Al Vecchio Convento is an Albergo Diffuso, which best can be translated to "Spread out Hotel", situated in the historical centre of a medieval village, Portico di Romagna, in the Appennine hills between Florence and Ravenna in Tuscan Romagna.
Staying in a spread out hotel means living the village from within, having as neighbors the houses with the local inhabitants and not just hotel-rooms with tourists. Living with the village also means leaving behind stress and letting yourself being absorbed by the more relaxed rythm of local life.>>>
