Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Very old but beautiful place, a little scary because it is so old, clean, because the furniture is so old and dry it is not cofy . Friendly staff. Good breakfast but nothing exceptional. Worth the price. The only thing is if you have a lot of luggage or a very heavy suitcase do not choose the cella/room #1 suite because it has two large flights of stairs and the hotel obviously does not have an elevator.
I recommend it to have an experience and not to stay for several days
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!!!!!!!
What a gem! We were blown away by the grounds and facilities at this stay. Dinner was fabulous, the bar was making delicious craft cocktails, and breakfast had so many options everyone could find something wonderful. We stumbled upon a billiard room our last night there while wandering around the cloisters, and found it so charming. Beds were not the greatest, shower was small and leaky, but I would absolutely stay here again!
LOVED this property - room was basic but dining was fabulous, area is stunning and could not have asked for a better property to walk around for a relaxing evening. I hope to be back.
