Podere Brizio

Had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful accommodation. The surroundings are breathtaking and the accommodation very comfortable. The rooms was spacious with air conditioning, wifi, minibar and ensuite. We dined in the restaurant one night and the food was excellent. There was no choice of food, but all allergies were catered for. All the staff we met were very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was continental with various fruit and cerals available. There was also a small spa with a Jacuzzi, Steam Room and Sauna which we availed of also. There was a swimming pool, but we didn't use that. Would higly recommend this beautiful spot but you will need a car as it's approx 10 min drive from the nearest town of Montalcino.

We spent four nights from 22nd to 26th September driving from Florence. Very pleasant stay, staff very helpful including arranging visit at short notice to the family owned winery Sesti di Sopra. We had dinner at the property on 23rd which was good quality with generous servings of Brunello. Tennis court and pool were nice although I think we were the only guests to use either. Day trip to Pienza 24 Sep was a nice diversion.

Stayed for 3 nights in June. We had booked directly a few months before our stay & secured a good price for one of their larger rooms/ suites. The room was huge with a lovely private terrace and good air conditioning . Included were top bed linens , thick soft towels , bath robes & slippers, a well stocked mini bar , huge bathroom with an enormous bath & walk in shower. Most importantly the bed was huge & the most comfortable during our trip .They had thought of everything and equalled most 5 star hotels rooms we have stayed in. We ate dinner there all 3 nights . For 38 euros per person you received a four course set dinner plus coffee with the option of purchasing wine by the glass or bottle . You could purchase their own wine or there was a selection of other Tuscan wines. The food was delicious - beating a lot of the meals we had during our 14 day tour of Tuscany. My only disappointment was that some of the dishes were repeated on the third night as I was looking forward to tasting some more delicious options. Thank you to Julia who is an excellent cook. Breakfasts were a typical Italian affair with fruit, sliced meat & cheese, bread & home cooked cakes. It was nice to have the option of scrambled eggs as well although sometimes it had been standing around too long & was cold. The meals are served on a lovely terrace looking over the vineyard or in a dining room if wet . The grounds around the hotel are beautiful . I particularly liked the herb garden. Due to inclement weather we did not use the pool but it was bigger than expected, private with lots of sun beds . We did the wine tasting at the vineyard which was informative & interesting. Finally leaving the best to last is the manager Vito ( & of course Mia his dog ) . He was most welcoming & couldn’t do enough for us even setting up a WhatsApp group so we could contact him anytime if needed, Thank you Vito. Not sure we will be back as we rarely return anywhere but we are very tempted …highly recommended.

An impeccably maintained property in the heart of Montalcino with amazing and spacious rooms. The staff provided exceptional service; everyone was incredibly courteous, going above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. Special mention to Vito, the head manager, for his outstanding hospitality.

The Podere Brizio is a quiet, quaint, beautiful place that you will want to return to. Vito and Mia welcomed us upon arrival and ensured we had everything we needed during our stay. Coffee and an ice bucket were brought out to us when he noticed us sitting outside enjoying the spring air. The room was spacious and clean with all amenities that are needed while traveling. The included breakfast had enough options to satisfy our morning hunger. We did not partake of the dinner meal, but heard it was also good. This location is breathtaking and worthy of a visit. We would love to go back some time. Thanks!

This hotel is just beautiful! Surrounded by olive groves and vineyards it is Tuscan heaven. It is impeccably well looked after, clean inside and out and the service is fantastic and welcoming. We sadly only had 1 night here but it was the best of our whole trip and we much enjoyed an afternoon and morning by the swimming pool. It is close to Montalcino where we had dinner although it is also served at the hotel. Breakfast on the terrace was delightful and their little dog is so sweet. Really hope we will return someday! Highly recommend
