The Experience

Everything about La Rosa e Il Leone, from the ancient Roman columns in the flower-filled garden to the Juliet-style balcony of the marble-floored master bedroom, breathes feeling and romance. Named after Valeria’s Veronese father and Milanese mother – the Rose of Lombardy, the Lion of the Veneto – the villa is an ode to their love both for each other and for the arts. The walls sing with framed musical scores and programmes from nights at La Scala (Milan) and L’Arena (Verona), while adjoining first-floor sitting rooms celebrate the juxtaposition of the masculine (hard lines, dark colours, stacks of leather-bound books) and the feminine (curves, pastel colours, a passion for music and dance). The soft hand-woven sheets on antique-framed beds were part of Valeria’s mother’s dowry, the furniture part of her parents’ lifetime collection. Stroll under leafy pergolas; listen to the history humming in the ancient cypresses; breakfast outside and admire an extraordinary replica of the Louvre’s Winged Victory. Like her house, Valeria is a gold-mine of high culture. A must for anyone visiting Verona.

Arriving at La Rosa e Il Leone was like entering a secret garden. Valeria has such a wonderful artistic eye and uses it to enhance everything about this incredible place. Our room was glorious, with a view over the impressive garden and the bed covered in fine linen. Maura's fresh flowers filled the grand house with delightful scents. Giovanna kindly walked us through the grounds, giving us their history. Breakfast was a delicious spread of fresh pastries and bread, cereals, eggs - from their very own chickens - and plenty of coffee! We can’t wait to visit again.

La Dolce Vita. La Rosa e Il Leone was our fist stay in Italy of a 6 week trip, we stayed in some amazing accommodation on our journey but no one could match this place. We fell in love with our hosts Giovanna & Valeria, there hospitality is so generous and welcoming. We really felt like we were staying with long lost friends after being there a few days. The property itself has certain magic about it, everything is of generous proportions. Spacious clean rooms, comfortable beds, quiet location, amazing breakfast, everything has be thought of. I would not hesitate to recommend La Rosa.
