We were excited to stay here given it was a castle. It did not disappoint! The grounds were very nice and the place has been kept up. The room was quite spacious - we had a ‘superior double room’ but it could have been decorated nicer given the atmosphere. The bed seemed small in the room. The bathroom was quite large and nice.

Despite the description stating that the castle had a restaurant, it was not operating. The staff were helpful in finding a restaurant that was opened and had availability for us to eat dinner. They do offer a bar and light snacks (a little on the pricey side).

Beautiful property! Small winding roads lead to this magnificent castle set on the outskirts of Orvieto. Approximately 9 min drive to town, this establishment features a pool, complimentary breakfast and a full service bar on site. Rooms are slightly dated, but that only adds to the 12th century charm. Tall people beware of the vaulted ceilings.

Stunning in all ways. The former monastery is magnificent, as is the view of Orvieto and it’s surrounding vistas. I wish our room had looked out over more than the parking side, but the greenery made it seem otherwise. The staff were friendly and the service excellent. The breakfast table was well laid out with an amazing variety of cakes and local pastries, crusty bread, as well as fruit, cheese and cold cuts. Scrambled eggs and bacon are served in warning bins. The restaurant is a fine dining establishment, with excellent food. Everything about the hotel was impressive; however I must mention that, occasionally, there was a sewage smell in our bathroom and the hot/cold water was unpredictable in its settings; often scalding. I think it may have had to do with the fixture, as there was always plenty of it. That shared, we’d nonetheless stay there again.

Unique building, great breakfast!

We stayed for one night and it was really nice. We chose this hotel because of the location near Orvieto, the free parking and the breakfast and it lived up to expectations! The building is so unique and really cool how they transformed the old building into a modern hotel. The room is really spacious, we even had a couch! When we arrived, our room was really nice and cool, it felt like there was AC. However, the longer we spent in the room, it felt more and more like the AC wasn't working. Not sure what was going on but we couldn't get it to blow anything except hot air...that made for a bit of an uncomfortable sleep, it got quite hot in the room.

Other than that, the bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The shower was nice, but because of where the shower head was placed, it made for a bit of a tight shower if you want to keep the water from going all over the bathroom floor.

The crowning glory of this hotel is definitely their breakfast! They have cheeses, cold cuts, cereal, yogurt, fruit, pastries, eggs, bacon, juices, etc. It was great!

The buildings and grounds are very beautiful and unique, but other features were disappointing. With one exception (the gentleman who handled service in the bar/outdoor patio in the afternoon), the staff were unfriendly and unhelpful. Dinner in the dining room was poorly prepared, over-priced and service was slow because they were understaffed. Poor amenities in the room - a random few tea bags, no info re mini bar prices (the contents of which appeared to have been there for a decade) and only tiny shampoo bottles in bathroom - no conditioner or shower gel. Overall, poor management of a stunning location.

This was totally like a \"real\" Castle stay but in an Abbey. We had been to many of the Castles/Castle Hotels in other countries prior to getting to Italy. This one actually felt like you were staying in the Castle due to it's story and the age of the structure. They did a great job in restoration.
There was a large wedding going on and it was really nice. We ate in the bar area as we did not have dinner reservations. The breakfast is good.
The local town of Orvieto is beautiful, you need to spend at least half a day there. If I was planning a wedding in Italy, this venue would be top on my list! We will return again to stay someday. A great experience.

Stately hotel

Tommasso gave us a warm welcome upon our arrival. He spoke beautiful English and was able to answer all of our questions. The hotel is a restored monastery. It is stately, and the grounds are beautiful. There is understandably no elevator (given its age), but the stairs were easily navigable. We arrived late and had a very good dinner. Be aware, if you’re hungry after a long day of traveling, the portions are smaller than the norm we encountered elsewhere in Italy. The room was clean and the shower good. The bed was very comfortable. One little glitch: our room was above the parking area in the front of the hotel and someone’s car alarm went off at around 3 AM! Not a big deal. It woke us up but we both went right back to sleep! Breakfast the next morning was standard buffet fare: good coffee, juices, fruit, yogurt, cereal, sweet rolls, etc. We drove to the parking lot at the foot of the escalators and took the escalators up into the town. It is possible to drive up, but we weren’t sure how easy it would be to find parking, and there is an extensive ZTL restricted driving Zone. Tommasso will tell you how to get there!

Amazing Castle/Abbey

This place really is amazing. 11th century frescoes. Absolutely stunning. We stayed in a very spacious suite with views of Orvieto. Just a couple of issues. First, not much staff, but the staff that were there were great and very helpful. This may just be a seasonal thing, as we were there in late November. Second, and maybe related, we got there later than expected anticipating eating in, but the highly regarded restaurant was closed. We were told that the chef had the night off, which is a bit odd. We had the sense that this was probably a seasonal thing again. They managed to pull off a really good restaurant, with eggs. In any event, we (my wife, my 8 yo daughter and I) would really love to stay here again. Possibly even host an event there.

Spectacular

We have traveled extensively and this was one of our all time favorites. The rooms are rather simple but the facility is stunning. A 700 year old monestary which has been converted into an impressive boutique lodging and restaurant. The service and food were excellent. A short drive to the beautiful medieval city of Orvieto. Couldn’t have asked for a more enjoyable two days in Umbria.

More like a 3 star than a 4 star

The staff was friendly and the breakfast was really good.
The room was fine for Italian standards and I chose the lower cost room. The
pool area was not so maintained and the water in the pool had a lot of trash floating in it. Path to the pool was a bit rustic.

I felt the hotel was a bit tired, we were likely one of two rooms being rented during this night.

Beautiful castle in the countryside within walking

We loved the stay and walk to the walled city of Orvietto.

step back in time

The abbey is restored for modern comfort, but maintains all of the character of the 12 century structure. It was simply amazing to be able to spend a night in such a historic monument. Just outside of the walls of Orvieto. Getting into the city was easy with convenient parking. Having a car to visit this hotel is the best way to travel here. If you are going by train, it could be done as well, but less convenient.

Unfulfilled expectations

Hotel is shabby and in desperate need of upgrading. The bed was extremely uncomfortable and had bed bugs. The hotel restaurant was passable but not up to expectations. It's too bad the hotel is so poorly maintained as it is a lovely historical site, has a beautiful view and is close to the centre of Orvieto.

Pretty castle hotel

La Badia is a beautiful castle hotel just outside the walls of Orvieto. The property is amazing and the onsite restaurant is excellent. The room itself was average, but worth the price to stay in an historic property.

Historic

Very quite restful place surrounded by history. Away from the city and not crowded by tourist. The site itself holds a lot history and interest.

A beautiful and history-filled 50th Anniversary

Very good to excellent dinner..Certainly not expensive, as others have criticized in their reviews. The staff was knowledgeable and very helpful.

Close to Orvieto by car.

Ancient ruins turned into a modern luxury hotel - renovations were outstanding. Stay here for an unusual and unforgettable experience.

Fascinating place to stay, but our room was shabby

The ancient abbey that has been converted into La Badia is awe-inspiring and provides the backdrop for a lovely and unique hotel experience. The staff were excellent, friendly and helpful, and the restaurant food was outstanding. Unfortunately our room was a big disappointment. It appeared to have been last redecorated in the 1980s, cheaply and in a style that was not particularly sympathetic to the grand old structure. Our room was uncomfortable and slightly depressing. We understand that some of the rooms have been updated more recently. This renovation program should be accelerated.

The setting of the property is serene, but the location was too far from the town of Orvieto for our needs. If we visit Orvieto again we will look for a hotel within the town walls.

The Badia is a beautiful restored monastery, about 20 min from the center of Orvieto. The breakfast was as good as it could get with very close attention to details. Our only problem, that could be significant was the room that we got, it was not confortable, with a very small bathroom, and only one tiny window for the whole room.... it felt very austere, it was located in the attic. My advice is to double check with the receptionist the options that they can offer, because it felt like a three star hotel. The overall experience is good because of the beauty of the building and commom areas.

Beautiful setting

We had read the reviews, so very aware this hotel was out of town. Loved the location, only a 5 minute drive into town and was easy to get there by car. Most comfortable bed so far and a great selection for breakfast.

Amazing hotel located near Orvieto

This was an amazing hotel. From the moment we got there the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The facilities at the hotel were also really good, the \"hidden\" swimming pool was great, and the restaurant was fantastic. I'm running out of adjectives to describe how much I loved this place, but I am definitely going to be booking a return trip

Staying in a 12th century monastery was pretty magical. We arrived after dark so wandered around in the moonlight. Lovely. A great view of Orvieto, too.

Beautiful step back in time...

Beautiful 12th century abbey structure with modern rooms. Staff superb as is breakfast buffet. Our room had a mild dank odor, but then this is a very old place. Enjoying the quiet of the courtyard in sun or shade, after the madness of Rome, was wonderful!
