Tripadvisor just released their newly updated list for 2013 Top 25 Family Hotels in the world. I love these lists from tripadvisor, I seem to always discover a new gem this way! Italy seems to dominate the Family Hotel scene and I am intrigued by #3 on the list, Family Hotel La Grotta, what a magical room!
