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!

It is a must-do in Italy if you are traveling to Tuscany. The hotel's decoration and architecture transport you back in time. The breakfast and restaurant are excellent.

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).

Truly an exceptional place, a unique experience, the staff were wonderful, the atmosphere and history permeated from every corner of this magnificent building. The gardens were maintained immaculately. All staff- from check in, bar (superb sommelier with great knowledge of wines), restaurant waiters, cleaners were incredibly attentive, polite and friendly. 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.
