First off, Cortona is BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING! Such an amazing old walled city to walk, photograph and enjoy! Second, this property is one of the most beautiful and ancient places I’ve ever stayed! The halls and rooms were stunning. Old stone and iron everywhere. We stayed in the top room with the terrace. Oh man, I just can’t tell you how beautiful and fun this stay was. We sat on the terrace and watched the meteor shower while I did night photography! This property is stunning. The parking down the hill was free! Just pull into the parking lot, park, then call the desk to get you a taxi up to the hotel! Unless you’re fit and can climb a hill with suitcases get a quick 2 minute taxi up there! Trust me, it’s a walled city and the walk up and down is a thing! It’s only 150 yards or so but damn, it’s an ancient cobble stone hill! Get the ride! Bring comfy shoes because you’re gonna walk the whole town!

We were both delighted and terrified about staying at this hotel! It was a great hotel in all aspects a traveler wanted. The room was great.The staff was great. The hotel itself was very interesting with some large common rooms which were perfect settings for your camera. The hotel was a couple steps from the main charming square where they shot the movie Under The Tuscan Sun. So it was in a perfect location, right? Not so fast! The perfect location was also on top of a very steep hill, and the road was a very narrow coble-stone road. I guess it was nothing if you were the local. But for a bad American driver like myself, it was terrifying. My tiny underpowered rental car bearly squeezed through the road, and I was lucky not to run over anyone because the road was so steep all I could see was the blue sky above, not the road below. It was some experience! But, we got through the fear and had a wonderful time at this hotel

The staff is hands down the best part about this property. They're attentive and helpful. It's a very unique, old property located just off the main part of the town. There are restaurants very close by and it's maybe a two minute walk to the main square. Breakfast was quite good. The only thing I didn't like was the location of our room, which was basically in the attic, up a tilted, uneven staircase. The roof sloped and we couldn't even use part of the room. We had one, very tiny window. Granted, it did have an amazing view of the valley, so we liked that. We were told we had gotten the very last room, so there wasn't a way to move to a better room. The only other issue was that the bed was really hard.

We enjoyed a four-night stay in one of their superior rooms and appreciated its spaciousness, in-room fridge, and attentive staff. They offer a great breakfast spread each morning, and are a minute's walk from the town's main piazzas. We'd be happy to stay again next time in town.
