the owners of the property could not do enough and were must charming. Carlo and Paola work so terribly hard but always ready to talk and smile with the guests. It is very much a family hotel with the gentle Nonna always about to help if she can.
But to the main reason this hotel was chosen was because of Carlo's wonderful cooking. Cannot recommend it highly enough!

Most amazing meals! Great value! The hair dryer and electric outlets were not great but we managed. Staff is so friendly and accommodating. Very clean considering it's age. The wine list is out of this world. Top notch Chef Carlo wears tons of hats with total elegance. He is a fantastic sommelier, host, chef, bell hop, concierge etc etc. Such fabulous personal service. It was a real treat!

Gourmetophold surprise
Fantastisk hyggeligt sted med rar og personlig service. Hotellet ejes af en famile, og det mærkes. Selv med kun to overnatninger, bliver man en del af familien. Det særlige ved stedet er middagen, som er på Michelin niveau og som serveres i en hyggelig have af dygtige folk. Selvom stedet ikke ligger i en særlig spændende by, er alt indenfor køreafstand. Mange tak til Carlo og hans familie for et uforglemmeligt ophold.

A culinary gem!
What a find! We are on a roadtrip and booked this last minute. Cortemilia is a small town and we didn't expect much besides getting a good night sleep. Then it turns out that San Carlo is owned and run by an Italian Top Chef who has cooked for Sophia Loren, Michelle Obama among others. If you stay there you absolutely must get dinner. It is a 6 course menu (changing daily) with a Michelin star level service and quality. You eat in a beautiful garden a delicious food, drink delicious wine and you forget about the world.
The hotel itself is bit old school but very comfortable and clean. The pool in the garden is fabulous for an afternoon dip. The owners Carlo and Paola are extremely nice and helpful. All in all, I recommend this place 120%

San Carlo is serving top quality dinners
Hotel San Carlo in Cortemilia is a small family owned business where you are taken care of as part of the family. The hotel is high class style in a relaxing way and all is well kept and clean. There is a very nice garden for relaxing. The dinner in the evening is one of the best if not the best we have ever got. The chef is doing a fantastic job and deserves very well the fame he has achieved. Highly recommended for couples as well as families with children

Rave review for Hotel San Carlo
We had a wonderful stay at San Carlo. It is a family run hotel with comfortable accommodations, a lovely garden and swimming pool and positively fabulous food. While some may be disappointed if they are looking for a Four Seasons experience, we tend to go for smaller inns and hotels and this was top notch for that. It is comfortably located in the Piedmonte area, filled with vineyards, wineries and hazelnut fields. It is a quick train trip to Turin, a lovely historic city. Carlo, the owner and chef, prepared memorable meals - such a special treat.

The hotel is very good and Carlo is an excellent cook. We had both evenings a very good diner on the terras with a view at the garden. The first evening we chose from the menu and the second evening we just asked Carlo to surprise us. And he did.
We would like to come back.

Un grazioso albergo con piscina e buon ristorante, anche in giardino.Buona colazione, camera sufficientemente ampia e condizionata, tutti molto gentili.
Il prezzo è un po' caro considerato il paese.

Wir waren vom 5.6.19 für eine Nacht auf unserer Motorradrundreise in der Villa San Carlo, und sehr freundlich empfangen, betreut und verabschiedet.
Dieses Haus ist mit diesen Gastgebern immer einen Abstecher nach Cortemilia wert.
Danke viel mal

Amazing hotel !
This is probably one of the best hotels we stayed at. From the moment we arrived everything was beyond perfect .. They made us feel special in a very familiar and friendly way. The room and hotel were cozy and elegant at the same time. The breakfast was amazing and the food at the dinner restaurant couldn’t be better !

The chef is the main attraction.
It can be considered a country hotel, because it is in a tiny city. The hotel is family managed, they all speak English. Rooms are good. Breakfast could be better. If you consider only this it is a hotel like any other, nothing special. However the main attraction is the owner, a renowed chef. So many people come for the food experience. But if you intend to have dinner there it is necessary to book in advance, sometimes three months before. We haven´t booked, so there was no dinner for us. If you need just a place to sleep check more options because this place isn´t cheap.
