Borgo Della Marmotta

Two nights at Borgo Della Marmotta. Vey appealing rural setting in Poreta, in close proximity to Spoleto and Spello. Great base to explore the southeast corner of Umbria. Helpful and friendly hotel staff. Lovely grounds and pool area. Communal areas and rooms on the property. Restaurant and breakfast area a short distance from accommodation. A couple of issues - the wifi in our room didn’t work ( was unable to be resolved by staff) - and as the mobile coverage was also patchy, one would have to walk around towards reception area to get any data access. The restaurant food was excellent, but apparently only changes the menu once per week - again, normally no big issue, but when we arrived, there were already three items taken off the menu, and the following night, a further two items were removed - with an already relatively limited selection, the options were limited. Lastly, there were numerous mosquitoes in the area, which meant that without window screens, windows needed to be closed - potentially ok if air conditioning functional, but alas, the hotel doesn’t turn the a/c on until summer. Sounds like a bit of a whinge, but we generally enjoyed ourselves and have favourable memories.

The most wonderful small hotel. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful. The rooms were all different and so stylish. The breakfast was outstanding with fresh cakes made every day. We had dinner once and it was lovely. The grounds were gorgeous and I would definitely return

This is a really nice hotel close to beautifyl Spoleto in Umbria. The hotel in the countryside with nice rooms and a nice swimmingpool. We had a suite - a family with one child - 16 years. The room was nice and also the bathroom. Unfortunately the A/C did not work really well so it was hot in the night. We got a fan but it was very weak and noisy. The pool is really nice with sunbeds. Unfortunately there were two dutch families with small children that were so noisy and that disturbed the calmness of the place. Shoud be a no children hotel. The breakfast was really nice and good. We had dinner one night in the restaurant and it was good.

We stayed three nights in a mix of classic and superior rooms (for price reasons). Classic is fine, but is next to a minor road so gets a little traffic but ok. Everything spotlessly clean, nice character, two big reception rooms which are v comfortable and a nice olive garden plus pool.

We had a great 3 night stay at this resort. Rooms are nicely appointed in a rustic old building. The grounds are amazing. Beautiful pool and garden area! Nice big living area in the main house. The restaurant here is great and very convenient. Close to Spoleto, Assisi, Bevagna and Spello.

Lovely spot, very relaxing. Pool needs a bit of maintenance and gardens pretty but quite weedy.

Borgo Della Marmotta absolutely wowed us and really exceeded our expectations. The whole place oozes style and class and our room/bathroom (the hotel upgraded us to superior at no extra cost) was extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean and very tastefully furnished. The red brick tiled floor was a particular triumph! All staff were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast (in the restaurant) was consistently good with lots of choice. The hotel is located in lovely Umbrian countryside and Spoleto is only a 15 minute drive away. Definitely one of the best bases we had on our tour of Tuscany and Umbria.

An absolutely fabulous stay. Beautiful place, lovely rooms, excellent food and incredibly nice and helpful staff. I can especially recommend a massage by the talented Anna-Lisa. The best massage I have ever had and such a lovely treat for a foot traveler with tired feet and sore muscles. /Karin

Beautiful Umbrian resort. Room comfortable and clean. In the restaurant we found the worst coffee we have experienced in Italy, probably not from a proper Italian coffee machine. Options for eating lunch and dinner are expensive so unless you have a car your choice is limited. Public sitting areas, pool area, gardens etc are lovely but there’s just something missing to make it 5 stars for me.
