This one of a kind 14th Century luxury historic Hotel was built in 1314 as a monastery and, after passing from hand to hand, was restored to its former glory in the twentieth century when it was almost a ruine.
Perfectly located just outside of Siena, if you want to take a nice, long walk you can reach the famous Piazza del Campo on foot.
Chic, exclusive and rustic at the same time, the ancient structure reflects the very character of Tuscany. Whether you eat breakfast in front of the fireplace in the old monastery kitchen, decorated with glowing copper pots, or dine outside under the arches of the cloister, or relax in the richly appointed library, you will be transported into another dimension of time.
