The view was amazing. The breakfast & servers a great way to begin the day. The room was ok - could hear people on either side of us. We were able to park close and walk to restaurants. Much was closed in early November. Great location for winery visits. In nice weather, the pool would be inviting.

Very good location. Rooms are very old and small. Pool is nice but when we arrived there were towels on every chair and no people anywhere. All towels were still there hours later so no one was really cleaning the area. It was fine for one night but would not have stayed longer. Bed was thin, pillows were tiny. Views were beautiful and staff was helpful. Walls are very thin and we were woken by toilets flushing all night.

Lovely little hotel in a beautiful wine-lovers town. The view from our ‘view room’ is one of the nicest and most relaxing views I’ve ever seen. This is our second time back here, and we would return in a heartbeat. The bed was comfortable- European pillows. Staff was very kind and helpful. Parking is available.

Never Again!
The hotel itself was fine with stunning views from our room. However, the welcome was amongst the worst I have ever experienced and my wife’s views confirmed my initial thoughts. The first words from the front desk ‘staff’ was, “ you can’t park there”. No hi, hello, welcome. The atmosphere around the hotel felt strained and stuffy and no fun is to be found there. Rolling of the eyes, tutting, sighing like everything was too much trouble from the two staff. A guest should never be subjected to such displays of passive aggression. Actually we couldn’t wait to get out of there and we feel relieved that it was just a one night stop off of our short tour of Italy. This shouldn’t take anything away from the location, the town in general which was wonderful. And some front staff we met later on (late shift) and the rooming and restaurant staff all seemed pleasant but my word, the other two! I can’t overstate the utter snobbishness!

Easier to get to than some of the other hill towns we visited. Check in was easy and welcoming, the lady speaking English was very nice and informative. Manager could be more inviting, but did show us the parking nearby. Parking is free which is a bonus, but coming up the hill is tricky due to the angle at the top. You may bottom out. Free breakfast is another perk and it's fabulous. A good assortment plus an amazing panoramic view. Cappuccino is served, but you help yourself to the food. The gentlemen serving where terrific. Our room was terrific, cleaned each day. We had a room with a view and were often content to just enjoy it, it truly is marvelous. Good sized room and the bed was comfortable. My wife thought the sheets weren't soft enough. TV is Italian only, CNN would be nice. Shower is different as it has two doors? The key chain is a great idea as it fits in a slot by the door and is used as an energy saver. If lights won't work it's due to the fact you haven't placed your key chain in the slot. I didn't take the beer from the fridge. There is a butcher shop at the top of the hill that has beer for €1. I'm not a wine person so the small bottle of Toscana sure tasted good to me, 3€! La Torre Pizzeria al Taglio is a short walk along the main drag and has terrific pizza. Very inexpensive, especially if you would like to avoid those €50. dinners or have kids. The only issue I have is one I have with other places. Don't advertise your pool as a grea

Exceeded expectations
The hotel is very well located. Close to everything but Montalcino is not a big place anyways. However, you can drive up to the hotel which is very good and convenient. Hotel parking is tight but if you are a good driver-not a problem if your skills are not there it will be intimidating. But so would be all other places in Italy. Breakfast was really good. Service and helpfulness of personnel was very good. I would stay there again. Oh I forgot to mention exceptional views.

The location is very good, the only thing if you have difficulty walking it is at the bottom a rather steep but not too long hill that you need to go to get to the center of town. staff is friendly and helpful. The room view is breathtaking. The breakfast is very good. Good size bathroom I would come back to this hotel.

Average
Very unkind welcoming. After I walked in, said “good evening, we are staying at your hotel, can we park here?”, the response was: “but who are you!” (Can’t write the tone of voice but it was very rude). Also the check out wasn’t pleasant (with an older lady) when we had to pay the city tax, the lady just continued phoning and ignoring our credit card saying she preferred cash but then she took the card. Hmm... and thrown on the reception desk to my friend. So the receptionists skills could be improved. However, the lady at breakfast was super kind and very helpful even though she was alone and it was probably a bit stressful for her. We’ve been situated in a building next to the main building. The interior was a bit old.

This hotel is situated overlooking the beautiful Tuscan valleys and hills. It is at the lower end of the main street in town so there’s a steep but short walk every day to get to the shops and restaurants. We managed just fine despite being senior citizens. The downside of this hotel is that there appears to be no soundproofing between rooms—especially the bathrooms. The noise from showers and toilet flushing in neighboring rooms is quite loud. That said, I would go back again (with earplugs) because the view is so wonderful it more than makes up for the noise.

Excellent hotel, highly recommend for your stay in the center of Montalcino. Clean, comfortable with rooms, with AC. Our room with a view was fabulous, breathtaking views of the Tuscan hills. Staff was extremely helpful, offering to call our favourite vineyards the day of to see if they had availability for wine tasting at the vineyards. This ranges from 5euros each to around 30. Very very kind! Pool was lovely, resembled a mini infinity pool looking over the Tuscan hills. Walking distance to everything, and available parking behind hotel. Breakfast was delicious and satisfying, may I add breakfast with a view.

Lovely hotel, great town, Incredible view
The view is just incredible! I'm talking, of course about anything facing the valley. It's worth paying for the upper, bigger rooms facing the valley. The view is just breathtaking, and made every morning, evening and night a pleasure. And even if you can't get the room with a view, well, the patio, and the view while bathing in the pool are the same. The staff were caring and professional. The morning breakfasts were tremendous - great variety & freshness and service. Can't recommend this place enough! Note: I was there in the beautiful summer season: hot, picturesque, and the pool was an extra bonus. A/C worked well.

Amazing view
This place has a beautiful pool, and one of the better hotel breakfasts we have had on our trip around Italy. We paid to upgrade our room so we could enjoy the beautiful view. Unfortunately, the a/c was not working, or it needed a remote that was not provided. We had a pretty uncomfortable sleep. Yes, we opened the windows, but that also means bugs and waking up when the sun rises. Also, fyi the free parking is not at the hotel property. It's a bit of a trek to the parking lot. Overall though, we were sad to say goodbye to that amazing view, and would stay again in a heartbeat for the view alone.
