Our notes

The hotel

Palazzo Doglio is a five-star hotel in Cagliari's Villanova district, in a building from the mid-1920s that was restored and reopened as a hotel. It is a member of The Leading Hotels of the World. Its centrepiece is a 2,000 square metre inner court with Liberty-style balconies, Art Nouveau-inspired friezes, Carrara marble and a fountain, which the hotel's restaurants and bars look onto.

The hotel has 72 rooms and suites in five categories: Classic, Deluxe, Prestige, Standard Suite and Executive Suite. Classic rooms are 25 to 30 square metres and Standard Suites 40 to 45. Doglio Club, the hotel's wellness club, covers more than 400 square metres and has a swimming pool, sauna, steam room, fitness area and treatment rooms.

Palazzo Doglio stands between Via Logudoro, Via Goceano and Via Nuoro, a short walk from Piazza San Cosimo and the early Christian basilica of San Saturnino. The hotel says the Poetto beach is a few minutes away. Photographs are from the hotel's own website and credited to it.

The area

Cagliari is the capital of Sardinia, a port city built on hills above a wide bay, the Golfo degli Angeli. Its centre is made up of four historic districts: Marina, the old harbour quarter beside Via Roma; Stampace; Castello, the walled upper town on the hill; and Villanova. The hotels on the harbour front sit right at the foot of this old core, so most of it is within walking distance.

The city has been a port for a very long time, and the layers show. A Roman amphitheatre cut into the rock is still there, as are the Pisan-era towers of the Elefante and San Pancrazio and the Bastione di Saint Remy, a grand terrace over the rooftops. The Citadel of Museums, the botanical garden and the harbour are close by on foot.

For the sea, Poetto is the city beach, a long, lively stretch about ten minutes by car from the harbour, with beach clubs and sport. The Molentargius salt pans on the way are a nature park where flamingos are often seen. Boat trips leave from the tourist harbour.

Cagliari is a year-round city and lacks the crowds of the island's summer resorts in the shoulder season. Late spring and early autumn are generally the most comfortable months for walking the hill districts and still swimming. The airport is about 10 km from the centre.
