Hotels near Rocca Calascio Fortress, Santo Stefano di Sessanio

My stay in Santo Stefano di Sessanio , in Sextantio Albergo Diffuso was truly unforgettable. The hotel was beautifully restored using traditional materials and techniques, giving the rooms an incredibly authentic and historic charm. It felt like stepping back in time, but with all the comfort and attention to detail you could ask for. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. A special thank you to Fabiana and Jessica, who went above and beyond even before my arrival — answering all my questions quickly, helping me plan my trip, and organizing two amazing experiences: a cheese-making class and a bread-making class right in the village. Both were not only fun but deeply connected me to the local culture. The village itself is small but full of character. There are several lovely restaurants and charming little shops where you can find local products and souvenirs. If you love nature, you can go hiking in the nearby Gran Sasso mountains or visit historical sites like Rocca Calascio. Overall, this was a peaceful, enriching escape — the perfect place to slow down and disconnect. I would absolutely return and recommend it to anyone looking for something truly special and authentic.

Clean, strategically positioned, spacious, all amenities available. Superb breakfast, and above all the hosts are friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

Wonderful stay! Everything was perfect – the hotel was spotless, cozy, and welcoming. The owner was extremely kind and helpful, always attentive and ready to assist. The location is ideal for exploring the Gran Sasso area and the towns of Abruzzo. The on-site restaurant was fantastic, with delicious food at very reasonable prices. Highly recommended!

La Torre is an unbelievable location in an old building as part of the ensemble of Santo Stefano di Sessanio. All you need for breakfast is provided and filled up every day by our lovely host Claudia. La Torre is perfect starting point for hiking and sightseeing in the fantastic nature around. We got also very good recommendations for restaurants.
