We stayed for 4 nights at the Hotel Monteriggioni in mid-September. The hotel was very comfortable and nicely decorated. We particularly enjoyed the garden with a view of the medieval walls where breakfast is served each day. Owner Michael and everyone there were incredibly helpful and welcoming. We chose the hotel because it is located within the ancient hill town of Monteriggioni, and by staying at the hotel one is allowed to drive into the town and to experience its quiet and mystery after the day visitors are all gone. We dined all 4 nights within the town walls and enjoyed all the restaurants, but the best place there is Il Pozzo. Although many maps don't show it, there is a good and very direct road from Monteriggioni to Castellina in Chianti, making Monteriggioni an excellent base for exploring the Chianti region. We highly recommend this hotel.

This hotel is located within the walls of Monteriggioni. The staff/owners are extremely friendly and very helpful. The town is peaceful at the end of the day when all of the tourists have gone home- so you can enjoy a nice dinner in the main square.Unfortunately Il Pozzo was closed for the two nights that we were there, but we ate at the Ristorante Antica Osteria instead. The service was great.

We stayed at the Hotel Monteriggioni for thee nights towards the end of our brief tour of this part of central Tuscany .

The hotel is situated within the small walled and historic town of Montigriggionni , which by any measure makes it an exceptional location . Lots of tourists throughout the day but a strole round the square in the early morning or evening are a delight. Then of course there is the pleasant and secluded garden to retreat to when required .

The hotel is an very good conversion of some old buildings ; the enterior is stylish and polished rather than ousing rustic charm . The room we had was both comfortable and functional rather than cosy .

The hotel provides a good buffet breakfast and there are two good resturants ( we preferred Le Roma ) within a few yards and a number of bars . The owner Luigie is very welcoming and helpful .

Overall , a comfortable and well run hotel from which to explore the area .

The perfect balance between comfort, simplicity, elegance, and hospitality. Room was classic traditional Tuscan style (wood pannelled ceiling, chunky dark wood furniture). View over private gardens to the "battlements" of Monteriggioni was lovely. The host was delightful - really friendly and kind. The breakfast was exceptional - real care taken with the selection and display of food Someone had taken the time to arrange beautiful flowers and other extras on each breakfast table. It was obvious that they pay great attendtion to getting the details right whilst creating a very relaxing atmosphere - a difficult combination to get right.
