Relais la Pretura

Relais La Pretura is a small hotel, so if you're looking for big hotel facilities - 24hr Reception, Room Service, Laundry, etc, find somewhere else. If you don't need those, the rooms are comfortable and a decent size. The breakfast buffet is served on the roof terrace, with good views of the town. And best of all, the staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful (thanks Martino!), even managing to strong-arm some tickets for us on a sold-out boat cruise. The restaurant recommendations were also spot-on. Being small (and occupying the upper floors of the building) also meant we had difficulty finding the place. We knew where the hotel should be, but we drove past the location twice without seeing anything at ground level. It was only when we looked up that we saw the name at the top of the building! Although you can't park outside the hotel overnight (there is a paying car park about 10 minutes walk away), you can stop long enough to load/unload luggage. There are public squares either side of the hotel with bars/restaurants, so if you are an early/light sleeper, maybe bring earplugs - though it didn't really bother us.
