Borgo San Felice Resort Relais & Chateaux in Castelnuovo Berardenga.

Built in the 14th century as a fortified Tuscan farmstead, Borgo San Felice was meticulously restored in the 1970s to become a luxury hotel while preserving its original stone architecture and medieval character.

The property spans 400 acres of rolling countryside in the Chianti region, featuring restored manor houses, cypress-lined pathways, and a working vineyard that produces estate wines.

Its Relais & Châteaux designation reflects the careful curation of accommodations, dining, and service standards.

Borgo San Felice is truly a magical retreat in the Tuscan countryside. The grounds are absolutely stunning, every view feels like a painting. We enjoyed an incredible dinner at the Tuscan restaurant, where the Florentine steak was cooked to perfection. Our room upgrade was such a treat, and was truly the highlight of our trip. While the lunch waitstaff could have been a bit friendlier, the overall service and atmosphere more than made up for it. A perfect blend of luxury, history, and authentic Tuscan charm. An unforgettable experience. 🌞
