“A place to stay but nothing to do and no dinner served!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We booked this hotel because we thought it was a good place to stay in. It was a good place to stay, no question about it but the problem was that you had to get out of the place to get lunch and dinner and that to me is not good service. When we asked the staff they told us thet they did not serve lunch and dinner but it was nothing we could guess from visiting the website or when we booked the hotel. The hotel building was nice and had a nice architecture and nice rooms, big nice pool in the garden but that was it. The tiny two hole golf course/driving range was totally destroyed by wild pigs so that was not so good. This place has some distance to go before I can give it a higher rating, the service needs to get a lot better. Thinking about the value for money, no I wouldn't say that it is great value for money because of the fact that you have to leave the place to get some food. To me that is not an optimal hotel stay at all. Some times you just want to relax in the room and take a quick bite before you go to bed...but that is not possible in this place. Oh, yes I have forgot to tell you how slow teh WiFi was, really slow and it did not even work in the rooms.

“Honeymoon Heaven”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 December 2011

Located just a mile from the lovely town of Cortona, this idyllic villa is both rustic and upscale. Although the drive in was deceptive, once we arrived, we fell in love instantly with this renovated property set within a vineyard in the heart of Tuscany. The grounds are beautifully manicured. The lobby and dining room were charming, with stone floors, wood beam ceilings, huge area rugs and authentic fireplaces. Our room was enchanting, with windows overlooking the terrace, an enormous plush bed, antique furnishings, and a delicious, modern bathroom. The combination of 21st century amenities such as wifi and marble bath blended perfectly with the old-world charm of the place. However, it was the staff that really made us feel special and welcome. Even though we showed up late on a Sunday, they opened the restaurant just for us to enjoy dinner... which was scrumptious. Each morning, the breakfast was delicious and different. Even the wine from their vineyard was exquisite; our favorite from the over 50 different ones we tried all over Italy during our two week trip. When we were leaving, we tried to buy a bottle of their wine and they refused to sell it to us... but gifted it to us instead. They made us feel like family rather than guests at a hotel. We stayed only a couple of nights but we wished we had stayed there our entire trip. It was a great home base to visit Montepulciano, Montalcino, Pienza and Sienna. The location was ideal to keep exploring the area for another week. We are sure to return to Villa Baldelli again!

“Excellent Villa Just Outside Cortona”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 December 2011

Beautiful Villa located just down the hill from Cortona. We only stayed one night and had rain so we were not able to enjoy the beautiful grounds, but the villa is very romantic and charming. Both rooms that we had were lovely with fantastic bathrooms. We had a leak in our first room when we returned from dinner, but the night manager quickly helped us move to a new room. The breakfast was not our favorite, but the villa was not very busy the night that we stayed. The staff was very nice and accommodating, and we would stay her again!

“Charming and elegant - all you need to relax in a chic tuscan atmosphere”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 November 2011

We stayed at the villa 2 nights during our yearly one week motorcycle tour. Very nice place, a typical Tuscan villa, sorrounded by olive trees, nice decoration classical bt not overdone, nice large pool and excellent friendly service. They have different type of rooms for different rates; the one we picked was a bit on the small side but very nice and pleasantly decorated. Excellent beds and very quiet during the night so very good sleep;

“Wonderful place!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 November 2011

person found this review helpful

We stayed at the Villa for 2 nights during our recent trip to Tuscany and Umbria. This is one of my most favorite places. It is beautiful, very well maintained, comfortable, quiet. It's also very romantic. The staff is super friendly. Breakfasts are good - try their plum cake in the morning- nowhere else I have tasted such a thing during our trip! If the weather is good - it's a pleasure to sit outside in the garden with a cup of coffee. Our room was pretty comfortable and nicely decorated. One little thing - if one used a toilet the other has to wait for 10-15 min until the water gets filled in for next flush ;-)) But I consider is to be a minor thing compared to the beauty of this place!
