Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of pleasant and not so great experiences. The rooms were creatively decorated, but noise from the reception area could be disturbing. The service was excellent, offering a lot of assistance and recommendations. The location was convenient for exploring the nearby areas, but parking was a bit of a hassle. The dining experience stood out with a rich selection of dishes. Overall, a stay with ups and downs.
The hotel has convenient rooms with a shared living room ideal for traveling with friends, but the stairs can be dangerous for children. The service is top-notch, always ready to meet any need or solve any issue. The location is central, perfect for exploring the Val d'Orcia, but the reception transition could be smoother. The dining experience offers a generous spread of food to kickstart your day, but it's limited to typical Italian options.
