What people say

The description of this hotel fails to mention that it is on the grounds of a huge public swimming pool complex with a water slide and lots of noisy children. Evenings include loud music from the poolside bar. This is not a good destination for those looking for a peaceful night but it might appeal to a family with children. No Hot Water.

Information about the area

Cortona, one of the twelve original cities forming the Etruscan confederation, is little changed from medieval times. Its enormous Etruscan walls were erected in 700 B.C. and encircle structures which haven’t been changed since the medieval period. With the exception of a few Renaissance palaces, the buildings of Cortona date back to medieval times; follow the narrow, winding and steep streets into an ancient time that most people only ever read about. From anywhere in Cortona you will have fantastic views over Valdichiana, with sweeping views of Lake Trasimeno towards Umbria.
