Top Solo Travel Deals Italian Castle Hotels Old World Charm:

Castle hotels are always at the top of my list for charming places to stay and often save in Europe. Why is that? They tend to be in the country away from the high city prices. Most have Old World style with new 20-21^st century updates.  France and Germany lead the way. However, Italy too has many castle hotels.  Here are five to try from as low as $97 to a luxury option at $281. Pricing varies daily. We used May 2017 as a starting point.  As is always the case, you will find the best prices outside of the high summer tourist months of June-August.  Be sure to check for your dates as to what is available.
