About Albergo Santa Chiara

Albergo Santa Chiara rises from the Tuscan hills near Sarteano, commanding views across rolling vineyards and clay valleys that stretch toward the Val d'Orcia.

This former convent, converted into a hotel, preserves centuries of architecture while offering stone terraces and gardens positioned at 573 meters elevation.

Ceremonies take place against backdrops of cypress groves and distant hilltop villages, with reception spaces housed within the original monastery walls.

Our 2nd time having lunch here and it’s been wonderful. The location is just magical, the food is delicious and the service and kitchen are fantastic, but everything is at an Italian pace so expect to sit back, relax and enjoy.
