There are only few - but fine decorated, very elegant historical - rooms in the 500 hundred years old house. The owner - David Papi - satisfies all wishes of the guests. The kitchen is fantastic, a real "houte cuisine" with excellent local specialities. The hotel has excellent wines, I propose to try Brunello, but if somebody can't decide from... more

Having driven past the accommodation last year, we decided to book and the whole experience went beyond our expectations. From the genuinely friendly welcome by David the owner to the beautifully appointed room. Not to mention the outdoor restaurant, pool and gardens. The food, wines and service are exceptional, we ate in the restaurant twice both for lunch and dinner... more

I went there with my friend. The place is lovely, just in the surroundings of Cortona. Mr. David was simply fantastic. We spent 3 nights at the maximum level. Really. And the dinner was wonderful. more

It was the best! I couldn’t of asked for a better hotel/BB to stay at. It was soooo romantic and the pictures you see is what you get. Actually, it doesn’t do it justice. The staff made it even better. The owner, was there all the time, it has been in his family (the land) for generations. It may be... more

For an absolutely idyllic stay “Under the Tuscan Sun”, book yourself a room (preferably the junior deluxe suite!) at the Relais La Corte dei Papi just outside of Cortona. The hotel lies in the little hamlet of Pergo just 5 minutes by car from the charming, hilltop town of Cortona, which was one of our favorites among all the Tuscan... more

This Relais was absolutely incredible! Charming and immaculate, we felt like special guests the entire four days of our stay. The restaurant was top notch and we felt pampered by the excellent service. By far the most outstanding part of our experience here was how kind David, the owner, was to our children ages 13, 9, and 5. We were... more

My boyfriend and I spent a week at the Corte dei Papi and it was fantastic- mornings by the pool and afternoons spent exploring the surrounding area (we particularly enjoyed Montepulciano). We loved the hotel- small and initmate and the restaurant, while a bit formal and definitely fit for a special occasion was also excellent. When we wanted something more... more

My wife and I have just returned from a brief stay in Italy and after a business visit we stayed at Corte dei Papi for 3 short days. This was not our first visit but I must say that standards here just seem to get better and better. David Papi provides most comfortable accommodation in a peaceful location just 5... more

We cannot say enough about our magnificent honeymoon at La Corte dei Papi. First of all...David (the owner) is truly one of the nicest and most gracious people we have ever met. From the moment we walked in the door he was nothing short of delightful. By the time we left we considered him family and would love to return... more
