The hotel preserves traces of the original medieval structure of the 12th century Palazzo Confalone. Other architectural and decorative elements were added in the 17th century. The 5 different levels of the building do not correspond to modern-day storeys, since the original structure was essentially vertical, but irregular. Additional wings and a tower-like extra storey contribute to the maze of unpredictable openings, corners and corridors. A small flag-like sign hangs discreetly above the main door of Palazzo Confalone. Built in the 12th Century, in a charming location on one of Ravelloâ??s little alleyways, the building protrudes onto the street with a tower-like structure forming an arch, dotted with tiny loop-holes which were used as lookouts in bygone days.
