Family owned and operated, La Costa has been a very special hotel
for us over the years, and offers excellent services and amenities, in
addition to the most gorgeous views overlooking the Chiana Valley below.
All the rooms at La Costa are air-conditioned, and La Costa has just
received a coveted 4-Star rating.
The building dates backs to 1300. Today it has been given the
honor of "Historical Residence," a title given by the Tuscan region to
this historical building registered by the Belle Arti.
Each of the 11 attractive guest rooms is unique and has been
lovingly restored to its original style. In addition to the superb
standard rooms, there are five rooms with balconies and several larger
suites. All guest rooms are unique in decor and supplied with the best
amenities. Each room has a private bathroom, many with Jacuzzis.

Relax with a glass of Prosecco on the terrace and enjoy the
incomparable and breathtaking views. It is considered one of the most
beautiful panoramas in the world with a view of Cortona, home of Frances
Mayes, author of
Under the Tuscan Sun, across the Chiana Valley,
Lake Trasimeno in Umbria, the Marches, and, when days are particularly
clear, your gaze can reach the snowy peaks of the Italian Gran Sasso in
Abruzzo. Every morning, fragrant aromas drift in the window as you open
the shutters and enjoy the intoxicating country air and greet the
sun-washed landscape scented with fresh herbs from the gardens below.
You will enjoy the great care to detail that Paola and Paolo
Masini, the owners of La Costa, give to the hotel, the restaurant, and
most importantly, their guests. Under their watchful eyes, La Costa
has been transformed into one of Tuscany's finest hotels, all the while
keeping its original Tuscan style, charm, and ambiance.
