Find Romantic Hotels in Il Borgo

"Villa di Piazzano – A Culinary and Countryside Dream Come True Villa di Piazzano was the undeniable highlight of our Tuscany trip — and quite possibly the best hotel experience we’ve ever had. The property itself is stunning: a beautifully preserved historic estate set in the peaceful hills near Cortona, surrounded by gardens, vineyards, and the golden light of the Tuscan countryside. But what truly set this place apart — what made it unforgettable — was the food. We were treated to an extraordinary culinary journey: over 19 exquisite courses, each one more delicious and artfully presented than the last. Every dish felt like a masterpiece — bold in flavor, flawless in technique, and crafted with the kind of passion you’d expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant. The chef didn’t just cook — they told a story with each plate. The restaurant staff went above and beyond, especially the manager, who made us feel like honored guests every time we sat down to dine. Every detail — from wine pairings to plating — was perfect. It was, hands down, the best food we had in all of Europe. Villa di Piazzano is more than just a luxurious stay — it’s a destination for food lovers, a place where elegance, tranquility, and world-class cuisine come together in perfect harmony. We’ll remember this place — and the flavors — for the rest of our lives. For anyone seeking authentic Tuscan charm, gourmet excellence, and a truly special escape: this is it. Five stars. 10/10. A flawless experie"

"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! "

"Very conveniently located in the heart of Cortona."
