 Deserted Grand Hotel in Italy An avid urban explorer ventures into a deserted grand hotel in Northern Italy. The hotel was inaugurated in 1882 with 170 guest rooms on 4 floors. On the ground floor is a grand hall, a sumptuous dining room and a deco-style glass door as well as some rooms, while on the upper floors the guest rooms. There are facilities for thermal spa treatments and an outdoor swimming pool. Following a drop in patronage and a radical change in tourism, the hotel was closed in 2007. Urban exploration is based on the principles of take nothing except picture, leave no trace and not revealing the location.

Only 1 examining bed with a weighing scale and very old banages can be found in a room. The third building up the slope appears to be for children with many kid-size chairs and damaged mattresses.
