As per the title. Cost €113 for night in the middle of October, in truffle season.However absolutely no hot water on the top floor ()room 307 and 305) on a sunday at 09.30 am.Staff said they would investigate. Breakfast included in the cafe next door and was fresh and generous.Yes i would stay again as its a very pretty area, room was large and bright with view overlooking fields planted with neat rows of home grown vegtable.Free secure underground car park, and free wifi. Instant coffee in room, but only powder milk, no long life.Complimentary soap and shampoo adequarte, but on the 'cost saving' scale

Room tip: Go for corner rooms, double aspect windos

The Medea exceeded our expectations in every way. Be aware that without a car it is a bit isolated. We did have a car, though, so it was great to have free parking on the premises, and only a 5-minute drive into Alba. It was also easily accessible to the many other places we visited, much more so than if we had stayed in the center of Alba.

The room and public areas are spotless, the decor is traditional with good quality wood furniture, the bathroom is well-equipped and large, the king-size bed very comfortable. The staff could not have been nicer. We do not eat breakfast, so it was nice to have the option not to include it.

We stayed in this hotel for 1 night for a wedding in this area. It's not in the center of Alba, but the hotel is quite good and clean. Room is quite large and bathroom is pretty good. The also have a closed underground garage which is a great plus. Check-in and check-out were quick and uncomplicated Overall great value for money.

We stayed here for one night while passing through northern Italy. The hotel has a nice parking garage in the basement and elevator straight up to the roomcorridor or the reception.

The whole hotel is new and looks really nice. Air-condition. Big bathroom, comfortable bed, huge shower. We were overall really happy with it. The two drawbacks had to be the location (it is not in walking distance to anything expect the wonderful Osteria de Aurora) and the breakfast buffet. This is served in the bar on the corner of the hotel, you get a voucher in the reception, and the bar is a bit crowded of loud italians drinking their espresso and the food really wasn't that great. Not even though it was included in the price. Anyway, next time I'm in Alba I will probably have a car so the location will not be a problem. So I would stay here again! Value for money? Absolutely.

We booked this hotel as we were visiting the Truffle Festival in Alba and they had offered a good reduction. We thought it wouldn't be very good for the price but we were very pleasantly surprised. The room we had was extremely comfortable and clean and spacious with a nice en suite shower room. A very acceptable breakfast was included in the price. This is a family hotel and everyone there was very friendly. We would go again without hesitation
