We spent 5 nights at the Villa Monte Solare, between Citta della Pieve and Perugia. One of the attractions of the deal was that transfers were included for the 2 hour drive to and from Rome airport, avoiding the necessity of driving in an unfamiliar hire car around the Rome motorway ring road - enough said! Exclusive (to us) taxis both ways in very comfortable vehicles - ensuring a stress-free trip at both ends of the stay.
We had eaten a memorable dinner at the Villa MS before (20 yrs ago!), and the return visit lived up to our hopes and expectations. A delightful small hotel, set in beautiful surroundings in the Umbrian hills, pleasant, very helpful staff, excellent food in the half-board deal, and a comfortable large room (we upgraded), with separate bath and shower. The hotel arranged a hire car locally for us, delivered to the door at the correct time.
A small gripe - the bumpy road into the hotel. (Not good if you are taking your own car, but many local roads were poorly surfaced!). Otherwise we had no complaints, except that one occasion (c 5.30pm) there was no-one behind the desk and we had to go hunting, via the kitchen....
The Fleetway deal was excellent value for money, given the high standard of the hotel, (we have found this on previous trips with the company), so we have no hesitation in recommending this package and Fleetway in general to other clients.
