The family who run this hotel are exceptionally welcoming. The food in the restaurant is really good and great value for money. Marco and Sylvia couldn't be more friendly - they work hard and deserve success.

Great, friendly, family run hotel, with a short, easy walk to the waterfront or the train. The rooms and the hotel common areas were very clean. Our 4th floor room had a balcony with a limited view of the lake. There was a small refrigerator in the room. The shower in the bathroom is not an enclosed structure, just a curtain to pull around yourself. The complimentary breakfast had a limited selection and the bakery items were pre-packaged. There was free parking. There was a restaurant attached to the hotel, Il Passo di Giano, that served excellent food at reasonable prices. Overall, this hotel was a great value for the price!

Our stay at the 3 *** La Vela hotel in August was very enjoyable. The family-run hotel is excellent value for money: quiet, yet central location in town, large rooms, good beds, good continental buffet breakfast (juice, yoghurts, fresh fruit, cereal, muesli, bread, rolls and croissants, cheese, ham, marmelade and of course your choice of tea, capucino, latte, espresso or american coffee...) and very friendly service. We were given excellent info on the local attractions, and we really felt welcome. The restaurant serves excellent food (lunch and dinner) at very reasonable prices.
Only drawback is the rather small and old-fashioned bathroom ( it floods everytime) This is however only a small discomfort considering the rest of the hotel services. We are seasoned travelers and we really want to recommend this hotel - no hesitations.

Very friendly family run hotel. Clean and cheap. Good sized rooms. We have stayed here a few times. Free internet downstairs.

We getting married in Cortona 10 May 2007 and will be staying here till our villa is ready.
