Quaint hotel convenient location
Pros:

We were on the ground floor which was perfect for us. Room was spacious and comfortable. A couch and desk with a chair and table lamp were in the room. There was a small refrigerator with complimentary bottled water and replenished daily. Breakfast daily was convenient for an additional daily fee. Housekeeping personnel were nice, efficient and accommodating. Room was cleaned daily and fresh towels were supplied. Front desk staff were always very helpful and accommodating. Gave recommendations of places to eat for large groups (we had 8) and even offered to make reservations. Very reasonably priced. Perfect place to stay while in Cortona!

Cons:

Bathroom was a decent size however the shower stall was very small. Even for me (I’m 5’2”). My arm kept bumping into the faucet handle and would either move it to make it hotter or colder or my elbow would shut it off. My husband who’s 6’ had much more difficulty than I.

Fabulous hotel with great customer service
Pros:

Outstanding one night stay at this beautiful hotel right in the centre of Cortona. We were given a room upgrade and were also able to check in early. The hotel organised parking with valet service. So much appreciated given we had a lot of luggage. Our room was huge with wonderful period features. Breakfast was lovely and served on an outside terrace. Cannot rate this hotel highly enough for its charm and service . Do not hesitate to book.

Cons:

Nothing at all.

Très bon séjour.
Pros:

Le petit-déjeuner était très bon et le buffet très varié. Chaque jour nous avions des bouteilles d'eau fraîche gratuites à notre disposition dans le mini bar. La personne de la réception nous a conseillé deux restaurants qui se sont avérés excellents. La situation de l'hôtel en plein centre de Cortona était très appréciable.

Cons:

La cabine de douche un peu petite.

CORTONA ES PARA PASRA MEDIO DIA Y NO PARA ALOJARSE
Pros:

la ubicacion y personal amable

Cons:

Desayuno pobre. Cochera muy chica- se lo avisan antes de llegar_ asi que hay que estacionar en las afueras de las murallas.
Si bien el baño estaba hecho a nuevo el hotel necesita aggironarse

Séjour exceptionnel.
Pros:

Nous avons tout aimé dans ce superbe hôtel au centre de Cortona.
La possibilité de garer sa voiture dans le garage de l’hôtel ( un grand merci au voiturier vraiment charmant),
La chambre spacieuse et élégante (climatisée) avec une très belle vue sur la plaine et le lac Trasimene. Grande salle de bain bien équipée.
Le petit déjeuner buffet parfait, que nous avons pris sur une charmante terrasse. La responsable du petit déjeuner est très gentille et attentionnée.
Les jeunes femmes de la réception très sympathiques,
et la présence permanente du propriétaire toujours à l’écoute des besoins des clients.
Excellent rapport qualité prix.

Cons:

Vraiment rien !

A charming historic hotel in the heart of Cortona
Pros:

A wonderful hotel in an excellent location right in the historic centre of Cortona. You can drive directly to the hotel, which is very convenient for luggage, although getting there takes you through a very narrow street! The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, and communication by email before our arrival was quick and efficient. The hotel itself is set in a beautiful historic medieval building, full of character and atmosphere. A great place to stay when visiting Cortona. Highly recommended!
