What an incredible stay at Il Falconiere! Exceptional service and unforgettable experiences — from Silvia Baracchi’s amazing cooking class to an unbelievable dinner at the Michelin-starred restaurant. Breakfast in the glass room overlooking the Tuscan hills was pure magic. We loved wandering through Cortona — charming streets, fantastic restaurants, and surprisingly great shopping. Already dreaming of our next visit!

This is a Relais et Château location and the quality of the accommodation (awesome room) coupled to a dining experience in their Michelin starred restaurant were exceptionally excellent. Nice and creative menus, lovely wines and very professional staff.

The property was lovely. We spent time each day in their spa watching the view. The pools are great too. Sadly, it was still a bit cold to use them.

Absolutely fabulous stay! We came as a family of 4 with our 2 college students. The rooms were perfectly appointed, the staff went above and beyond. We mentioned that we wanted a wine tasting and they made that happen the next day (a Saturday). The food at breakfast was wonderful. Parking was easy. The pool was the greatest end to a day. Dinner at Cortona twice while we were there was fun! We will definitely be back!

The hotel and grounds are beautiful and are very well maintained. The staff are very friendly and welcoming.
We did have a problem with our room which could not have been foreseen but it was dealt with.
It has a great pool and a special mention has to be given to Daniella who runs the bar, she is the hardest working person I think I have ever seen!
The hotel is let down by the food options available- the lunch menu is very small and unfortunately in the evening, if you don’t want to eat every night in the Michelin restaurant then the light dinner menu is extremely limited which a few nights stay would not be a problem but any longer, you have no option other than to go out.
The proximity to Cortona is good but you do need a car to get around, nowhere is walkable.

The propriety is one of the nicest I’ve stayed at. Very relaxing atmosphere, comfortable large pool area. Breakfast and lunch options are delicious. Room was very comfortable and spacious.
The only problem I experienced was both adjacent rooms were smokers and did so on their patios. We couldn’t enjoy our patio or leave our do open while they were doing so. The property has a health spa and other wellbeing activities, but allows smoking on the property. I would consider this next time.
