Great stay in late November. Views are breathtaking. Unusual rooms with a lot of history. Good breakfast. Dinner is rather on a high price end $250.00 for four. Be aware to use hot water wisely. It can end unexpectedly, and you will have to wait for 30 minutes for the heater to heat it up. Nice and helpful stuff. I would definitely come back and recommend to my friends.

This beautiful property has been the most wonderful overnight accommodation that we've had in our two week central Italy trip. It is obviously a labor of love in the restoration of the 600 year old monastery, local breakfast selections, wonderful reception staff, and attentive and delicious on site restaurant options. We thoroughly enjoyed having a modest room (clean, modern, simple) and then walking through the spacious buildings, grounds, olive groves and nearby vineyards. It was such a pleasant exploring adventure that we extended a couple extra days and used the property as a delightful hone base each evening. We highly recommend this hotel and hope to be back again next year!!

Great service, comfortable room, the breakfast buffet is really good, and the onsite restaurant is superb! The location is a bit isolated but after all it used to be a monastery, the building is beautiful! I strongly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the Chianti area!!!!!!!

Florin, Renton

Beautiful grounds and great breakfast spread. The catch is that their apartments (monks cells) do not have AC, and windows are small and have no mosquito nets. Could not sleep the first night, we switched and got two separate double rooms with AC by paying almost double, but we were comfortable. Something you should be aware if you travel at the peak of summer. The area around the property is scenic, among vineyards and orchards, but the drive through the periphery of Siena is pretty ugly, before reaching the historical center which is breathtaking with easily one of the most beautiful piazzas (del Canpo) in the whole Italy. The bar is convenient but I recommend the restaurants on the Main Street before turning towards Pontignano (La Botte di Chianti in Ponte a Bozzone, inexpensive and good food).

Exceptional selection and quality of food and drink. A place that treasures local produce and highest quality ingredients. An unforgettable experience in heart of Tuscany. Thank you

The full-service restaurant was great (although pricey) with excellent attentive staff. However, the bar/cafe/grocery was even better. Paola was a wonderful server/conversationalist/all-around great guy. We had very good food available there in a limited menu at reasonable prices with great conversation. The front desk staff was very helpful with maps and suggestions of driving tours we could take advantage of, which we did.

Amazing historic building. The bartenders were great & the food at restaurant was NEXT level good. Likely one of the best truffle risotto that I have ever had. We had an apartment & it’s a very choppy design and without AC. We were very lucky thst it was cool when we were there. The fans were more than enough to keep us comfy. BEAUTIFUL garden area & the included breakfast was great. We would stay again as long as the weather is cool.
