Restos/Hotels NW Lazio and La Maremma

[rpdkpd]

At the front end and back end of a one week villa rental near Montepulciano in late June, we would like to find two places, for a night each, about 60-90 minutes drive above Rome/FCO Airport. Thinking of NW Lazio and La Maremma, but we don't know those areas. We tend to think of finding restaurants first, and then nearby hotels. Our budget is relatively modest (150-250 euros/night for hotel, 60-100 euros/person for dinner), and we delight in restaurants which favor local cuisine over splash. Any suggestions or points to links would be appreciated! We will post a report when we return, as we have with previous trips assembled from suggestions from friends on eG.

Just as an option, there are a number of reasonably priced hotels right in the town of Fiumicino and we've had great fish meals and pizza in various restaurants. If you have an early flight it might make life a little easier. We've always had good rooms and service at Euro House Hotel.

You can check out venere.com for good info about hotels in La Maremma.

I'd recommend the town of Tuscania in NW Lazio (west of Viterbo). It's charming and has a wonderful hotel/restaurant, Al Gallo.

I'll second that. Tuscania is beautiful, and Al Gallo is great, both hotel and restaurant.
