You have to experience Misia Resort. The tiny village of Rocco Ripesena is cut out of the rock hillside just a few kilometers outside of Orvieto. Disguised inside the old walls of that little village, is an upscale, even high tech respite. From the outside, our room looked 400 years old. Inside it was as nice a room as we... More

We arrived at Misia by car from the Rome airport, and though we were tired from our overnight flight we were immediately energized by the beauty of our surroundings and the warm welcome from Giorgio who came right out to our car, took our luggage, parked the car for us, and offered us wine and snacks. Misia is a beautiful... More

Misia is a lovely resort. The owners were as helpful as I have experienced anywhere. We got there midafternoon having skipped lunch and one of the owners made us sandwiches so we wouldn't have to go find something. So nice! The room was luxurious with beautiful views in the area.

After traveling through London, Paris, Madrid and Rome our final stop at the Misia Resort was like being embraced by the country of Italy. First of all, when you arrive you are not expected to check in at the front desk- as you park your car you are warmly greeted in person by Giorgio who knows you by name. He... More

We traveled to Orvieto by train. From the other reviews, I couldn't determine how difficult it would be to get to Misia without a car but the pictures of the inn were so nice, we decided to give it a try. As it turned out, the hotel is a quite bit further than I expected and there is no public... More

Giorgio was a wonderful host and always willing to go out of his way to accommodate us. Our room was very cozy and intimate. The area around the property is very peaceful and provides a great retreat. Climb the rock at sunrise/sunset for the most picturesque views of Orvieto. Drink espresso (especially from Giorgios espresso maker) and drink even more... More

We had a bit of a hard time finding the Misia, as our GPS led us astray. But, we were delighted when we arrived. The owners had gone out of their way to make sure a room was available early so we could store our luggage before going into Orvieto for lunch. We were four people traveling with a huge... More

Can't say enough good things about the Misia Resort. It is located about 12 minutes from Orvietto and up a winding road. It is part of a small 'town' with a beautiful view of Orvietto. So relaxing to return to after a day of site seeing. The room was spacious and nicely decorated. The breakfast buffet was fresh and plentiful.... More

My husband and I had a trip through Florence/Chianti/Orvieto/Rome planned through a travel agent. When the reservation with the Orvieto destination fell through, we were rebooked at Misia Resort and it turned out to be the highlight of our vacation! After a challenging experience finding our way to the resort right beneath the beautiful Rocca Ripesena (directions could be improved),... More
