Hotel Monteriggioni

I had such a magical experience at this place last week. Im not being over the top with that word. It's basically in a mini castle! From the second you pull up to the walls you are transported back in time. Francesco and Francesca are amazing hosts. Everyone who works there was friendly and attentive. From the moment we pulled in we felt like welcomed guests. We had a car and drove in, don't be afraid to go through the tight entrance. They have a nice secure parking lot behind a gate within the walls of Monteriggioni. I was in and out a lot and even late at night into the morning. They always had someone at the front reception to let us in with a smile. This was an important feature for my wife and I because we had a wedding nearby and came back and forth a lot. The grounds are very cute and pleasant. Our room was nice and clean and our window opened out into the street. It was fun to open it and feel right in the mix but it wasn't too loud. The rest of the entire hotel is even quieter.

We wanted to stay in a small Tuscany city and found this sweet gem. It had a gorgeous garden full of olive trees and flowering bushes along with a swimming pool. It was so refreshing to swim after a full day of seeing the sights in Siena. The room was perfect, sheets were super lux as were the towels. Bed was a nice king which is unusual. The staff were absolutely the best. Very helpful in answering all of our questions and recommending good spots for dinner. We went wine tasting close by which was a treat. We met many people who were hiking the trail that goes by the town. If you want a quiet experience in the middle of Tuscany this is the spot.

The four-star Hotel was a fantastic spot for a romantic stay behind the walls of this ancient fortress/town. Welcomed warmly by the owner, the reserved parking at the hotel - while a challenge to get to on the narrow streets - was a godsend for us as my wife has some mobility issues. The courtyard (with small pool) is a private space - a quiet oasis from the rest of the town. Restaurant Antico Tavolo served an excellent braised Cingiale and wonderful pasta ( with excellent cheesecake for dessert!) We had the pleasure to witness the joyful wedding at the Chiesa Santa Maria empty into the Piazza that warm afternoon, making the whole experience so very romantic.

We first visited Monteriggioni 16 years ago and 8 had a pipe dream to stay at the local hotel. Fast forward to 2023 and we stayed for 4 nights. Great location, the hotel was quiet, staff very helpful, great continental breakfast. Clean room, plenty of towels and sheets changed during our stay. Local restaurants all very good so you really don’t need to wander far for dinner.

a very welcome sight after a long days walk on the Via Francigena. Super helpful and friendly at reception. rooms spotless, well equipped and nice decor. breakfast was great too - fortified for the day's walk ahead.

Warmest welcome from our first moment arriving and every morning at breakfast. Thank YOU Erik!!!! Impressive english, and greetings in various language for all the guests. The staff here is 5 star. My husband and I stayed for a week and felt like part of the family. Very quiet , gorgeous gardens and grounds. Excellent buffet breakfast (continental) comfy beds, large bath, plenty of hot water. Pool was refreshing since we hit the region during the recent heat wave. The photos are great and showcase what to expect. Top STARS to FRANCHESCA & ERIK & STEPHANIA - whom we encountered everyday- front desk & breakfast- and to all the support ladies who kept our room perfect. Plenty of great advice on where to find the best meal, laundry service and everything a visitor needs to make the best of their time.
