We stayed at San Luca last Nov. It's at a gate to the town-everything is in easy walking distance-we stayed in a room w/a balcony and an incredible view of the Val di Chiana.Sitting on that balcony sipping tuscan wine at sunset is a fond memory.Our second visit in 2 years

I plan to stay at the Hotel San Michele at the end of March, on the recommendation of several guidebooks. For a description, see www.cortona.net or www.karenbrown.com/italy. People on this board have recommended the Hotel San Luca as well.

Hi, I picked up a brochure from the San Michele last fall. It looked beautiful and is very well located; just off the main townsquare. The email address on the brochure is [email protected]. I would make sure that you and your suitcases are dropped off at the hotel door if possible. Cortona has some steep streets and this hotel is towards the top of one! Of course you are packing lightly - right?

I didn't stay there, but the San Michelle certainly looked nice from the outside, and the location is excellent. I think they will let you drive your car up the hill to drop off the luggage, but then you have to park outside the walls. There's a great restaurant next door, whose name escapes me, but I can look it up for you. We had an excellent meal there.
