I had a wonderful stay at a charming, rustic hotel in the heart of Tuscany. The rooms were beautifully presented and had a touch of luxury. The property itself had that classic Tuscany charm with its old stone walls and picturesque views. The restaurant served exceptional food, and the wine from the Mazzei vineyards was absolutely delicious. I also enjoyed relaxing by the infinity pool, taking in the stunning surroundings. I highly recommend this hotel for a memorable getaway in Tuscany.

The location of this resort was perfect for a peaceful Tuscan getaway. The rooms were beautifully decorated and appointed, making it a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that we had everything we needed and wanted during our time there. We particularly loved the cooking lessons, which were a highlight of our stay and offered a unique and memorable experience. the delicious wine and tasting at the on-site enoteca was a wonderful bonus.
My husband experienced some discomfort with the bed due to his ongoing back issues. It's worth noting that I didn't have any issues with it, but it seems that the bed may not have been suitable for those with back problems.

The scenery, breakfast, wines, rooms, walks, hikes. The initial room had a loud boiler, but staff quickly moved us to a bigger, quieter, and beautiful room. A car is recommended for visiting. Jean was lovely and helped us get a restaurant reservation. The location was great, offering a wine tasting, and a bar with drinks and sandwiches. The pool was nice, with a cool bag for picnics. Friendly, helpful staff. Would definitely return if in the region.

The location of the resort is perfect for exploring the surrounding towns and villages, including the nearby city of Siena. the rooms are beautifully designed and offer stunning views of the vineyards. the breakfast and dinner at the Osteria are delicious, with excellent service. the wine tasting included in the price is a wonderful experience.
The Osteria could benefit from varying its menu and offering specials to provide more dining options.

The staff were welcoming and friendly, making our Christmas stay enjoyable. The location was perfect for a peaceful holiday, surrounded by beautiful countryside and charming villages. We loved the opportunity to do wine tasting, it added a special touch to our stay.
It would have been nice to have tea and coffee making facilities in the room, especially during the early mornings when the restaurant wasn't open. We felt that the hotel lacked some basic amenities that could have improved our experience.
Tourists from United States of America often stay at these properties. Consider them for your next trip.
