Pienza Hotels with Balcony

Great choice for touring Val D'Orcia. Stayed two nights here in April. This was our third visit to Pienza but our first overnight stay. Picked the Corsignano primarily because it offered free on-site parking and was only a short walk to the the old walled town. Delighted with our choice. It ticked all of the boxes. Friendly reception, nice (very) clean room with terrace, comfortable bed, great shower, good breakfast, short walk to the beautiful old city and great restaurants. Free on-site parking was actually quite limited and was full when we arrived. The receptionist moved her own car to free up a space for us. No problem the second evening. The receptionist did inform us that due to government requirements for energy conservation we would need to call the desk to turn on the heat if we wanted it. We encountered this in other hotels also. We were very comfortable without it. Pienza is the ideal location for touring and enjoying the Val D'Orcia and the most beautiful areas of Tuscany. The views approaching Pienza from the south in the evening are stunning and unforgetable and the views from the Belvedere behind the Duomo are pure magic. The iconic winding cypress roadway at La Foce and the tiny Capella Vitaleta are just a short drive away - (the Capella is now open to the public down a 15 minute walk) Everywhere you look is a painting. Pure magic!!

We rented Il Macchione out for our wedding guests and we are so happy we did so. They put up with so many emails from me before we arrived and were still very kind and welcoming when we got there! The property itself has the most stunning views and all the staff was incredibly kind and helpful. Everyone had their own flats and space but we had a communal feeling. If we hadn't rented the whole place out, there was still lots of room so that you wouldn't feel like you were holidaying with a lot of strangers. They arranged a yoga class for us and could arrange for a private chef. The family owns some restaurants in Pienza too which were very tasty! They also provide a parking spot in Pienza so you can find parking much easier than you can otherwise. I cannot recommend this place enough. We are already planning on returning for our anniversary and CANNOT wait! Thank you Francesco and everyone at Il Macchione!

This was was our first time in Tuscana and our first time to stay at an agriturismo. What an incredible, relaxing experience! Our stay at Agriturismo Bonello run by Luca and his staff was the best part of our three-week stay in Italy. Our room was clean and comfortable. The property is gorgeous, surrounded by rolling hills, wheat fields, olive and cypress trees. The location was perfect for us to make daily trips to surrounding hilltop cities and other sights. Luca is a pleasant, unobtrusive, hard-working host. And the group dinner that he and his wife made from local products was out of this world. We would love to return one day.

Surprise, beautiful as a fairyland! Be sure to come!
