When in Orvieto...Stay here. This place was a steal and Sabrina is a delight. She makes a great…read morebreakfast, delicious cappuccino, and offers terrific advice. The view from the room we stayed in was beautiful right on the outer wall of Orvieto. If arriving by train don't feel the need to get a rental car. You can for sure get by without a car in this town. The finicular is in the same parking lot as the train station. When you do get a car, if staying in Orvieto, Sabrina offers free parking. Wish we stayed during the Umbria Jazz fest but all in all Orvieto was a terrific, laid back, safe town to be immersed in excellent food, awesome views and an easy visit. Ripa Medici is a great Bed and breakfast to stay at. One note about the beds...my husband is 6 feet and he was a bit tall for the bed. As for me, I wished I brought my own pillow. We shall return one day for sure I hope.

Couldn't have asked for a greater place to stay. Reasonably priced. Clean, spacious rooms with…read moreAMAZING views!! Comfortable beds & a nice, hot shower. Great location. Everything we needed to see was in walking distance. Sabrina was extremely helpful in navigating Orvieto & suggesting spots we shouldn't miss. She also provided a delicious breakfast for us. Fresh homemade bread, fruit, pastries, eggs & cappuccino. If we are lucky enough to make it back, we will definitely stay here again.

A nice place to have a bite to eat. They have both indoor and outdoor dining areas. So it is also a…read moregood place to people watch while dining which can be fun. Service was friendly and efficient and me and my two companions were taken care of very well. Food was good, but we all thought our dishes lacked a bit of salt. Maybe it is our American palette, but it is what it is. We skipped the appetizer because nothing on the menu appealed to us at the time, however, we noticed that they served another table a delicious looking appetizer that was not on our menus. I guess it pays to be a local. Seems foolish not to have prosciutto and melon listed if you are going to make it upon request though. I know our table definitely would have ordered that. All in all, a nice visit and we would stop in again if we were in Orvieto.

The space is very cute. We sat outside under the big tree to enjoy the weather. The food was good…read more The service wasn't the most friendly but I think that's just Italy.

BEWARE: This was the worse experience of our entire month's vacation…read more Arrived to find nobody at B& B and fortunately saw the cleaning lady leaving the facility. Got in, we were given a key and she said owner would be back next day for breakfast and to get paid. The B&B is about a mile WALK from parking lot. When we left to retrieve our luggage the exterior door had a defective lock so we were afraid to leave and risk not being able to re enter. We chose to leave instead of hauling our luggage for one mile to discover that we could not get back into the building. Our other concern was that if we went out in the evening we would not be able to get back into a poorly lite building totally isolated with nobody overseeing the facility. We attempted to call the owner but got no response. This owner is obviously desperate for money and charged us for one night stay even though we left after an hour when discovering the situation. Worst experience ever!!!!!!

The 5 star reviews of this place are correct. The owner was friendly, welcoming and made sure were…read morecomfortable and secure. He offered us a ride up the hill (but we drove--big mistake in the rain & not use to stick shift). Anyways, the room was pretty, nice accents and paintings. We got a balcony with a nice view. The room was clean, comfy, lots of windows and big bathroom. We got lots of towels, slippers and bath supplies. He also put dry chairs out for us since it rained for our breakfast on the patio. His partner brought us cappuccinos to our room. Well worth the stay and the best customer service we've experienced so far. Plus he was nice to our puppy!

I had been traveling in Tuscany and Umbria for about 3 weeks before I landed here for 3 nights. It…read morecould not have been a better choice for us! Located just outside one of the entry ways into Orvieto with stunning views over the valley, this newer B&B is an incredible value for what you get. We we had a room that would have been perfect for a family but there were only two of us. There was one room with two double beds connected to another room with a huge king bed. Simple decor but elegant at the same time. Nice big bathroom, refrigerator in the room and a really nice balcony off one of the bedrooms. The outside area is where this place really shines! The view from the very large patio with tables and some nice wicker furnishings called to us at the end of a long day exploring. We would open up a bottle of wine and just gaze at the view. A very nice breakfast including eggs, cake, sereal, cake, fruit, cake, juice, cake and coffee and an assortment of teas. And did I mention cake? Seriously, they had about 6 different cakes/pies/pastries each morning! The proprietors live here as well and they aim to please. We didn't want to leave this place and would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Don't confuse the two or else you will miss seeing a few of the 1200 underground caves that date back to 2nd century BC. My husband and I really wanted to see the tour and I found out online that there was a 6 pm tour. Online it failed to mention that it as only in Italian. Not a deal breaker for me, even though I don't speak 2 words of Italian. Low and behold the tour guide spoke English and thankfully did the entire tour in both English and Italian. There was so many interesting tid bits that it was a good thing that she spoke English for us. My husband and I were very impressed and we would recommend the tour for sure. Even though it was dark outside, the caves are well lit.
