury accommodation. Attentive staff. Good SPA facilities and amazing treatment. Good cocktails at the bar.
They should have more people preparing coffees at breakfast time (or more coffee machines). Very good breakfast buffet food, but coffees always arriving late (literally at the end of the breakfast), and other guests having similar experience.

Nice place for visit in Cagliari
Room is specious, comfy bed, large bathroom and nice interior. Hotel is beautiful and restaurants inside it serve delicious food especially pizzeria "Mairoi". The staff was friendly especially the consierge.
We reserved a deluxe family room that should come with the additional sofa and should be larger in size but we got a regular one that in general costs less.

Wonderful stay
Excellent breakfast every morning in their restaurant with a choice of indoor outdoor seating. The hotel and the outdoor areas were all very clean and well maintained. The rooms were exactly as indicated on the website and we had a lovely room with balcony overlooking the hotel square which was serviced twice per day and was immaculate. The choice of restaurants and quality of the food and service was excellent.

Swimming pool not included in the price, this should not be the case for this type of hotel. This should be clearly communicated everywhere.

Very comfortable- food was delicious - entertainment was the best
Class- not overly priced so keep it that way and open some more
Little bit of snobbery at the reception when we arrived as of course we had driven 200 miles so weren’t in class clothes or clean- we were tired - there was just a bit of judgment going on with three men behind the counter - we did not appreciate that - Their attitude changed the moment they saw our car - which sort of confirms the snobbery

Very nice room and great options for food around the hotel. Probably the nicest building and complex within Cagliari.
A little bit on the pricey side compared to other hotels but it does provide a very luxurious offering.

Beautiful property with great gym and incredible breakfast
Beautiful property in the heart of the city. Close to all of the neighborhoods you want to explore on foot. Lovely gym available to guests with enough modern equipment to get a great workout in. Rooms were beautifully appointed and comfortable. The breakfast was incredible.

Loved it. Best holiday
The service was excellent, the staff were extremely friendly which I loved the most
The room was a little stale smell. I spoke to manager apparently it was above the restaurant so the room didn’t have a great fresh smell.

excellent place in Cagliari!
Really nice hotel with a lively courtyard of small restaurants. Lovely rooms, mine had a terrace on the courtyard where it was nice to relax in the early evening with a drink. Very large room and bathroom, well supplied with amenities, coffee, and water. It is very very clean and well tended property. The staff was very helpful and welcoming, especially the gentleman who helped with valet and luggage. Easy to walk to the Castello area and see that older part of town with great views and the beautiful cathedral. Also easy to drive out to poetto beach area in less then 15 min. Or on to Villasimius for a nice day trip up the coast.
Honestly cannot think of anything I didn't like. It is a nice luxury hotel.

Classic hotel with nice gym
Classic outlook and high ceiling. Good gym. Breakfast not bad, only the cook cannot make good fried eggs.
The room walls are too dark in colour, really not pleasant.

I liked everything the comfortable room, amazing beds, kind staff, excellent service!
I would say that the only thing maybe would be the restaurant menu, would have preferred more classic Italian food choice and less fancy but still good food. Service was excellent
