La Gioconda Del Contadino In Orbetello

06/04/2026: I'll start by saying it's a two-star hotel, so I don't understand the negative reviews. Obviously, you shouldn't expect extra luxury. The property is dated, but it's located in a very quiet area with ample parking in front. It also has a restaurant/pizzeria. Across the street is a seafood restaurant, a bar, a pizzeria, a church, and water dispensers for refilling bottles. The hotel rooms aren't very large; they don't have a bidet, but they do have a TV and a shower (well, I'd change the showers if I were them), and some have a balcony. Breakfast is basic: croissants, a tart or two, and yogurt, but again, it's not a five-star hotel, and for the price I paid, I wasn't expecting a continental breakfast. The lady at the bar in the morning was very kind and friendly. I really enjoyed having breakfast outside because the weather permitted. Otherwise, you have to eat inside in front of the reception, with a very loud noise coming from the refrigerator. One evening we had dinner at their restaurant and had a good meal. It was very busy, so I think it's well-known in the area. In short, if your goal is to stay overnight and then go around Capalbio, Orbetello, Monte Argentario, etc., this is a nice place in a nice location.
