A hotel from 1896 beside the old bridge
The Palazzo Pischedda is Bosa's historic hotel. It is a Liberty-style palace built by Mr Muroni in 1896, when the trade in hides, fruit, tuna and wine made Bosa one of the most prosperous towns in Sardinia, and it has operated as a hotel ever since. It stands on the left bank of the Temo, 30 metres from the Ponte Vecchio and a few steps from the old tanneries of Sas Conzas. Judges, engineers, bankers and horse dealers used to stay here; the hotel still keeps its old registration cards.
What strikes you most on entering are the frescoes on the ceilings, the work of the painter Emilio Scherer (Parma, 1845 – Bosa, 1924), and the lobby with its chequerboard floor. The lounge has ceilings and walls of exposed stone.
The rooms
There are many types: Classica, doubles on two levels with a town view, Superior, a Family room, rooms with a panoramic terrace, junior suites with a balcony or terrace and a suite. The most special are the Deluxe rooms with a private spa, double or quadruple, with a Finnish sauna, sensory shower and whirlpool bath inside the room. All have wifi, air conditioning, television, a safe and a minibar.
Ask for one with a terrace: from above you see the Malaspina castle, the river and the coloured houses, which take on warm tones at sunset. The website does not publish prices or the number of rooms; check them when you book on its website.
Facilities
Breakfast is a continental, English or American buffet. There is a panoramic lift, a bar, a left-luggage service and the Ristorante Sa Pischedda, open since 1974, serving Bosa cooking and pizza. They organise boat trips on the Temo, boat and rigid inflatable hire, bird-watching visits and horse-riding excursions and, if you ask, a transfer from Alghero airport. Small dogs are welcome, on a lead or in a carrier.
