Hotel Corso - Orvieto

8.4

Good location. Glad we stayed there. Wife loved the many jets in the shower. I (at 6'2" height) found the shower to be very small. Room was apparently the largest in the hotel (#18) and the one featured in the hotel brochure. Found a "queen" and single bed in the double room. Queen bed ended up being 2 singles, pushed together. Front desk sometimes empty as long as 15 minutes. Was concerned, as some people left their bags there - unattended. Ended up taking our room key ourselves once after waiting 15 minutes.

Lovely venue, very helpful staff, excellent breakfast, a bit expensive for area

9.3

Hotel Corso was a very pleasant and convenient place to stay in Orvieto. It was easily accessible from the train station, so no car was needed. It was within easy walking distance to the sights of Orvieto, as were most places. The room was well equipped, roomy, and clean. There was a lift for those not liking stairs. The breakfast was good. Overall, excellent and I would return and recommend to anyone.

9.2

Staff were friendly and helpful and English adequate. I think we 5 were unusual in that we stayed for 7 days. We loved sitting on the little terrace especially in the early evening. The town is delightful with plenty of good restaurants but don't expect to be able to go to many other towns from Orvieto - there isn't much public transport.

9.2

Hotel Corso is a very friendly hotel in the heart of Orvieto. Free parking is a short walk away. The hotel is on a main street with lots of shops and restaurants. The room was spacious and the shower was fantastic.

7.1

Hotel was near to the funicular, which for anyone not travelling by car, is a bonus. Architecture of the building is typical of the town and though it does not have a restaurant the beakfast was good with a broad selection of food. Location of the hotel is in a quiet area though there was some internal noise from the reception area as guests arrived or left. I enjoyed my stay. Orvieto is a super venue and handy for the train to Rome and other local attractions.

My first time at the Hotel Corso, but it will not be my last. It is an excellent hotel.

9.3

Nice little walk both from station and center of city. Nice little hotel.

As an over 50 mother travelling with my 21 year old son for a month in Italy accommodation was sometimes tricky but our room at the Hotel Corso (directly above the entrance) was very good - a double bed & a single bed with enough room to move around and a good size bathroom. I had read reviews about the grumpy, rude guy at reception so we fully expected a less than ideal welcome. Not so - everyone at the Corso were courteous and friendly throughout our stay. The buffet breakfast was excellent with a variety of cereal, yoghurt, fruit, cheese, meats, cakes, toast (Italian prepacked) and real coffee - perfect for my son who was suffering from the miserly offerings in other hotels. The location was perfect - a short walk from the funicular and to anywhere in the old town. Orvieto is a beautiful town with amazing views - the wow factor greets you around every corner. Throw away the map and walk around the walls and streets at random - you won't regret it. We were there late October - the autumn colours abound and the weather was perfect for sight seeing and there were very few fellow tourists.

6.8

Great little B & B hotel, basic facilities but very convenient for funicular to station.

8.7

A wonderful hotel with a beautiful terrace. The staff here was very courteous and helpful with all of our needs. I hope to stay here again someday.

7.9

Great hotel, quiet, friendly staff in a fabulous location. I'd definately go back.

9.7

Quiet, well-maintained room with modern facililties. Good location. Pleasant staff, although English limited.

8.1

Breakfast was okay, location was very good. Take the trolley up the hill from the train station instead of the taxi, save E12. Recommend this place, would return here.

7.9

We loved this little hotel. It was clean and nice, great location and very quiet. I would definately stay there again. The only thing I would point out is the quality of service at check in. We came at a very slow time and could have used some assistance in finding open restaurants, maps etc... Wewere not given check out time and other info. (but found it on a sign in the elevator). We also noticed that the price of the hotel (listed by law on the back of the room door)was actually quite a bit cheaper than was listed on Venere. I highly recommend this quaint hotel, they just need to provide more information upon check in.

8.9

Very nice room and friendly staff. We arrived by car and given all the one-way streets, could have used better signs indicating the direction to take to the hotel. Our navigator did not have enough information to get us to the hotel and we hadn't checked the web site for directions. However, this was solved by the friendly police who led us to the hotel when we asked them how to get there. The staff provided clear directions to the car park after dropping off our luggage and it was a short walk to the car when we checked out.

5.5

The room we got was large and clean. The location was certainly good. We stayed there on november 12 and unfortunately the individual at the front desk was very unhelpful and borderline rude. He was unpleasant at check in, supposedly knew little english, when asked recommended a cafe he must have known was closed, told us breakfast was not available when it should have been and there was plenty of food in plain sight, and then tried to charge us for it at check out when it was included. I would not stay here again knowing he is at the desk but might otherwise.

3.9

We were very disappointed with this hotel. Nobody spoke much english. I asked if they had a safe deposit box at the desk. The receptionist said the afternoon woman could help me with that. She didn't speak a word of english and no idea what I was talking about. THe room was definitely the smallest room I had stayed in on the entire trip. The breakfast was fair. They had some cheese wrapped in individual papers. It was so warm that I think it was probably put out the night before. We talked to another guest who was alone and she also complained about the small room she was in. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

7.6

Our first trip to Orvieto and the hotel was quite good. It was on the main street between the town center and the shuttle stops from the train station. Not far to walk. Staff was friendly and put up with my basic Italian. I would stay here again.

10

This is a superbe hotel and it is close to the finicular that takes one to the train stations. The owner and her assistants were great and the breakfast more than adequate. The area is quiet, but still on the main roadway leading to the Duomo. I have always liked Orvieto, and the Hotel Corso made the trip just perfect.

9.1

My stay at the hotel corso was rather pleasant. the price was reasonable for it being July. the room was clean, the mini bar fully stocked, and the hotel is situated in close proximity of everything. I would stay again at Hotel Corso.

0.5

No parking near hotel. Used public parking lot where one had to find a certain designated space for overnight parking. Man at reception spoke NO English. He was rude and hostile about any requests such as helping us turn on A/C to giving us clean linens. Other guests we met had the same experience. Overall unkempt rooms, dusty air filters and curtains.

10

Hotel Corso was a good place to stay in Orvieto. Rooms were very nice and breakfast was good. We wished we had planned to stay more than one night as Orvieto was one of our favorite hill towns.

9.2

This was a charming hotel and a charming room We could swing open the shutters to look down at the street below. The location in the town was superb. We could easily walk everywhere. I highly recommend it.

8.5

Hotel Corso is a small and very well situated property on the main thoroughfare in Orvieto. We found the rooms small with no comfortable place to sit other than on the bed (which was a kingsize made up of two twins). However, the room was immaculate, the room service very good, and the staff most cordial and helpful. The continental breakfast was included in the bill of 100 Euros per night. It's a great location, quiet neighborhood, and is only a four minute walk to the finicularo that takes you right to the train station. We would stay there again.

9.3

We had a pleasant stay. The desk staff speak English well. Fresh items for the breakfast, and a real cappuccino made just for us! We were delighted to find the Hotel Corso met and exceeded our expectations based on the website.

9.4

My wife and I spent two days in Orvieto and found the Hotel Corso to be just right. The room was quiet, breakfast buffet was good, and welcome was competent and polite. We were told where to park free for our stay. The location was very convenient to the sights and also to two very nice restaurants where we had dinners. Our stay was a good finish to two weeks in and around Italy.

9.1

This was a delightful place to stay. The location was most convenient, as it was close to the furnicular, and restaurants, and was very quiet. Obviously recently refurbished, the decore was very tasteful. The staff were efficient, but lacked the warm welcome. Would definitely recommend to friends, and would definitely stay here again on a future visit.

8.7

Corso it a very Italian style 3 star hotel. Our room had a nice size bathroom, a tiny patio of our room, and a big patio across the hall. The staff were extremely helpful, especially as to where to park the car, which was a free parking lot. Location was excellent for touring the city. Would return there for a second visit.

7.4

You urgently need a better description of the way to the hotel ,because the entrance to the Corso Cavour is hidden behind the bus terminal . We came by car after sunset and had to seek for an hour .

9.0

Great little hotel for the money! One of the best values we had on trip. Room was small but had nice new bath, was redone with new marble floors, paint etc., bed was great with very nice linens. Helpful staff with great in-town lcation and nice full breakfast. Hard to beat!

8.5

Beautiful hotel in a terrific location. I'd stay again!

10

This was a very beautiful hotel for a great price right in the heart of Orvieto. The staff are extremely friendly, and the rooms are beautiful and have character.

8.1

Perfect for business but even better if you want to see fascinating Orvieto without being too close to the Duomo therefore you are in a quiter part of the historical centre.

8.7

I had a very pleasant stay at Hotel Corso. The location is convenient to all of the sights in Orvieto and close to the train station and the Public Transport hub. The price is very good value. I would stay there again.

sehr gutes Hotel

9.8

This was a great hotel. It was close to restaurants and the sights. It was also easy to walk to from the furnicular with your bags. The bathroom was a good size and it had shower screen doors instead of a shower curtain. The bed was a very comfortable queen size and the bedroom was spacious compared to other places we stayed at later. The breakfast was good - it didn't just offer cereal and breadrolls. They allowed us to use their internet to check on our email for free whereas at other hotels we had to pay for this service. They had a lift which saved you lugging your bags up flights of stairs which we had to do in a lot of other hotels.

9.3

The hotel was very easy to find, a short walk from the funicular, and central to the sights around town. The hotel staff was pleasant, and we were very happy with our room--simple, spacious and clean. Our windows looked down onto Cavour, but the noise during the night was minimal. The breakfast was fine. We felt like we got good quality for the money and would stay there again.

8.6

A great first hotel to stay at after Rome.Staff competent and helpful.A room overlooking the street however is inclined to be noisy especially on weekends. A clean hotel.

9.2

Great location, helpful staff

9.0

The Corso Hotel is ideally situated for those travelling by train. An interesting ride in the funicular railway which runs frequently and a short walk which was easy with a suitcase on wheels. The hotel is only a short walk from the centre of town and provides good accommodation and a breakfast with plenty of choice. I very much enjoyed my stay.

7.9

Hotel Corso was charming and comfortable. The staff was courteous and helpful. It was an enjoyable place to stay.

9.6

HOTEL CORSO WAS VERY ADEQUATE - YOUR AVERAGE MID-RANGE EUROPEAN HOTEL. CLEAN ROOMS, COMMON AREAS A BIT DATED. STAFF WAS VERY HELPFUL AND THE CENTRAL LOCATION WAS A BIG PLUS.

9.1

Excellent hotel, very clean and the rooms were spacious!

9.8

We stopped at Orvieto on the way to Rome and were unaware of what a magnificent old walled city it was. The Corso Hotel is a fabulous old hotel located in the heart of the city. We only wished we could have extended our stay and will definitely return the the hotel when we next visit Italy.

9.9

Clean, friendly, comfortable with a wonderful location. We would stay here again.

9.3

Hotel was great - nice location, good service. Breakfast was average, except for nice pastries! We enjoyed ourselves immensely! Nice job.

9.9

Hotel Corso was one of my husband's FAVORITES. It is a very small hotel just as was mentioned when we booked it. It was in the middle of the walled town Orvieto and it was a great find for the money. The only drawback was the breakfast...it was not very good but the Hotel was very nice.

6.6

Clean and welcoming hotel conveniently situated in the centre of Orvieto. Rooms on the small side, bathrooms tiny. Air conditioning was definitely struggling (did not really work at all in one room - for which we received a measly 8 euro discount). Also, the airconditioning to all rooms was switched off before checkout time, which left us sweltering as we struggled to pack - very annoying. Photos on website gave the impression of somewhere slightly grander. We thought this hotel was basically OK for one night, but on the pricey side for what we got. We would not have stayed for a longer period.

8.2

Coming from the USA, we thought the hotel was located in Assisi because that is how you have it listed. In fact, the hotel was located about 5 km from Assisi and it was necessary for us to travel back and forth to do our touring of Assisi. The hotel was lovely and we enjoyed out stay, but would not do so again because it was not located where we thought it to be.

9.8

I would go back again in a minute, and I would definitely recommend this hotel. It was one of my favorites on the trip.

10

Wonderful town and hotel. Rooms seemed new.

5.3

The fact that nobody in the hotel spoke much English was a problem. The hotel had no suggestions regarding things we should see in Orvieto, in fact they gave us very poor directions when we asked for any assistance. Breakfasts were not very good.

8.1

I was there 2 times within about 13 days. This first room was wonderful. The second not so clean and quiet. Ask for rooms toward the funicular.

9.3

The room is clean and bright. Interior design was also good and it's a very beautiful room. It is located in shopping quarter, and is convenient, and a view is also good. Room charge was 59 euros,when I stayed there. It is a hotel that I want to stay once more.

9.5

A very nice place to stay, courteous staff and a perfect location. Will go there again and again.
