The "two wonders"

Palazzo Ducale and Palazzo Te showcase the Gonzaga golden era: the first is the city-centre palace, the second Giulio Romano’s summer residence. From the Sala dei Giganti to “Cupid and Psyche”, these are two essential stops if you want to get to know Mantua in a few hours.

Pumpkin tortelli

An icon of Mantuan cuisine: baked pumpkin, parmesan, amaretti, mustard and nutmeg in a thin pastry. They are served with butter and sage or with grated parmesan: a genuine tradition that you can also find in the most contemporary menus.

Evolution Kitchen

An approach devised by nutritionist Chiara Manzi: more nutrients and taste, fewer calories and excesses, thanks to selected raw ingredients and targeted cooking. At FavorEat, you will find “evolution” dishes that lighten tradition without losing their flavour.

Mantegna and the Bridal Chamberi

In the San Giorgio Castle (1465–1474), Mantegna transformed a room into an illusionistic masterpiece celebrating the Gonzaga family. Restored and reopened to the public in 2015, it’s a quick and memorable visit just minutes from the hotel.
