Adjacent to the hotel, the beautiful Parco Ducale is ideal for a walk and for admiring the impressive façade of the home of the Duchess Maria Luigia. There is also a small lake with an island decorated by sculptures. Furthermore, in the park children can find the "crickets", halfway between bicycles and tricycles, to explore the park until they arrive at the Alice Library, dedicated to them.
