Beautiful views of the city. Quiet neighborhood without crowded streets. Professional, helpful staff. Gorgeous facilities (hotel, pool). Free shuttle to the old city.
United States of AmericaWe absolutely loved the Villa Cora - exquisite and beautiful building, furnishings and setting. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable - very helpful. The breakfast buffet was wonderful- fantastic array of Tuscan treats. We can’t wait to come back again.
United States of AmericaVilla Cora is truly exceptional for so many reasons, but especially the attention to detail, the stunning surroundings, and the immaculate facilities. The staff are friendly (jovial even) and showed us the most amazing hospitality.
