It was a totally delightful experience. Our needs were taken care of, the Breakfast delicious and the meals at their restaurant superb. It was a perfect place to rest, relax and see Siena.
The staff was very helpful and friendly. The property shows it's age but has lots of charm. After all it is a very historic building. Make sure you take the tour on weekends. The Chapel is must see. Absolutely unexpectedly beautiful. Paintings as good as in any Cathedral and there you are by yourself in this exquisite chapel. The property is just a few minutes outside of Sienna in a very quiet location amongst olive trees. The food in the dining room is excellent. Beyond expectations. Excellent wines of the region available. Unfortunately the bar which has a different menu was always closed while we were there. Not many other dining options near by. About 10 to 15 min. drive. The breakfast has many options and is exactly the same every day. The quality could be a little better. Overall very pleasant stay and we would do it again.
We enjoyed 4 wonderful days and loved every minute. The staff was kind, friendly, helpful, and made our stay very pleasant. Initially we had only booked 3 nights but loved it so much that decided to add one more night. The location also allowed us to visit other parts of the region like Pisa, Florence, and Siena. Having breakfast included and on site parking was the icing on this stay!!
Absolutely fantastic place. Very traditional, peaceful and totally beautiful place and setting. Scenery and gardens are so perfect.The staff were exceptional, the food truly divine. Absolutely magical place.This was truly the nicest and most authentic place we stayed in all ofTuscany.
This is a unique place, beautiful, quiet, romantic, special… very Italian and religious, a piece of art and great for relaxing and rest. For sure I will recommend to friends and family.
Very cool property. The grounds are stunning and the dining was great. We did not have WiFi in our room unfortunately since it was broken and they were not able to fix it. They have e bikes on the property available to rent which was a great way to see the vineyards. Overall we had a very nice stay!
Loved this place. A truly authentic Tuscany experience. Such a beautiful place. The restaurant was fabulous and an experience too. Should have stayed longer.
