Beautiful hotel run by a lovely family. Great terrace to enjoy a glass of wine overlooking the valley. Delicious buffet breakfast. Rooms fantastic with very comfy bed and lovely sheets.
This is a beautiful hotel with beautiful views and a great location. The owner and staff are wonderful and accommodating. We arrived in the heat of August and our first room would not cool down. The owner moved us to another room with a better air conditioner fairly quickly and was so kind. Breakfast was wonderful - one of the best we had in Italy! This hotel is close to some of the best restaurants as well.

A simply beautiful property with lovely hosts. A little difficult to find at first but well worth the effort!
This was a great place to stay in the historic district. I stayed here a night with my wife while hiking the Via Francigena. The reception was friendly and efficient, the room was comfortable, and the breakfast was awesome. And they have an elevator! Thank you for a very pleasant stay.

Combination of old town and greenfield
Located at the center of the old town, but also providing a nice view of the greenfield. Nice breakfast and kind hosts.
The hotel owners are great: super friendly and helpful! We really enjoyed the stay and delicious breakfast. Would definitely recommend to everyone of this beautiful hotel!
The bedroom was small but had a lovely view from the bathroom window and balcony.
Breakfast was delicious and staff were friendly.
It was disappointing that the room was hot and stuffy even with air-conditioning on (temp 24.5 degrees). We opened the balcony doors which helped however let insects in. It was also disappointing for the price that parking was a few minutes walk from property.
Nice place to stay - town & hotel as well. Very comfortable room, cleaning daily, tasty breakfast at romantic terrace, very kind and helpful staff. Recomend for next travellers. Convenient point for visit surrounding historical destinations
Small unique hotel. Pietro was a friendly host. The lady who served breakfast was great, eggs cooked to order and good choice from buffet. Nice terrace with super view to have breakfast on. We ate one night at the associated wine bar across the road and both food and service were brilliant.

Great hotel with great hospitality owners.
The hotel is located in a nice town. Room is nice with an awesome scenic view. The breakfast is good and have cook to order egg. The only downside is the air condition can be colder.
We loved our stay here! The owners were very welcoming from the beginning to the end. The room was cute, quiet, and clean. There was an excellent view from our room and the terrace. She recommended a restaurant near by which was amazing. Their breakfast was beautiful and the owners were there and explained some of the culture and surroundings.
Pietro and his lovely wife were gracious and generous hosts at this wonderful lodging. We felt as is we were guests of personal friends in this beautiful. Our most spacious and comfortable room had two large windows that opened to a wide and unforgettable views of a classic Tuscan hillside; beautiful! We highly recommend!!

An excellent hidden treasure
Very friendly family operated hotel. The hotel keeper personally grabbed our bags our trunk and carried these swiftly into our room so fast we hardly couldn’t blink. He even went with me in the car to find a parking space. Hotel is freshly renovated in a classical fashion to keep the antique flair. Opposite of the hotel You can find the enoteca ill salotto, which is also operated by the same family and is also worthy a visit. I can absolutely recommend this hotel and its venue

Excellent customer service, beautiful room and view to the mountains, tasty breakfast! Overall an amazing experience
The owner of the property was very much involved. The staff is polite and very helpful. The cooked to order eggs were delicious. We received a free wine tasting at the owners Enoteca across the street. Our room had a balcony with a fantastic view. The only negative was the water for the shower did not get hot enough for us.

Wonderful service. The hotel is located on an old neighborhood street with charm and style. You feel a part of the neighborhood. The room was comfortable and quite but had several issues- the toilet tank leaked, leaving a smell in the bathroom; absolutely NO hot water for showers; the floor heating system did not control well leaving the room either too hot or too cold.
The owners, Pietro and Heike, are gracious and attentive hosts and their staff are wonderful. The location is very near the historic center but it's very uncrowded. We were there a week and felt like we were living in a local neighborhood, not a tourist zone. Parking is free but a bit of a hike. Breakfast was delightful with an exceptional veranda view.

Charming city that serves as a good station to explore Tuscany. The property is set in the old town, very beautiful and perched high above the rest of the city. We arrived late and had to wait a bit for someone to show up. The owner is very nice and helpful. They own a wine shop across the street. Breakfast is superb with a great Tuscan view.
There are no major issues with the hotel, we just do not think it is as deserving of the high ratings it gets on here. The AC is centrally controlled, and our room was frequently very hot. We slept with the windows open, cooling things off, but faced the street and had some noise. The lights in the hallways are supposedly motion activated, but required constant manual engagement to avoid complete darkness. The room, although on the small side, was adequate. The bathroom is a bit cramped, but was fine. Parking was difficult at night, and we ended up leaving the car fairly far away one night. Staff very helpful at setting up day trip itineraries for the region.
Excellent service, clean and spacious room. Great recommendations on what to do in the surrounding areas and best times of day to visit to avoid excessive tour groups
What a wonderful place! The people, the hotel, the views all were simply incredible. Since coming here, we have already talked about wanting to come back and enjoy this special place again. The hotel is large enough to know you're in a hotel (as opposed to farmhouse or something like that) but intimate enough to be relaxing and peaceful.
