Byblos Art Hotel Villa Amistà

Byblos Art Hotel is an exquisite 5 star property! The team was extremely polite, professional and attentive. The hotel is beautiful inside and out. I loved waking up to the rooster every morning and seeing them running around the property :) All the team members we encountered had gone above and beyond. A big thank you to Riccardo and the front office team, the two young servers in the lobby bar, the lovely shuttle drivers, the housekeeping team who handled our room with such care and the F&B team for an amazing breakfast experience. Thank you again team Byblos, we will definitely be back next time we are in Valpolicella!

Byblos Art Hotel Villa Amista Corrubbio di Negarine 1026243013 Beautiful villa ruined by atrocious contemporary art by the world's worst artists. Hideously installed art everywhere, corridors filled with pathetic graffiti art. The rooms are ridiculously furnished with garish colors and dumb art. Towels, sheets and pillows are of the worst quality. The prices are absurd. The only redeeming factor was a good breakfast. If you love pointless pretensions, stay there. Otherwise steer clear!!!

This is our second time to Byblos Art Hotel, for a reason. The property is fantastic, a combination of Villa and a lovely curated modern art museum. What makes it stand out are the people who work here, all lovely and fantastic. Riccardo at the reception, was very helpful helping us dealing with all small details. Finally, the food is absolutely amazing. Ristorante Amista is a michelin starred restaurant, but it combines classic Veronese cooking with everything you would except from such a restaurant. Chefs Simone and Mattia have created a top notch menu. I could go on, and I certainly missing people who were amazing, and we will certainly return for a third time.

An unexpected, enchanting property immersed in the uniqueness of the Valpolicella area. The tru added value is also the quality of tje staff and great culinary experiences.

I cannot recommend this hotel, mainly because the value for money is simply outrageous. For the rates they charge, the overall experience is nowhere near acceptable. Breakfast was shockingly poor: the selection was small, the quality disappointing, and the scrambled eggs were practically liquid. The shower in our room was blocked, full of limescale and mold in the corners. As a couple, we were given just one small blanket (about 1.40 x 2 m), wrapped only in loose bed sheets that came undone, leaving us with an uncovered duvet. When we asked for another blanket, we were only provided with yet another sheet. The pool service was chaotic and slow – waiting endlessly for something as simple as a drink. Speaking of drinks: prices are absurd. €20 for a simple long drink is unjustifiable, especially given the quality, and room service adds another €15 surcharge on top of already overpriced items. The room itself was underwhelming: very basic for the price, with a cheap TV that only receives Italian channels and no international options. The minibar was poorly stocked and honestly felt like an afterthought. To be fair, the architecture of the villa and the gardens are beautiful, and the staff themselves are friendly and do try their best. But unfortunately, these positives cannot make up for the many flaws. The hotel positions itself as luxury, but what you actually get feels careless, outdated, and massively overpriced.
