TorreBarolo is one of a kind! It is a renovated 19th century tower that is in the center of Barolo, which is in the heart of the Langhe Valley. You are truly spoiled for choice with all the wineries, restaurants and wine shops that are just a few minute walk from TorreBarolo.
Barolo is also the perfect location if you want to do lots of touring in the Langhe as it is just a 10 min drive to many of the most scenic and noteworthy wine producing hill top towns such as La Morra and Monforte D'Alba. A short 15 min drive from Barolo brings you into Alba, a charming cobble stone medieval city with Michelin star restaurants, fantastic weekend markets, great food and fashion stores and an excellent tourist center to ensure you take advantage of everything the Langhe has to offer.
But when you are done touring for the day and are ready for some privacy where you can uncork some wine and slice up the local salumi you bought, then TorreBarolo's roof top terrace gives you the ultimate setting to sit back, sip and take it all in.

From TorreBarolo's elevated position in the village (2nd tallest building in town after the Castle), you enjoy sweeping views of the vineyards and medieval hill top towns that contribute to the charm of the Langhe Valley. In 2014, the Langhe and surrounding areas were appointed a UNESCO Heritage location.
