Cortona Resort - Le Terre Dei Cavalieri

Cortona Resort - Le Terre Dei Cavalieri

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful, peaceful resort with helpful staff. Delicious, plentiful breakfast buffet on outside patio included with stay. If A/C is a deal-breaker for you, be aware that it was not very powerful (which is common in Italy, we’ve found) and we thought the room was quite warm and muggy during the summer. However, the staff was very helpful and provided us with a fan that helped a bit. Overall I highly recommend this property."

Relais Villa Baldelli

Relais Villa Baldelli

8/10 Good
"The property was relaxing and quaint. The pool was nice and the overall Tuscan country vibe and decor was nice. The location was good and the rooms were spacious. It was not walkable to anything but if you have a rental car the location is great because Cortana is a wonderful town. The staff is kind and responsive however I had an issue with the cleaning ladies where they disposed of thing of my mine thinking it was trash. I found it odd that cleaning folks would take it upon themselves to touch my things as all. I asked them to not to clean our room anymore and they did it again the next day due to poor internal communication. It was annoying to deal with that but still I would say the staff tried their best to be helpful. Lastly, I was not a fan of their breakfast. They had the basics that were heavily rooted in sweets and pork both of which I don’t eat. They made fresh plain eggs but some veggies and maybe turkey meat would have been nice. Overall, for the price point this place is good."

"Our visit was like being spoiled from the moment we arrived! The staff and even the owner were there to make sure we had everything we needed! Though our visit was in the off season, the only thing we didn't get to use was the pool as it was just too cold. The breakfast, though, was the best we have ever had while traveling! Highly recommend!!!"

What is a historic hotel like in Cortona?
