We stayed here on our second stop of a two week vacation to Italy. We drove from Venice and arrived a bit tired at 4pm. Our stay was May 15-19, 2012. Though the inn is a bit difficult to find (we didn't have GPS), it was certainly worth the effort. For those who are more accustomed to a full service... More

we found our host david to be quite helpful attentive and accomidating. the updating of this villa has been a 9 year effort and they are doing a great job. we enjoyed the romantic restaurant on our final night there and found it impeccable. Opposite of the review by Lulu we felt David bent over backward to provide an excellent... More

Dawn, Les & Delma We were lucky to have the opportunity to stay at La Corte Dei Papi on our trip visiting Italy, it was the perfect place to have the Tuscany experience.

My husband and I toured Italy for our anniversary last year and stayed at many fantastic places. However, we do not consider La Corte Dei Papi to be high on that list. Upon arrival to La Corte Dei Papi, we were exhausted as we had been traveling all day to get there. Despite arriving after the check-in time, we were... More

This place is spectacular. The setting is in the Tuscan countryside near the beautiful city of Cortona. The accomodations are a lovely refurbished stone farmhouse. David the owner is the most gracious host and will ensure that your stay is memorable. To top it off the restaurant is truly 5 star. The food is very Tuscan; fresh, wonderfully prepared and... More

We had 4 cooking classes organized for us - wonderful. The chefs of the 4 star... More

My husband and I stayed here in July 2010 for 10 days and upon reading the mainly very positive reviews here feel we need to provide a review. The villa is a very pretty restoration with nice pool and gardens. Our room was small but very beautifully furnished and a great jet shower. The hotel is a few kms from... More

Of the 3 weeks and half dozen hotels we stayed at, nothing compared to this place. In fact, no hotel or lodge I have ever stayed at compares. 5 star hotels have NOTHING on this place! The owner makes the place. He is so incredibly hospitable and warm and welcoming. David was the owner, the host, the waiter, the bell... More

We found David's hotel, La Corte dei Papi an amazing experience. He and his mother are so welcoming, food delicious, room lovely, large and comfortable, grounds and pool beautiful. Convenient to all Tuscany. We have been in the travel business 30 years and will recommend this without reservation. David is now a friend. Frank and Nancie
