  Thanks for the great time we had there 🙂

• Donna from Canada (7/10)

  Location just off the highway was good as a base for travelling to nearby towns in different directions, and a lovely view of Montereggioni at night. Room size was adequate, if not huge. Breakfast was OK, although the very same every day for the 4 days we stayed. Bed was a good size, and comfortable. Lots of parking, and some rooms have a nice view of the pool area…although we faced a small lawn and trees.

  We only stayed here for one night, on our way through Monteriggioni, and everything was quite alright. Our room was not very big but fine and the hotel lounge is quite nice. The breakfast buffet was very decent.
