    Fantastic venue renovated to a high standard in a beautiful location. This far exceeded our expectation as we have stayed in a convent before. Quiet and relaxing. Amazing breakfast choice.

    The shower area was a little bit cramped, but what can you do in situations when you're in such a historical beautiful building.

    The accommodation place is really beautiful and the room is very comfortable. However, one thing that they don't mention is just how breathtaking their view is from the garden. WOW WOW WOW!!! We had no idea that this region was going to be so spectacularly beautiful and wish that we had stayed longer for hiking but it just means we have to come back.

    All good

    When I travel, the two most important things for me are cleanliness and the bed. This hotel is impeccably clean and the bed is super comfortable! And it’s sooo quiet. Tea room was appreciated.

    Our one night stay in this convent was absolutely what we were looking for. The convent is in a totally green area and only quietness rains. Perfect for those looking to relax and meditate. They also organize out of season yoga retreats. Rooms are very clean and staff cordial and professional. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for relaxation

    The gardens were not maintained, which was disappointing.

    The staff, especially Luisa and Maria were gracious and conscientious and made us feel very welcome. The food, especially the dinner, was outstanding, especially remarkable given the small staff! The convent building is peaceful and the local art work is nice. Beautiful views and sunsets!

    The convento di san colombo is a beautiful hotel where you can find quietness, a lovely room and a beautiful outside space with a beautiful view. Overall the perfect environment to relax. The hotel restaurant is highly recommended, reasonably priced and also offers vegetarian options. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Also they were extremely helpful when we had troubles with our car as they managed the communication in italian for us. They even went ahead and organized a place for us where we got the car fixed easily and fast.

    The grounds were dissapointing but I understand that the National Park is responsible for some of it's maintenance.

    Accommodation was clean. Room was a good size and very peaceful. The staff were all friendly and helpful. We ordered aperitivi which were served in the courtyard. Lovely glass of wine and homemade tasty nibbles. Dinner was excellent with a good food and wine selection. Breakfast was equally good.

    Location is just above the village and not too far from the Campo Imperatore from where you can make wonderful hikes. We took inclusive dinner and dinner was exactly as it should be, fresh, tasteful and good portions. The place is very calm and away from busy streets. Also close by are the wonderful places Santo Stefano di Sessanio, Calascio and Castel del Monte. certainly a good spot to explore Campo and south of it.

    We sometimes found it hard to track people down - we were told we could have coffee in the courtyard, but weren't given any times this was available and we never managed to find someone to make that happen, and didn't see anyone else having one either. We had to wait a short time at dinner for someone to appear, and the same on checking in. As per previous reviews the rooms can echo. It was quiet all night but once breakfast movement started it was quite noisy, but I think you have to accept that for the authenticity of the building.

    Stunning location - the views from the terrace took our breath away and we could have looked at them for hours. Our room was much bigger than we had imagined (we had a mezzanine) and we loved how 'authentic' the building still seemed. Dinner and breakfast were very tasty and we liked the seating areas around the grounds. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

    The Convento is in a marvelous, quiet and lovely location with a superb view of the mountains. They have an excellent restaurant and a delicious and varied breakfast. There is a garden to stroll in to enjoy the mountains, the mediterranean plants and flowers, and to sit quietly with a book. It is a very peaceful place to start your vacation or to recover from the rigors of a trip to Rome.
