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!!!

Amazing location, architecture, lots of great interior design. Super responsive, polite, flexible and friendly staff. Luxurious experience. Just great. What could be better: tell potential guests that your pool is not heated — ie not useable in April. Finish setting up the fancy appliances: put lights in the shower, add a holder for toilet paper in the bathroom (instead of a plastic stool), add a fan to the bathroom (smells), upkeep so faucets and hoses aren’t wobbling, fix the flickering LED lights. Provide water glasses. Use larger sheets so they don’t all end up in a pile at the end of the night. An in-room fridge that’s large enough to store a bottle of wine or champagne would be helpful. Bad: other guests were walking around in the middle of the night, and that woke us up :(

I really wanted to give this property 5 bubbles but I just can't so it's 4. The grounds are beautiful and the service is very good. Host David Papi and the staff were eager to do anything to assist. We stayed in a suite which was up two flights of stairs with no elevator so, if this is an issue, make sure you get something on a main floor. It was a lovely set of rooms but very dark. The lack of lighting was a problem for me, particularly in the bathroom. The shower stall was small but adequate but might be too small for a large and/or tall person. Our heating & a/c was not working and they apologised profusely for that and sent up a fan. However, the second night there was a wedding on the grounds and the housekeeper closed all the shutters and windows so that the noise wouldn't bother us; all it did was make it darker and stuffier during the evening. The food in the restaurant for dinner was done exceptionally well and we had a lovely (and costly!) meal. Breakfast had a large range of fruit and pastries. We asked for scrambled eggs and they came sunny side up. The second day we asked for scrambled eggs and they came scrambled but there were a lot of hard brown parts, meaning that the eggs had been cooked on a too hot grill. Overall, we enjoyed our time but I found that the value for what we paid was lacking. And this place makes a good living doing weddings so, if you are planning to stay during a weekend, you may want to check if a wedding is planned for that time.

The time of our lives!! The best of Tuscany.

My wife and I had recently stayed at La Corte Dei Papi for our 21 day honeymoon and could not have asked for any more. Upon arrival, we were greeted and checked-in by David, the owner and operator of the property. David was there to assist us in all of our requests (or demands, ha) - without hesitation. The property is stunning and meticulously groomed. The villa is picture perfect. It is very old world, with small modern touches. The pool is pristine and peaceful. The property was so stunning that we asked David if we could hire a photographer to do a photo shoot of us on the premises. He helped us in every way, and even allowed us to use the private ballroom for some photos (which is incredible!!). Also, the villa is right at the entrance of the old city of Cortona, which is an incredible medieval village, with some fantastic dining options. We would love the opportunity (and time), to go back to La Corte Dei Papi. We hope that on our next trip, we are lucky enough to bring family and friends. PS - the restaurant/food was PHENOMENAL!!

They wanted to charge us for laundry didnnot have an iron. Always looking or a way to make an extra buck after you spend so much on a hotel room. No spa services, they can refer you somewhere with astronomical prices. I loved the town we were close to but not worth the money at all. The ceiling was old and flaked onto our faces and bed sheets through the day and night and was worse when it rained. I wish I could have my money back.

It’s an amazing place you really feel your in Tuscany very authentic and beautiful and near Cortona. The rooms are 5 star hotel suits excellent and clean and every suit had its own sauna and jacuzzi. The owner David is the most honest and hospitable person you ever met and make you feel your at your home with your family. The staff are very kind and attentive. I thank them all specially David which now I consider him a friend and his hotel as my home in Tuscany. I recommend everyone to stay at this hotel, simply perfect.

Graciousness and comfort are both evident at the Relais. While it is decorated with older style furnishings, the bed and rooms were very comforable. The thing that makes this stay remarkable is it's owner...David and all him wonderful staff. I can't say enough about him. We stayed in one of the original rooms but he has recently added a new wing of rooms which I believe would be very comfortable. The only problem with our room was the lighting which tends to be on the dark side. Please DO NOT MISS eating in his restaurant. The food is 5++++ stars...delicious and beautiful in presentation. The scallops are probably the best I have ever had! I still think about them.

Hermosas Suites de lujo en la campiña de la Toscan

Primero estuvimos en una cabaña, después pedimos un cambio de habitación a una suite Definitivamente si tienen los medios económicos tienen que quedarse en las habitaciones de lujo, la cabaña es realmente, un hotel cuando mucho de tres estrellas La Suite realmente muy bonita, con su Spa con vapor y música y un fabuloso jacuzzi. La cama muy cómoda y el baño de primera. El precio muy elevado, pero la habitación muy bonita y en excelentes condiciones. Todo impecable. El desayuno bien, pero no de acuerdo al precio pagado por la Suite. Definitivamente a evitar la cottage... muy pequeña y sin lugar para guardar la ropa, y sin caja fuerte.

Lovely location and great service

All that is said about La Corte dei Papi is right; David and his team do a fabulous job. Lovely location near Cortona, great facilities with a beautiful pool area, comfortable rooms and good food. Cortona is close by and very vibrant in the late summer sun. The lunch was good, fresh and healthy but perhaps a little too expensive for something so simple. But it is a top end Hotel....
