Our fouth family holiday (2 adults, three children) in Umbria. Our first time at Il Convento, which I do not hesitate to recommend. We stayed in Il Re appartment. Good sized, clean, very comfortable beds. Lovely location and well kept old buildings. The pool is far nicer than Il Convento's photos suggest, with a good shaded area and lots of... More

A wonderful place with all the luxury of a pool, hot tub, both with a panoramic view over the hills, spacious rooms with authentic furniture and all the equipment you need. Sitting on the sunset terrace, having a nice BBQ and watch the rolling hills of Umbria - what more can you expect from a holiday home. But in addition... More

Want to thank Joan for her wonderful hospitality. A consumate concierge with a personal touch. The Convento is on the onset a little secluded, however, once oriented, the location is ideal for day trips around the region. Once settled, and with Joan's concise directions, everything was at our doorstep.....Cortona, Lago Trasimeno, Perugia, Umbertide, Urbino, Gubio, Montone, Assisi, Deruta, Todi and... More

We just returned from our stay at the Convento Mincione, a beautifully restored convent on top of a hill in rural Umbria. The apartment was huge, with two private bedrooms and baths, and a large living room and open kitchen. From the window, we could see the moon rise over the Umbrian hills. Joan is a friendly, knowledgeable, helpful hostess.... More

Beautiful apartments in the most beautiful and peaceful surroundings. I cannot recommend them too highly. Each room has all modern comforts, but the renovation is extremely tasteful and fully in keeping with this ancient and characterful property. Each room has its own personality and its own antiques. The location is splendid - on the top of a hill amongst other... More

This ancient property has been beautifully restored and is full of character and the accommodation is of a superb quality. The charming American owner and & her daughter are on hand... More

I was in the middle of an extended vaca and knowing Rome was gonna be a marathon, I needed this place to ground me. August in Umbertide was full of festivals, mostly live classical concerts, or dance- Rufus Wainwright performed! There are several towns close by that host them, including a Jazz Fest in Perugia-AWESOME romantic city. The convent itself... More

Perfeto! Rooms with a view. Great location to tour both Umbria and southern Tuscany. The restaurant just up the road has stunning sunsets and great value home cooking, not forgetting "claire de Luna " restaurant in montone. The convent has a real rustic charm and nothing is too much trouble for either joan or ronie. A big thanks to jacky... More

My husband and I recently stayed at Il Convento Mincione for three-nights, and it really was one of the best weekends in my life. My husband and I have stayed in lovely hotels world-wide (we are with the US Foreign Service and have lived overseas for twenty years). Il Convento Mincione is a lovingly transformed 12th century former convent into... More
