A Great Hotel Ideally Located
The San Luca is a great hotel. Rooms are small, but hey it's Europe. Breakfast was fantastic with a gorgegous view. The hotel is ideally located at the entrance to the old city and it is wonderful in the evening after the day-tourist have left, you have the city to yourself. Very convenient for walking around Cortona. The staff was excellent with most speaking passable english. The front desk was extremely helpful in providing directions to local highlights, such as Frances Mayes' Villa (Under the Tuscan Sun). Parking is not as big a problem as it seems if you are willing to walk a couple of hundred meters. I highly recommend the San Luca.
