Beside Sant'Anastasia, Due Torri stands on the site of the fourteenth-century Palazzo dell'Aquila, where the Bordieri family ran an inn from 1674 and tradition puts the thirteen-year-old Mozart in 1770, then Goethe and Garibaldi. Enrico Wallner reopened the house on 31 December 1958 with Pino Casarini frescoes of the Arena, and Duetorrihotels took over in 2010. About eighty-nine rooms still wear antiques.

About Due Torri Hotel

History

The Due Torri Hotel stands in the medieval heart of Verona beside the church of Sant'Anastasia, on a site whose building history reaches back to the 14th century, when the Palazzo dell'Aquila rose here. From 1674 the premises operated as an inn under the Bordieri family, later becoming the Grand Hotel Imperiale and hosting travellers on the Grand Tour, among them, by tradition, the 13-year-old Mozart in 1770, as well as Goethe and Garibaldi.

The modern luxury hotel was inaugurated on 31 December 1958 by the hotelier Enrico Wallner, who restored the historic building; the works engaged the painter Pino Casarini, whose frescoes evoke Verona's Roman Arena. In 2010 the Due Torri passed to the Duetorrihotels group. With around 89 rooms furnished with antiques, it remains one of the city's most storied addresses and a member of The Leading Hotels of the World.
