The elegant spaces and spacious common areas create a welcoming and refined atmosphere, perfect for those looking to indulge in relaxation within a charming setting.
The establishment spans multiple levels. On the ground floor, guests will find a breakfast room equipped with personal refrigerators, each secured with a key for every room, a cozy lounge area featuring large sofas and a wood-burning fireplace, as well as an outdoor courtyard where guests can enjoy breakfast al fresco during the pleasant seasons. A delightful hot tub with sun loungers adds to the relaxation spaces, nestled in a private and serene environment.

Breakfast is one of the most meticulously attended moments of the stay. Every morning, Laura, Fabrizio, or other qualified family members, compliant with HACCP regulations, are available to assist guests, prepare scrambled eggs on request, serve freshly sliced cold cuts, and provide guidance on using the coffee machine and milk frother to enjoy a cappuccino made like at a café. Throughout the day, guests are free to use the microwave and refrigerators to store or heat their personal food and beverages.
Additionally, there are four covered and secured parking spaces available for guests, suitable for larger vehicles, accessible through an automated gate.

The Bed and Breakfast Borgo dei Duchi is located in Rivarolo Mantovano, in a strategic position between Cremona, Mantua and Parma. This B&B is a true oasis of tranquility housed in an elegant, finely renovated historic building. The first thing that strikes you is the impeccable cleanliness. Every area is cared for with rare precision: rooms, bathroom and common areas immediately convey a sense of order, freshness and attention to detail. It is evident that nothing is left to chance here and that the guests' wellbeing is an absolute priority. The comfort is simply excellent. The rooms are spacious, elegant, quiet and tastefully furnished, able to combine the charm of a historic residence with all modern conveniences. After a day spent exploring the beauties of the area, returning here means truly feeling at home, pampered in a refined and relaxing environment. But the real added value of this property has a name: Laura. Mrs. Laura is an extraordinary hostess, one of those people who make a difference. Kind, thoughtful, helpful and always smiling, she welcomes every guest with a naturalness and human warmth that are increasingly rare today. Her sincere attention to the needs of those staying at Borgo dei Duchi turns a simple stay into a special experience. You feel welcomed as friends, not as customers. The breakfast also deserves a special mention: abundant, varied and carefully prepared, with fresh products and many attentions that make the day start in the best way. There is also much care for food intolerances; everyone can find products suitable for their needs.
