Hotel dei Capitani in Montalcino, open June–September.
Hotel dei Capitani sits in Montalcino's historic center, meaning your guests can walk to medieval streets, wine shops, and restaurants without needing shuttles.
This 4.2-rated property offers on-site accommodations, so out-of-town visitors have sleeping arrangements sorted alongside ceremony and reception space.
The 16th-century palazzo setting provides stone walls and period architecture without requiring extensive decoration.
The view is beautiful, though in Tuscany you’ll find plenty of stunning scenery everywhere, so you don’t necessarily need a hotel to enjoy it. The rooms could use an update, the furniture seems intended to reflect a certain old style, but it feels quite worn and would benefit from a refresh. That said, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, which we truly appreciated.
