House of the Santuario di Oropa

The Sanctuary and Sacro Monte di Oropa, a UNESCO heritage site offers a unique heritage to discover. Away from the stress of the city, in Oropa you will have the opportunity to stay in a charming and spiritual place, to walk in nature and to rediscover the peace and tranquility in a fascinating landscape. A unique offering in Italy's north.

Santuario di Oropa is one of the main attractions of the area - the Savoy Royal Pavilion and sacred library (both parts of this complex) are UNESCO Heritage listed.

The main chapel at the venue was opened in 1620, and contains a shrine dating back to the 9th century. Adorned with stunning frescoes, this is only one of twelve chapels at the venue.

The surrounding area provides opportunity for hiking and bicycle riding in the warmer months, while the town of Biella is easily accessible for a day trip.
 
Rated 4.6 out of 5
The setting is beautiful, and the temperatures much cooler than down in the valley. We had a fantastic hike up the mountain behind the Sanctuario. The rooms were quiet and comfortable and the staff were very pleasant.
