Hotel Virgilio

Location was perfect and staff were welcoming and friendly with lots of suggestions about locations to visit. We loved our room overlooking the Duomo lots of activity to watch but also very quiet at night.

Breakfast was fine, my only request would be for a proper coffee machine rather than the American coffee but that is only a comment.

The hotel is located in the best position in Orvieto - right in Piazza Duomo and our room looked out over the Piazza and directly at the side/front of the Duomo. The rooms are basic but great value for money. Breakfast is simple but fresh. The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful.

Finding the parking if you’re travelling by car is relatively simple but negotiating the paid parking set-up for long stays (with discount for being a hotel guest) was challenging with one of the parking kiosk attendants. Not so much a language barrier - more a intellectual challenge. However we went back a third time & spoke to a different attendant and got it sorted.

The close proximity to the Duomo and being able to drive up to drop off our bags was a plus. Parking was easy as well. Staff was very welcoming and helpful. Amazing views of the Duomo and the heavy windows kept unwanted nighttime sounds out so we slept well. Breakfast was delicious and the selection of foods was very good, Loved having a drink right at the front of the hotel which is only reserved for guests.

Our bathroom was a bit tight but overall was functional.

The hotel is in the duomo piazza and has a comfortable sitting area in front of the hotel. One night I sat there for nearly an hour - a quiet & peaceful hour staring at the. magnificent cathedral.

Fluffier pillows would be nice
