I`ve stayed at Vicus Major just for 1 night and all I can say is : It`s a great place , recently renovated, with friendly staff and great service. It`s a little bit outside of Arezzo, but it takes 5min by car to get to the city center. The hotel has a big free parking zone and a free wi... More

We're struggling to understand the enthusiasm of other reviewers and why it's so high on the list of recommendations. The hotel is modern and functional, our room was bright, fairly spacious and clean and the bed large and comfortable. The staff, as has been commented, were very pleasant and helpful and the price was reasonable. That's fine but it's as... More

As the title said ~ an incredibly friendly hotel ! We stayed here late April '12 while touring Unbria and Tuscany bay car and its ideal for that kind of thing. If visiting Arezzo theres a huge free car park to the north of the old town with an escallator up so staying out of towns not a problem if... More

We picked this hotel after reading the other reviews on Tripadvisor and must say it was a good choice; the hotel had been recently renovated and the room looked quite nice. On the downside the hotel lies a little bit in the outskirts of Arezzo so it's ideal if you have a car, I'm not sure whether there is a... More

Nice, clean, sparkling new, friendly place by the Highway near Arezzo. Trade off proximity for quality at an unbeatable price. Staff made up for a just failed elevator with help in carrying luggage and a room in a low floor. Breakfast coulkd have been a little better though.

Pleasantly surprised by this hotel, did not expect much for the cost. The family running this hotel is beyond nice and attentive. The rooms were impecably clean and new, while the breakfast was average good (European Style...) A perfect night stop over with a night walk in Arezzo (about a 10 minute drive to downtown). Free parking too... We were... More

If you're visiting the town of Arezzo, you must stay at Hotel Vicus Major. Just minutes from the historic town (birthplace of the poet Petrarch and the artists Vasari and Cimabue), this hotel is excellent. The staff is utterly professional, and the breakfast offers freshly-baked pastries along with juices, meats, and coffee. Stay here and you will not be disappointed!... More

My first time choosing Vicus Major at this area. The hotel seems to be rather new. I was nosey whether the good online recommendations are applicable. I can confirm all positive comments.

The room is small but very clean and lovely. The owners are really friendly and helpful. Very close to the highway and so convenient for short day trips in Tuscany. Immediate surroundings rather boring and this hotel is not an option unless you're driving. WiFi costs 1 euro for the entire stay.

Stayed here for 2 days. We thought it was closer to Arezzo than it was, though it is quite okay if you don't want a 5 star palace. Price very reasonable. The room was okay, quite new, though a bit sparse and the bathroom was a bit small (especially the shower). Yet it worked well. Breakfast was okay - a... More
