Hotel Locanda del Molino - Montanare, Cortona
Localita Montanare 10 - Cortona
877-662-6988Today it is a charming Locanda with a special typical Tuscan Restaurant, completely renovated by Riccardo and Silvia Baracchi, owners too of “Relais & Châteaux Il Falconiere”.
A heaven of tranquillity and elegance, in the middle of the Cortona countryside, a land famous for its culture, cuisine, and great wines.
Locanda del Molino with its romantic rooms, is located in Montanare, on the upper Esse valley, and just few kilometers away from the Etruscan town of Cortona. The environment that surrounds Locanda del Molino is very interesting both for culture and for landscapes.
There are eight guestrooms overlooking the creek, where every guest will experience the relax of sleeping while lulled by the sound of the waterfall.
Each room has been individually decorated and fully furnished by Silvia: it will feature either
four poster beds or upholstered frames, antique or country style furniture, yet each room shows
its authenticity of the almost lost flavors so characteristic of the Cortona countryside.

If you want to have restful night of good sleep don't go to this hotel. The good news is that the restaurant is pretty good. The bad news is that the rooms are right above the restaurant and you can hear EVERYTHING that happens below and next to your room (loud talking and laughing of the people eating and loud music till late at night, everything the guest in room next door are doing, etc. etc.). When we requested to get a room with more piece and quiet on the second night, the answer of the owner was "don't worry, tonight it will be quieter"--needless to say, it was worst --with people even running and screaming through the corridor next to the rooms at 1am... On top, the people in charge of the morning shift were not able to give good advice on the region and the morning we left, even though we had said several times we needed to leave early, and being reassured we would have breakfast, there was no breakfast and no one to serve it. Finally, the hotel is pretty far from Cortona --at least 15 minutes. In sum, if you're in the region, try the restaurant, but don't stay in the hotel.

The hotel was lovely, nicely decorated and spotlessly clean as if 5 stars hotel. We had a great stay here and used here as base to travel around small town in Tuscany. It is 10 minutes drive to Cortona. Breakfast are plenty with lots of choices serving in beautiful hotel restaurant. The only thing that made us a bit disappointed from expectation is surrounding. Since we imagined that the hotel would be in Tuscan field or garden, however, the hotel is by the main road across gas station on one side, while the another side is by tiny creek and crowded plants. Though, if you are not expecting staying in Tuscan farmhouse fell, then this place is perfect for peaceful stay.

We stayed in a suite for four, beautifully furnished with antiques and oriental carpets.Our children slept on futons in one room, and our bed was very comfortable. We appreciated the turn-down service. The common area of the inn is charming and cozy with a fireplace that was lit in the evening. Best of all, we could walk in the vineyards and lanes surrounding the inn.Breakfast was plentiful with cakes, cheese, salumi and fruit.We also enjoyed a delicious dinner there. The only drawback: our rooms were adjacent to the road and there was some noise early in the night and morning.The other rooms were on the back side of the inn farther from the road so this would not be an issue. This hardly detracted from the enjoyment of our stay, however, because the Locanda is such a delightful place overall.
