"Picture yourself in a century-old castle high on a hill in the heart of Tuscany. Your surroundings are those of a majestic Monet painting. Birds humming, and the smell of fresh croissants fills the air. A cup of hot cappucino is being brought to you by the most professional but always smiling and always friendly staff .No you're not dreaming, you and your family of 30 are guests at Villa Leonina,

This hotel set the bar EXTREMELY high for our 2 week vacation. The staff is truly invested in making sure your stay is superb. This is a relatively new-build hotel for Tuscany, but it’s built to look traditional with modern twists. Our room was very spacious and had a modern shower and changing closet. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The pool is beautiful and the spa house is great. Currently you have to book the spa access a day ahead due to covid precautions; you get 1 hour to...

We stayed 3 nights at Palazzo di Valli in late April 2022. The property is beautiful and located in a quiet residential area just south of the city's center. It sits on a hill overlooking a valley, and has it's own orchard and flower gardens. Instead of waking up to the sound of motorcycles and delivery trucks under your window, we woke up to chirping birds. Hosts Lorenzo and Giancarlo were wonderful, offering us recommendations, and helping arrange reservations and transportation. It's a bit of...

Just a phenomenal place to stay. Great breakfast options in the morning, friendly and helpful staff and the grounds were amazing to walk around. Perfect if you are looking to visit the neighboring villages in Tuscany

Wonderful, beautiful property! The rooms are immaculate and nicely decorated. Breakfast is bountiful with wonderful homemade tarts, breads, frittatas. Do not miss dining in the restaurant for dinner. We had several dinners among the best of our 3 week trip to Italy. The staff is very professional, friendly and passionate about their job. Thank you Vito and Caterina for going above and beyond expectations and making our stay one I will never forget. We are already planning our return.

I would definitely go back and stay longer in this region and hotel. Very lovely secluded location with vineyard and olive grove onsite. The bed was fantastic and we slept with the windows open and the sounds of the countryside lulling us asleep. Beautiful. Montalcino is a quaint little town that we thoroughly enjoyed.

When we walked in, the lobby was very nice and bright, and the concierge was very welcoming and helpful. Because we were early for check in, he suggested a few places for lunch as well as a nearby winery. When we came back, the room was absolutely amazing. The back rooms all have a little terrace, which is great for having the infamous Brunello Montalcino wine from the region. The bathrooms are very updated, modern, and clean. I absolutely loved the toiletries--they smelled so good. My husband...

An excellent location for enjoying a peaceful atmosphere, surrounded by true nature and spectacular views. Francesco was a magnificent host. I would certainly stay at this Agriturismo again when I return to Tuscany.

Freshly renovated space owned and run by a very kind couple that puts love into the hospitality they provide their guests. That includes lots of homemade baked goodies/snacks, and a wonderful breakfast buffet in a lovely terrace garden area.

Amazing gem in the Montalcino nearby area in the heart of Tuscany! The place is beautiful with a very interesting history and never hurts that it is in a winery to enjoy great Brunello while there. Minnie the manager was simply amazing with endless tips, information, and help. Thank you!

My husband and I spent 6 fabulous nights here. From the moment I made the reservation, I felt in good hands with great communication about any question I had. The front desk can assist with wine excursions, spa, cooking class and even are connected with a nice local gym you can attend for a small fee. We rented a car and it is a big bonus that this property has on-site parking included in the rate. The Palazzo is located in a prime location, also easy to get in and out which can be tricky in...
