We used this delightful hotel as a stop over on our journey north after a stay in Rome. We discovered that the area is famous for the production of Parmesan Cheese, Parma Ham and it's Thermal Spas. Hotel Boomerang is set on the edge of town, our room had views of open fields (and the swimming pool) from the balcony and we were made very welcome by the charming lady owner and her sons. Our room was spacious and spotlessly clean. This hotel is full of character, not the most up to date fixtures, but all well maintained and very comfortable. Our room did not have air conditioning (some do) but the fan swiftly supplied when we asked kept us cool and comfortable during the night. Dinner served in the dining room was authentic Italian fare, simple, delicious traditional and very nicely presented. A relaxing drink and coffee on the terrace after dinner made for a very pleasant end to the day. We will be returning to the area to explore more next year. There are castles, musical heritage (Verdi lived in the area) and for us the draw would be Hotel Boomerang. This is a family run Hotel, much loved by the owner and her sons and that showed in the way that they looked after their guests.
