Palazzo Bontadosi Hotel & Spa

We just checked out of this wonderful hotel and our hearts are still full from 5 nights of pampering and luxury. This art hotel is located on the main plaza of Montefalco, within 3 minutes easy walk to some of the best restaurants in Umbria. The rooms are generously sized and look out over the lively piazza or the hills to the south. Everyone at the front desk (Sylvia, Jade, Benedetta) is professional, smiling and helpful. Breakfast is perfect with a nice assortment of meats, eggs, cheeses, fruits, yogurts, pastries etc. and great cappuccinos! The bed was super comfortable and the showers were powerful and not like some European showers where you end up really missing home. There's a glorious rain shower and a handshower, the plenty of water pressure. Our friends used the spa and soaking pool downstairs and loved it. The facilities, hallways and rooms are immaculate. We highly recommend this hotel and cannot wait to return.

Everything was great at this hotel. The front desk staff was very nice and helpful. Breakfast did not have a huge variety and mountains of food like other hotels but it had exactly the amount and variety needed - from cold cuts to cakes to bread to yogurt and fruit - and everything was fresh and of high quality. The room we had on the second floor overlooking the plaza was great (#22) which I think was a junior suite. Looking the other way would have been great as well, because the views of the countryside are very nice. We found everything inside the hotel attractive - lighting, flooring, draperies, etc. But be aware that despite the prominent photograph of a frescoed room, the hotel leans modern, with a tasteful mix of more traditional/older style. The hotel has various Michelin stickers on the front door but they are not applicable anymore, since the restaurant is no longer operating (other than for breakfast). I was told that the relationship with the chef ended and they were not aware of any plans for a new chef. This is really not a problem since the town has many fantastic restaurants everywhere. The only negative was that while there were hot options for breakfast (such as scrambled eggs) they had an extra charge. This, I thought, was very odd. I think the hotel should just offer them for free and charge everyone 5 extra euros for the room. Thus the hotel would make more money and guests would not feel that they are nickeled-and-dimed at a luxury hotel. This extra charge is definitely a marketing faux-pas, in my opinion.

The staff are excellent and the hotel is stunning. A wonderful place to celebrate our 25th Anniversary! Grazie

The Palazzo Bontadosi Hotel & Spa is set in the lovely town of Montefalco, within its walls, at the top and is the perfect homebase for exploring this beautiful part of Italy. The property is well maintained and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The restaurant within the hotel is home to a wonderful and creative chef. Don't miss an opportunity to enjoy her offerings. The rooms are very comfortable and our junior suite was spacious.
