The building and location were fantastic and a lot of thought and attention to detail have gone into both the room and shared spaces which were gorgeous. We also ate dinner in the restaurant and this was delicious using lots of local produce (just be aware the restaurant is not open every night). The property is around 5 mins from a main road so easy to get access to some of the main sites in the area, but still very peaceful.

On our second night the restaurant was closed and there is no where else to walk to for dinner so needed to get in the car, but this means you explore the area a little more.

This is our favorite place when staying in Umbria and we have been staying there several times now. We had all different kinds of rooms and everyone was beautifully furnished and spacious. All rooms are quiet, as the Marmotta is situated in the middle of green fields but not more than 15min drive from Spoleto center. The breakfast and restaurant area is very nice and the selection good including the meal options at lunch/dinner. The honesty bar is a good and fair choice for having drinks in the evening. The pool area and garden are the highlights of this place. Very well maintained, always clean and enough space. We will always keep coming back to this beautiful place!

Sometimes sunbeds are reserved by guests without anyone showing up in the end. Otherwise everything perfect!

Breakfasts were lovely and included in the room rate. Restaurant is excellent for carnivores, less so for vegetarians. Swimming pool is big in a lovely setting, with lots of loungers & chairs. Farmhouse itself is beautiful and peaceful, with a lot of different spaces places to sit outside throughout the grounds, and a couple of big rooms to relax in indoors. Our apartment was BIG, cool and a great place to sit in, or eat in, on the days we didn't want to go out somewhere. The location is excellent for day trips by car to Assisi, Perugia, Orvieto, Trevi, Speleto.... there is far more to see and do than you'll get to. Assuming you don't just want to sunbathe by the pool, drinking lovely wine.

Beds were a little too firm for our tastes, but that's a personal thing. Bar is run as an honesty bar (so self-serve) which is great, except that when it runs out of glasses, mugs or tumblers... you're out of luck! Restaurant has a pretty limited selection for non-meat eaters, but that's not actually unusual in Umbria it seems. Late summer there are a lot of flying things! Mosquitos were a nemesis, and there's a few wasps & hornets around the farmland. Nothing unusual, but something to bear in mind if you are upset by them.

Wow! What a place tucked in on the Saint Francis Way hiking path in the Village of Poreta, Borga Della Marmotta was the type of oasis on hopes for at the end of a long day of hiking. Beautiful property, modern rooms, a truly outstanding restaurant with Frederico and his friendly, happy staff making the one night's stay having us wishing we could have stayed for longer. Consensus of the group was that Borga Della Marmotta was the type of property that one might return to just to enjoy the ambience of the property and area as a one off vacation.

A little oasis in the quaint town of Poreta. The beauty of the property is not captured in the photos. Olive trees, lavender bushes and a tranquil outdoor pool add to the specialness of this hotel. Lots of outdoor seating available to just read a book and enjoy the scenery. From the moment we arrived we felt welcomed by the staff. Our room was spacious, clean and well decorated. Our buffet breakfast was the best we've had during our month long travels through Italy. As we happened to stay on a Tuesday when the hotel's restaurant was closed, our host was kind enough to not only book dinner reservations at a nearby establishment but coordinate transportation as well. They definitely go above and beyond to assure that their guests have an amazing experience.

Beautuful, tranquil hotel with well designed rooms that are definitely more on the luxe side for Italy. Great food for lunch and dinner meaning you can stay all day if preferred. Lovely hospitality!

Air conditioning in the room needs updating as it wasn't quite sufficient for the high temperatures during our stay. Our double bed was two singles pushed together which isn't super comfortable

This hotel is honestly my top 1, it is the BEST hotel I have ever stayed at. It is incredibly beautiful, relaxing, and detail oriented. Our room was stunning, perfect size, the pool is beautiful and so calm. The breakfast was delicious, the coffee was next level (and the offer plant-based options) Also, the parking is covered with solar panels, and they offer EV charging stations. I have nothing but praise for this place.

There is nothing I could think of that we didn't like. The only thing I could say, is I wish we would have stayed longer, and not just one night.

The breakfast was wonderful with lots of variety offered. The restaurant was good and beautifully lit at night (I have the same lamps) and a lovely fresh lunch was on offer if pre-booked. My room was spacious and cool with an outlook into the garden and a gazebo to sit in. I liked the honesty bar in the lounge and the offer of free Nespresso coffee too and excellent WiFi everywhere. All the staff were pleasant and friendly and we felt thoroughly 'at home' in our corner of Umbria. Will definitely book again.

Diana Krall in the restaurant was lovely to listen to but not again and again. This is a very small point in a list of many many wonderful experiences.

The location is set in a quiet little hamlet, the perfect spot for a bit of tranquility and serenity. The grounds are well maintained and something straight out of a storybook novel. But what made the place special was that the staff went above and beyond to accomodate to your every request and need. From booking cars for you if you needed one to finding horse back riding centres and calling every provider in the area to make sure you had a great time. Spent a week here and there was such a warmth from the people and the place itself. Highly recommend.

If you don't have a car, the location is a bit remote. But nothing a few taxis can't fix

We were walking on the St Francis way and were hot and tired on arrival into the tiny village of Poreta. We were amazed at the quiet luxury, beautiful relaxing setting of the converted farm buildings set in wonderful gardens with a lovely pool - it was a very welcome sight. The restaurant is excellent and set in the gardens overlooking the pool. We enjoyed a light lunch (needs to be booked in advance as a local chef comes in and only prepares lunch for those who require it, it's not a drop in), In the evening we had a fantastic three course dinner on the candlelit terrace and then a fabulous breakfast with homemade cakes and bread. The staff were lovely and couldn't do enough for us. We really wished we'd stayed longer.
