Borgo Il Melone

Great place to stay 5 Mins from Cortona, loads of free parking, beautiful pool really big with lots of loungers,room was immaculate, 2 bedrooms with a huge sitting area and the bathroom was all tiled and really clean. Only quibble was that there could have been a better juice option at breakfast. The juice offered seemed to be some sort of re-constituted vitamin drink that I have seen in Italy before, otherwise the breakfast was plentiful with lovely fresh baked cakes on offer with the usual continental offerings of Croissants, meats, cheeses, fruits, yoghurts etc.

In most ways this is a great hotel. The desk staff in particular couldn’t be more helpful. The breakfast was very good and the pool was lovely with lots of space. We booked a deluxe room which was nice but not luxurious so not really sure what real benefit comes by booking a more expensive room apart from the size? We had two dogs which in Italy are normally free but were charged here at 10€ per dog per night. There are areas of rough ground in the hotel area where we could give them a bit of exercise. Note that the onsite restaurant is an independent business so must be booked separately

Very close to superb vineyard with wine tasting and excellent food

It is a beautiful property! Recommend it highly!! The staff went above and beyond to see that we had all that we needed.

We had an excellent 1 night stay at the hotel. The staff were friendless and helpful. We appreciated the ease of parking and had an excellent dinner in the onsite restaurant.

We wanted to stay outside of the center of Cortona and this hotel was in a great location. It was beautiful and expansive. Staff was friendly and helpful. We were able to order drinks from the front desk which were delivered to our room. The restaurant on site was convenient. The antipasti was very good, other than that the menu did not have much of a variety. For a deluxe room the bed was pretty hard with a thick ridge around the perimeter that was not very comfortable. Bathtub/shower was big but water pressure in bathroom was not very strong. Nice little patio outside our ground floor doors.

The setting of this estate is beautiful!! The rooms are well furnished and comfortable and the breakfast provided is extensive and delicious. The views to Cortona and all around the property give guests a lovely Tuscan experience!! We would love to return for a longer stay!!!

This is a nice hotel but unfortunately all services are at a distance one from the other, meaning: reception, room, restaurant (breakfast service) and parking. The day it rains, as it happened to us, you will get wet.

Hotel is good value for the money but will need car if you plan to see sights

COULD NOT HAVE BEEN BETTER
