The Hotel San Michele is a comfortable, quiet, and friendly hotel in Cortona. You are far from the crowds of over-eager tourists within the walls of your room, tastefully decorated in Renaissance-style furnishings.
The daily breakfast service, if you choose to purchase, was varied and abundant with both traditional Italian items like cornetti and crostata, as well as American/British and German-breakfast staples (like American coffee, eggs, bacon, sausage, charcuterie, and meusli).
The hotel's staff is courteous, helpful and attentive to guests. I was assisted with both tourist inquiries and with hiring a driver* to another city. (The reception desk associate even managed to snag me a decent price.)
