We stayed here for only two nights but it was perfect for our stay. The place is very relaxing. The owners are very kind and helpful. We will definitely come back!

Super nice last minute stay for one night, beautiful house, amazing hosts, perfect breakfast and absolutely worth the money.

The Hive is a little secret paradise in the countryside run by exceptional hosts. Thank you very much. I will remember your welcome.

Beautiful place and suitable for those who want to relax. Nicely decorated structure. Warm welcome. Recommendation.

Great stay in a secluded yet convenient, very quiet and picturesque place. Very kind and helpful the Mrs. who manages the structure. Highly recommended structure.

Excellent stay, very pleasant host, only one night's stay while traveling but all good.

Welcoming and well-kept structure in every detail, suitable for both couples and families to spend a few days in tranquility surrounded by greenery. Managers very helpful for check-in time and to provide information about the area. Convenient to reach the center of Mantua in a few minutes by car and to visit the surroundings. Absolutely recommended.

This Bed & Breakfast has truly beautiful views! Quiet place, large, beautiful and clean room. Breakfast like you would have at home but with homemade jam, honey, and cake. Fresh fruit picked from the garden. Chiara was very kind, she provided us with information on where to eat and we had a great time. She gave us tips on the villages to visit, in short, really precious. It was a discovery this place. Everything was perfect, three days of escape from Milan in an unexpected place. The only very small downside was the pool, which was not in-ground, so no pool edge, but it was still there and we appreciated it. Very well maintained also for water cleanliness.

Great for spending a few days in complete tranquility. I recommend it.

The accommodation is quite idyllic, quiet and located in the countryside. The host family is extremely friendly and nice. Upon arrival, they show everything and even explain the history of the family and the farm, including the renovation. Everything is very clean. They put effort into every detail and there is a swimming pool. Tips are given for excursions in the area. Mantua is right nearby and very beautiful, but you can also reach Verona or Lake Garda and the countryside in 50 minutes. The breakfast was ok, but it was also affected by Covid, so many things were adjusted, little open and reduced. The air conditioning in the room was good and very quiet.

Pleasant environment in the countryside, spacious and clean room with TV, abundant breakfast, affordable.

The hospitality of Chiara and Valerio was excellent. The structure is clean, welcoming, well-kept, and surrounded by greenery. The owners met our needs, helping us find a restaurant for dinner and making me find a delicious gluten-free cake made by the mother, a truly sweet and kind lady. Our stay lasted only one night but we spent pleasant moments chatting with them and the other guests. A beautiful refreshment stop on our bike trip along the Oglio river. Highly recommended!

Fabulous welcome. What a smile. Thank you.

All ok.

Well-kept and welcoming structure, immersed in the total tranquility of the plain (equipped with a small pool which is crucial in the hot season!), but with the beautiful Mantua just 20 km away. The professionalism, availability, punctuality, and kindness of Mrs. Chiara are hard to find. Recommended for families Elena & family.

Availability and courtesy, from the managers, quiet location immersed in greenery, suitable for cycling enthusiasts. Optimal location to travel the numerous cycle paths along the Po and Oglio rivers. Not to be missed the fantastic Mantova-Sabbioneta cycle path.

We stayed at L'Alveare on the occasion of B&B Day and we had a great time: all the services of the structure were excellent and, when there are complimentary services, it is not at all obvious. Moreover, Mrs. Chiara even offered us to stay in a room even larger than the one we had booked, without any extra charge. The B&B is very convenient to visit Mantova and in the evening return to a quiet, silent environment, in close contact with nature. Chiara and Valerio are two very welcoming people and it becomes easy to talk, tell stories, and listen, as if we had known each other for a long time. The care for the memory of the place and its origins does not end in the beautiful conservative restoration of the old barn, but is revealed in the stories and in the non-random arrangement of objects, in the rooms and in the beautiful courtyard. Very few times like this one, we spent two days in a place taking away with us much more than a nice memory and leaving, in turn, a piece of ourselves.

A perfectly nestled Bed and Breakfast in the Mantuan territory, allowing easy visits to some Lombard cities (Cremona, Mantua) and Emilian ones (Parma, Modena), given the particular geographic location. The proximity to the Po River is very suggestive, as well as that of the Oglio River. The managers are friendly and kind people, generous with advice and suggestions on places to visit or restaurants to eat at. The structure is well taken care of and allows for spending beautiful moments in complete relaxation in contact with nature and total privacy. We visited it in the winter period but we would also like to come back in spring and summer to cycle along the romantic streets on the banks of the great river.

Everything perfect for a romantic weekend. Fantastic reception and friendliness of the managers. Thank you.
