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!

Great stay in late November. Views are breathtaking. Unusual rooms with a lot of history. Good breakfast. Dinner is rather on a high price end $250.00 for four. Be aware to use hot water wisely. It can end unexpectedly, and you will have to wait for 30 minutes for the heater to heat it up. Nice and helpful stuff. I would definitely come back and recommend to my friends.

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.
