This very fragrant spice gives the name to one of the best stay at Hotel Certaldo.

 

It is one of the oldest spices, used also by ancient Egyptians and considered the most important one, it was also cited in Aristotle’s writings.
Differently than most of the other spices, cinnamon is not obtained by the leaves or by the flowers of the plant, but it comes from the internal part of the tree bark, to be left to dry up, in order to obtain the classic stick shape that we know.

As the cinnamon has an intense scent, also our stay in Cannella (cinnamon) type at Hotel Certaldo has the perfume list among its offered services: delicate fragrances to be diffused in your room and let your stay at Hotel Certaldo even more comfortable and unforgettable!
