It was such a treat to stay in this beautiful hotel inside Monteriggionni. The staff was welcoming and provided the friendliest and most thorough service. The rooms were charming, peaceful and clean and the staff attended to all of our needs. We would recommend and stay again. The town is so quaint and offered wonderful opportunities to explore and experience this beautiful village life.

All positive things you can read here in this trail are correct, pictures reflect the reality. So, my summary: were happy to get there, nice retreat, the place is flooded with tourists but the hotel offers enough space and silence to calm down. The hosts are lovely, hope the hotel will stay how and where it is, heard some rumours about a potential sale...so, get there as long as you can.

We spent 3 nights here earlier this week. We wanted a small Tuscan town close to Siena and close to other small (everything is huge compared to this town) towns. The Hotel Monteriggioni was perfect for us. (Thank you Chat GPT) 🤣. The room was clean, and updated. The free buffet breakfast was great. The blood orange juice was THE BEST (we don’t have blood oranges in NY). There are a few restaurants in town for dinner which were also very good. I highly recommend Hotel Monteriggioni if you want an authentic Tuscan experience. (Pics are not of the hotel but of the town. I didn’t take any pics inside )
