We spent 4 nights in the B&B Dolce Maria, in Cortona, Tuscany. Arrived from Florence by train at the Camucia-Cortona station. We were almost caught out by the short platform and long train, being in the last carriage meant having to jump on to the platform with our suitcases! Having avoided disaster there, we walked straight out to find the... More

The B&B Dolce Maria is the perfect place to stay in Cortona. Paola is a sweetheart and is very helpful. The B&B is just beautiful. . My room had a spiral staircase that went up to the roof...beautiful views! The rooms were clean, well taken care of, and truly Italian (the B&B is a restored palazzo). Paola's restaurant is excellent.... More

We had originally arranged to stay in another B and B in Cortona through booking.com. We got an email that the original hotel could not accommodate us for some reason so we were told that Dolce Maria had a room and would happily take us. Of course, we were hesitant as Dolce Maria had not been our first choice but... More

My wife loves the movie "Under the Tuscan Sun" so off to Cortona for Christmas. We couldn't have found a better place to stay. Family run we enjoyed meeting the grandmother who supervised the breakfast, Paola who replaced the vacationing chef ( and also the hostess for the B&B) and the father who sat us for dinner in their excellent...

The B&B Dolce Maria is the perfect place to stay in Cortona. Paola is a sweetheart and is very helpful. The B&B is just beautiful. The website pictures do not do it justice. I traveled to Cortona with my sister, and Paola gave us adjoining rooms which would be perfect for a family. My room had a spiral staircase that... More

We throughly enjoyed our stay at the Dolce Maria in Cortona. Our room was on the top floor with a steep staircase leading to the patio on the roof, which offered a spectacular view beyond the walls for miles. The room was large with a very comfortable king bed, and a bathroom that was very clean, newly tiled, and with... More

The innkeeper Paola, was extremely accommodating, good english skills. The B&B room I stayed in was roomy by Italian hotel standards and the food was simple but good. The location was close to the main Piazza but far enough away so there was no noise. Highly recommend it. More

If having a sparkling clean room is as important to you as it is to me, this is your place. Amenities abound-crisply ironed white sheets, fluffy bath sheets, along with bedspreads you are not afraid to lie on, they are so clean. Add to this the gracious welcome awaiting you from Paola and her family, the fabulous Tuscan food served... More

We chose to stay at Dolce Maria because of its Trip Advisor reviews and also because we wanted to stay in Cortona itself instead of in the surrounding countryside. We weren't quite certain we had the right place at first, as the sign for the restaurant (which has a different name, Locanda al Pozzo Antico), is more prominent than the... More
