Osteria Borgo Syrah In Cortona

03/01/2026: We stumbled upon this place for a "frugal" lunch... despite it being so close to closing time, they prepared a room for us (11 people). We ate excellent appetizers and first courses, and, above all, they treated us with such courtesy and professionalism. Thank you.

14/12/2025: I stayed for two nights and ate in once. About the food: Everything was delicious, just as expected. We had two types of wine by the glass. I was recommended a local Syrah and a Cabernet Sauvignon. They were tasty, but a little below my expectations. I wish they had included some regional varieties among the recommendations. About the accommodation: Breakfast was bread and coffee at a bar about a three-minute walk away. It wasn't a bad experience to mingle with locals, but the information about this type of breakfast wasn't included in the reservation information. On the second day, I went out in the morning and returned to my room in the afternoon, only to find that it hadn't been cleaned yet. I wanted to rest in my room, so I only asked for my towels to be changed and the trash to be taken care of. My used towels were kicked across the floor as they left the room. I wonder if the floor was really that clean, or if our towels were that dirty... When I went downstairs from my room to check out, there was no one there. There was a sign on the wall that said, "Please call this number when you check out." However, as we are travelers without a phone number (using e-sim), there was nothing we could do. When the scheduled departure time came, the taxi we had booked arrived, and we had the driver make a call, and were finally able to check out. It would have been nice if there had been a sufficient explanation beforehand. As there is no dedicated accommodation staff member, this aspect was overlooked, and as a result, the functionality of the accommodation is weak. For first-time guests, it was a very confusing accommodation. As an old woman, I thought it would be a good idea to make WhatsApp available.
