Dream first Italy stop!

We enjoyed 4 wonderful days and loved every minute. The staff was kind, friendly, helpful, and made our stay very pleasant. Initially we had only booked 3 nights but loved it so much that decided to add one more night. The location also allowed us to visit other parts of the region like Pisa, Florence, and Siena. Having breakfast included and on site parking was the icing on this stay!!

8/10 Very good

This is the most amazing place! The staff was so friendly and helpful. The meals were some of the best we've ever had. The breakfast buffet also the nicest ever. Now imagine this 13th monastary set in the most picture postcard place. The gardens and chapel are incredible! If you are in the siena area you must stay here!

The gardens were impressive. Not much to do in the evening.

Fantastic Landscape

It was fantastic ! Great atmosphere. Wonderfull landscape. Local restaurant a bit expensive but many other great options 10 /15 min driving from the hotel at a better cost benefit .

10/10 Exceptional

This property is the most unique stay you will ever have. The view of the surrounding area is absolutely breathtaking. When picturing an idyllic Tuscan countryside, this is it! Sleeping in a room with so much history and character was humbling. Included breakfast was amazing. Hopefully we will be able to stay here again some day.
Julie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A very unique place. The views from the room were unbelievably beautiful!!! The chapel was very special. The front desk staff were very courteous and helpful, especially Angelo. It would have been nice to have air conditioning in our room as it was very hot during our stay.
Tina, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A unique stay with such a rich unique history!

Staying at this old monastery is such a uniquely different guest experience! Surrounded by fantastic old architecture and history, in a quiet location, with beautiful courtyards, Italian garden and an ornately decorated old church. Staff was friendly. Dine in the courtyard which is in a romantic setting, whereas the restaurant lacks ambiance. Amazing breakfast options, dining on patio overlooking the Italian garden. The room was small, but we were happy to get a queen bed.

10/10 Exceptional

Great property that exceeded our expectations. Very tranquil, with incredible privacy when staying in the “apartments”. Only 15ish minutes to Siena, and five to ten minutes to surrounding wineries. Staff was friendly, and food options were decent. We would definitely stay here again. Only complaint would be the qualities of the mattresses. Pretty rough.
Simon, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Beautiful place but that alone is not enough

Beautiful and authentic building amidst an impressive piece of nature. Very serene atmosphere with good amenities. The downside for us was that after the friendly check-in at reception, the rest of the staff we encountered at the bar and restaurant was disorganized and gave the impression that they did not care much. Food quality was ok at best, the wine was warm, food was served with disinterest, getting the attention from a waiter was a real challenge, etc. … For this upmarket, high-end place this should really not be the case. We felt we should have gone to the osteria in the village instead. Also, the shower had a bad case of black fungus … again, something that should not be the case in a place like this. Breakfast was great. In the end we left with the feeling that the setting was a unique experience but that the overall experience could have been much better. We reported this to the front desk. She received our feedback with a smile but if there was any kind of empathy or feeling of urgency to improve it did not show.

10/10 Exceptional

En fantastisk upplevelse att bo på ett stort fd kloster på kullarna utanför Siena. Vi blev så väl mottagna i receptionen efter att ha parkerat bland olivträd, av två vänliga tjejer. När man sen öppna grinden in på klostergården...Och rummen var fräscha, enkla med den service man behövde som speglar att det varit ett kloster. Trädgården och vyerna var fantastisk. Verandan, baren, restaurangen och frukostrummet var också perfekta, likaså personalen. Kul att denna plats drivs av universitetet. Vi kommer tillbaka
