Borgo Dei Conti Resort Relais & Chateaux

I really enjoyed my short stay in Borgo Dei Conti. It's well worth a visit, especially since there are lots of beautiful towns in the area - I only had time to visit Solomeo and Panicale this time around, but you could spend weeks driving around this part of the country without running out of places to visit. My room was excellent. Dinner was good, but not great, and the same for breakfast (the iced latte was the highlight - surprisingly good). I have no major complaints about the hotel, the only reason I gave it 4 stars rather than 5 is because nothing really blew me away either. But I would definitely consider a return visit.

Just returned for 4 nights at this lovely hotel after its long renovation. I was traveling with my wife and adult daughter and we had two rooms. We booked our rooms through Amex fine hotel and resorts which included free breakfast and room upgrade. I had booked executive room for my daughter and her upgrade was to a slightly higher category room with a small viewing room up a flight of stairs. Our room was a deluxe suite and we were given a patio suite as an upgrade. The rooms were both very nice. Our suite was huge with small patio and very nice bedroom and living room. The decorations were lovely. The biggest issue of the room was the air conditioning. During our visit it was quite hot and the a/c in our suite room could not cool the room to a comfortable level. The manager of the hotel was very apologetic and brought us a fan to help and assured us they would address the issue after we left for future guests but the lowest we could get the room at night was 76 to 77 degrees which was too hot for us to sleep. My daughter’s room cooled to about 70 her room was better in that regard. Additionally I found the mattress to be too firm but my wife and daughter felt it to be comfortable. Other positives were the staff were all friendly and the manager really tried to help make our stay enjoyable. The grounds were lovely and the pool was the perfect temperature. We had breakfast every day which was nice but not quite to the level I expected given the cost of the rooms but still very good. Dinner by the pool was very good with excellent pizza and pasta. We also had dinner at Cedri which was a big disappointment. We did the chef tasting meal for 155 euros per person. The dinner service was quite slow with meal taking almost 3.5 hours. The food had a few good courses but several courses were not very good. They did have an excellent wine list at reasonable choices. For the price and service at Cedri I would not recommend eating there. Overall, the resort is lovely and a beautiful setting. Had the air conditioning worked I would have enjoyed our stay but 4 sleepless nights in the heat really put a damper on our experience. If you could be confident the air conditioning was fixed I would not hesitate to recommend this resort. Given the managers eagerness to make guests happy, I think he will get it working and maybe with more time and training Cedri will improve. The area of Umbria is quite lovely and the hotel is a good base to explore perugia, Assisi, Spello etc. Don’t miss having dinner at Lillo Tatini in Panicale. It is close by and a great experience.

Congratulations! What an extraodanary experience. Fine hospitality, family hotel and restaurant, great gastronomy, fine service, open for youngsters and children. We had dinner at Cedri Ristorante. Arriving at the gate we had to announce ourselves, after hearing that we were expected, we started a ride of 800 meters and arrived at the castle, drove to the entry where we left the car, which has been driven to the parking by the concierge. This hotel and restaurant has it all. Beautifully, properly and state of the art dressed at the reception, the waitstaff, maître d’hotel, sommelier, concierge the adventure could begin. Friendly and cheerful service. The interior & design is new and shows a modern design combined with respect for the class of ancient times. We were guided at the terasse for the aperitive with view at the garden and the Lake, we could see through the trees. Eventhough temperature went up to 36C today, we enjoyed the slight brease and a fresh moment due to the trees and the screens that protect the terasse against the heat. Large winelist and separate list of aperitives. We took the tasting menu at the terasse with two adapted excuisite wines from the Umbria region. Nicely dressed table, fine wineglasses, our discovery continued. Fine flavours and textures gave a recognisable classic and creative mediterrane cuisine without exaggetation. What a lovely and harmonious evening for my wife, our 4 youngsters and myself. We enjoyed it in all its aspects. Congratulations for this masterpiece in hospitality which started already days before with the cheerful confirmation. Thank you!

Magical castle nestled in the middle of Umbria. One of the finest hotels I have ever seen. Every detail perfectly appointed.

Amazing resort, surrounded by nature and a beutifule park. Great pool and very delicious food at the pizzeria. The second resutaurant where dinner is served was disappointing, and no many choices for vegetarians. The rooms are very comfortable, too bad no espresso machine at the room and the coffees at the resort restaurants are too over-priced. Very delicious brakefast.

Great hotel. Very friendly and accommodating staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here
