Hotels near Santuario della Madonna del Busso, Castiglione del Lago

We stayed 2 quiet nights in Hotel Lido and enjoyed our stay. Clean room with standard comfort, airco, fridge.. Good location at walking distance from the trainstation and very close to the harbour where the boats for trips on lago Trasimeno are leaving. Close to shops and restaurants too. Very kindly people working at the hotel. Good breakfast buffet with all you need. Location of the hotel at the lake is super and the small swimmingpool with bar, sunloungers and view over the lake is a bonus. Have a look at the sunset there! Recommended. Good price, quality.

Ho prenotato con coupon ma avevo già delle alternative perché avevo letto le pessime recensioni. Avevamo camera visita lago, uno spettacolo. Peccato per il rumore della superstrada proprio sotto l'albergo. Stanza piccola ma essenziale e pulita. Bagno nella norma pulito senza muffa, doccia piccolissima. No aria condizionata solo ventilatore a soffitto. Siamo stati fortunati che la sera era sempre un po' ventilato e si riusciva a dormire. Ma il rumore del traffico è fastidioso, consiglio tappi per orecchie. Per quanto riguarda la colazione, che dire, ne abbiamo usufruito solo 2 su 6 , abbiamo preferito un bar/pasticceria poco distante. Avevamo la mezza pensione, consiglio mangiare altrove, in Umbria si mangia benissimo ovunque tranne lì. Per cucinare così male ci vuole parecchio impegno. La titolare Luana con noi è stata gentile e disponibile, ma anche noi siamo stati educati. Se vi occorre un appoggio comodo ed economico per visitare il lago e dintorni e non siete troppo esigente va bene. La cosa migliore è la piscina dove potersi tuffare e rilassare dopo una giornata passata ad esplorare i dintorni che meritano.

We really enjoyed our four days here. The welcome was friendly - though we had to wait for the room to be ready. The room was large (very large for an Italian hotel), well-furnished and comfortable overlooking the garden and breakfast gazebo. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom good. It was a very hot few days - we went out each morning to nearby towns of interest - Monticchiello, Pienza, Montepulciano, Città delle Pieve, Panicale ... and came back to the hotel after lunch. At 4.00 we went to the pool - which was large, clean and well set up, pettily sited in the garden with Tuscan hills as a backdrop. We had booked half-board, so had breakfast and dinner at the hotel (in the Taverna, where the food and service was very good). Really a great break.

My primary interest was to stay close to Val d'Orca having seen such beautiful pictures of the place. However, when I bumped into Relias Villa Grazianella during my stay search in Tuscany, the pictures of the accommodation were too perfect to resist even though the location looked a bit further out from Pienza. Having visited, I am absolutely glad I made this decision LOCATION : This place looks like something out of a movie - secluded, with the feel of being so closely connected to nature, the view of shimmering lights of Montepulciano some distance away on a hill, completely surrounded by Olive trees and Vineyards. It is simply magical and makes you want to come back again and again. During the Tuscany visit I got to see a lot of farm stays, BnB etc but the size, scale, location and ambience of this place is incomparable by any other. The Villa sits in the middle of acres of agriculture land owned by a large corporate. The ambience is perfect to relax, unwind and enjoy the beautiful nature and landscape. Montepulciano is not too far from this location. VILLA : A perfect blend of traditional Italian with the modern comfort. The rooms are very large with windows opening to some extremely beautiful views and sounds of birds chirping. The restaurant decor and setup is cozy and inviting. The property's landscape is just too heavenly and beautiful. FOOD : The best food throughout our Italian trip. Fresh ingredients and excellent preparations for breakfast, what one expects from an accommodation in Tuscany. Excellent variety and portions. The true Italian smells and tastes one was looking for. STAFF : Good friendly staff, makes you feel at home. Especially the lady serving us breakfast in the morning (unfortunately forgot to ask her name) treated us like we were guests in her own home. This place is truly heaven on earth and worth booking without a thought. I wish we could have stayed longer, but will be definitely back again.

Not much to stay that hasn’t already been said about this property. It’s just a great as everyone has raved about. The service, the country side location, the history, the beautifully restored and maintained property all make for marvelous stay and experience. Since this is 5 stay property the one thing I would add is a couple notes to improve: they should be more vigilant about windows and bugs in the rooms, the doors should be updated since they are quite cumbersome to use due to their age and the ability to lock someone inside the room from the outside, and finally the rug in my room was not in best shape in probably needs to be replaced. Would definitely recommend staying here if you have the opportunity.

After a three year hiatus due to COVID, we were thrilled to be back at Villa Ambra and greeted warmly be Marzio, Katia, and Andrea. This was our sixth stay and will remain our go to hotel while in the Montepulciano area. We throughly enjoyed the evening five course meal provided by the hotel and the hearty breakfast each day. As in the past, we were able to purchase both wine and olive oil from the vineyard and groves that both Marzio and Andrea have produced from their property. We look forward to visiting our friends at Villa Ambra within the next two years.

We absolutely loved this hotel. It is in the perfect location in Cortona. Walking distance to everything. The rooms were clean and very nice. Breakfast was wonderful. A large spread of excellent food. Last but not least the staff were EXCEPTIONAL. Front dest were so helpful, we were always helped with our bags and they were all so friendly. We would stay there again!!!
