Palazzo Doglio: Design Hotel in the Heart of Cagliari

While most of Sardinia's well-known hotels sit on the coast, the Palazzo Doglio brings urban design right into the historic old town of the island's capital.

A 19th-century palazzo

The building originally dates from the 19th century and was carefully converted into a 5-star hotel: classic fabric – high ceilings, a historic faΓ§ade – combined with clean, contemporary design elements inside.

Location

The hotel sits in Cagliari's historic centre, within walking distance of the Castello district with its medieval towers, as well as the Poetto beach promenade.

Good to know: as a base for a city trip to Cagliari, the Palazzo Doglio pairs well with a day at the nearby Poetto beach – see our article on it.
Cagliari itself is often skipped when planning a Sardinia trip – unfairly so.

Who it suits

A good choice for anyone wanting to combine a city trip with an elegant stay, rather than heading straight to the coast.
