Good price and room comfortable but could have been cleaner. Blanket on bed covered in pet hair We were led to believe Cortona was walkable, it definitely was not.

We’ve stayed there before, but had a car. This time, it said they had rental cars and could assist with taxis. Not true at all! Most of our group had to walk from the train station with luggage and then we walked back into town after we were told there were no rentals or taxis that day or the next. We got lucky at a fiat dealer and we’re able to rent a car. Also, the air conditioning was not reliable in two of the rooms and my son was told it was June and he could open a window (no screens). I always confirm there is air conditioning before booking hotels. I’m not sure if they have new management, but I was disappointed

Definitely recommend a car for visiting the surrounding area and reaching the hotel. The restaurant food was good, although a little pricey for what was served. Pool was wonderful. My comfort double room was very clean, comfortable bed, and very large and clean bathroom. The property was lovely and has many fruit trees! The breakfast was quite good with excellent coffee!

Great Hotel for starting a Tuscan Tour
We loved this hotel, and were only sorry we had just one night there. The grounds are superb and make you feel as if you are living in a very nice estate just outside town, in a self-contained park that was very relaxing, and in a room that was antique yet modern, and super comfortable. The town of Cortona is a short drive (or a LONG uphill hike) and a perfect introduction to Tuscany. We arrived on a warm sunny afternoon and had enough time to use the lovely pool to relax after a long drive from Napoli, and before heading to Cortona to explore the town for some touring and an alfesco drink before returning for a very memorable dinner on the hotel's terrace. My one son who had to return to Hong Kong the day before saw our pictures and was terribly disappointed to have missed this stay. This may be a bit far afield for a base to visit all of Tuscany, but it is a perfect venue for that area of Italy, and a great place to start our Tuscan tour. Would return in a minute!
