We stayed in the new building. Huge room. Comfortable bed. Walk-out patio. The hotel is a short 5-minute walk to the funicular. The breakfast is a delicious with many types of sweets. I should have paid 5 Euro extra to park our car in the hotel garage. Parked on a side street overnight, the left front fender was slightly damaged.... More

Hotel Picchio is not the fanciest hotel I have ever stayed in...rather it is small, quaint, clean and delightful. Without any set plans I ended up staying a week at the hotel, each day asking if I could have the room for just one more night as I found it so difficult to have to leave Orvieto. The owner and...

The owner of Picchio is delightful and the breakfast treats she makes are delicious. Our room and bathroom were large and the linens were the best. Wish we could have stayed longer as we only stayed one night on our way up to Siena to explore Tuscany during the Christmas holiday. I would return should I visit Orvieto, Italy again.... More

During our summer 2011 driving tour of Tuscany, my wife and I found the Hotel Picchio in Orvieto suited our needs very well. Picchio is not located on the hilltop of Orvieto like the higher visibility tourist establishments, but it is just at the bottom and frankly it was a better choice for many reasons. We flew to Rome, caught... More

We stayed here for a couple of nights and received a warm and inviting reception from the owners. Easy to visit the main town of Orvieto by the funicular but away from the hustle and bustle. The owners were very helpful and interested in helping us to enjoy our stay. Breakfast was good, the selection of home made cakes were... More

Very nice place, spacious quiet and bright rooms with a lovely host. Ideal if you have a car!!! A little way out of town but only 10 mins or so and the cable car is fun anyway. A good place to stopover outside of the walls. More

We stayed one night in Hotel Picchio. They gave us great information on visiting the hilltown, and the close proximity to the funicular made things very simple. Rooms are adequate, breakfast was good. All in all a good value! More

We stayed just one night after dropping our hire care just down the road and caught the train to Rome the next day. Chose this place because of location to station and car return, but would recommend to anyone on a budget in Orvieto. Our room was in the new building and it was clean and tidy with a little... More

We spent one night in the hotel, but we wish we could have stayed more. The hotel has a great location, very close to the Funicular. We loved the hostess, Jovana, who was exceptionally nice and welcoming. she gave us great advise about places to go, and she made the best breakfast we have had in a hotel in Italy! More

Hotel Picchio is five minutes’ walk from Orvieto Train Station -- and then a 75 meter climb at 30° plus gradient. On either side of that private road are the apartments and the rooms, on two floors. The setting is beautiful, with the road ending with the sheer cliff of Orvieto. I got my first floor room in the recently... More
