Cortona Hotel Advice
Can anyone recommend a hotel in Cortona? A friend of mine is going in mid to late February. She had a reservation at Il Falconiere but has been reading some unfavorable reviews about it on Trip Advisor and considering the fact that it is pretty expensive, she is now thinking of switching to a different hotel. She is now considering Relais La Corte dei Papi but it is a few miles from town and their restaurant is closed in February. Any suggestions would be most welcome!

What about an apartment instead - here's a lovely apartment right in Cortona and they might do a shorter term rental during February

We stayed at the San Michele in October for four nights....very enjoyable. Room was spacious and the bath was one of the best we have had in Italy. It was located a few steps from the main square. Breakfasts were quite good.
It should be noted that most of Cortona is very steep although the main street is level. The hotel has parking for an extra cost but we parked for free outside the walls which required walking up a steep hill.

Tell your friends that they would enjoy Montepulciano more that time of year--look at Locanda San Francesco, a new B&B. But, if stuck on the Cortona mistique then look at a good value at www.lagelosie.com
