This was our second stay at Villa Poggiano, having stayed 2 years ago. It was every bit as special and just as we remembered it. Understated elegance, an Italian marble pool to die for, gorgeous Italian style villa sympathetically restored, wonderful grounds. Delicious breakfasts offering every type of cooked eggs, home cooked pastries/jam tarts/breads, cheeses, meats, etc. etc. If you are looking for peace and tranquility in an exceptionally beautiful part of Tuscany and are a discerning traveller with an high expectation you will not be disappointed. Villa Pogginano is very suited to couples. Stefania is a wonderful host offering helpful, friendly and knowledgeable advice in a quiet, elegant manner. We have travelled extensively staying in expensive accommodations but this just hits the spot. We will be returning again and again to see Stefania and our most favourite part of Tuscany. Montepulciano is just so perfect for travelling to the beautiful towns including, Montichiello, Pienza and Montalcino which all offer fantastic dining options.

Excellent Villa, Beautiful views across Tuscany. Montepulciano is a must to visit. Excellent rooms except for the Cold Showers. Swimming pool was extremely enjoyable while drinking a great bottle of wine.

This was our fourth time a Villa Poggiano. Each time it just gets better! Stefania and her staff are very welcoming, excellent at what they do, and never seemed bothered by even the simplest request. This time we took the cooking class and discovered the joy of Tuscan cooking and how good it is. Will do again!

The room was excellent in size and very comfortable (we stayed in the second floor two room suite—quite spacious). The bathroom was immense by even US standards. The pool and grounds are pristine and only if it had been a touch warmer we would have used the pool. The benefit of being outside of Montepulciano is the quite and the view of the surrounding Tuscan hillsides out your window. Not to be missed! The breakfast is very good and eggs can be cooked to order. My wife took advantage of this each morning but I stayed with the salami, coppa, cheese and bread. There is a wide ranch of products including fresh baked cakes.

The person who makes this place so special is Stefania. She is always there with a smile and a laugh. Each time we would talk to her about our plans for the day it was like the first time she every talked about the antique fair in Arezzo. It was a wonderful day visiting this nearby city, which we would have never done had it not been for Stefania recommendation. She is also a VERY good read on were to eat in Montepulciano. Every recommendation this time and in the past have been first class.

Cannot recommend highly enough! Go—you won’t be disappointed!

The villa is a little bit outside Montepulciano in an amazing surrounding. The villa and other residential buildings are nice and of good quality, too, but it is especially because of the views and the mind relaxing atmosphere that one should choose this hotel. We had a suite with a wonderful view. The hotel does not have a restaurant, but the personnel is very helpful and friendly, and they made us a reservation for a lovely restaurant La Grotta, where we had one of our best meals during our eight days tour in the Tuscany region The breakfast of top quality was served on a lovely terrace. The old swimming pool is especially beautiful.
