Hotels near Panoramic view, Montepulciano

We stayed for 2 nights in this hidden gem of a hotel. The owners are so welcoming and helpful (particularly useful when trying to find the hotel as we parked outside the walls and walked up to find it and Vittoria drove us down to collect our car so we could follow her back up) the free parking is great but the roads are narrow and windy ! The hotel is on many levels, with 2 lovely terraces (one for breakfast) and an ”up door” and a ”down door” giving access to different parts of the town. Our room was very comfortable with grand Venetian style fittings, a little lounge and a quirky narrow bathroom. There is no air con but a ceiling fan did the trick for us. The best thing about this hotel was the warm and generous welcome from the hosts Roberto and Vittoria. They insisted we should treat their hotel as our own house (mia casa e tua casa!) they were friendly, kind and helpful and Roberto was very entertaining especially when serving you up a delightful breakfast of croissant, cakes, yogurts, fruit, cold meats and cheeses and fruit juice and coffee in his own special style - I would recommend this hotel to all !

After a three year hiatus due to COVID, we were thrilled to be back at Villa Ambra and greeted warmly be Marzio, Katia, and Andrea. This was our sixth stay and will remain our go to hotel while in the Montepulciano area. We throughly enjoyed the evening five course meal provided by the hotel and the hearty breakfast each day. As in the past, we were able to purchase both wine and olive oil from the vineyard and groves that both Marzio and Andrea have produced from their property. We look forward to visiting our friends at Villa Ambra within the next two years.

A spacious and very clean room, in a comfortable location near the centre, a large parking, very friendly owner. Quality/price ratio is greater than excellent. Advised in particular as a base to visit the valley of Orcia.

Il secondo anno che vengo in questo splendido hotel dotato di SPA, un hotel davvero molto completo in quanto ha una piscina al coperto di tipo termale ed una all’aperto dotata di ombrelloni e lettini gratuiti per gli ospiti. A completare i servizi la sera musica dal vivo sul prato all’inglese nel giardino è una colazione continentale davvero completa sia di dolce che di salato.

My primary interest was to stay close to Val d'Orca having seen such beautiful pictures of the place. However, when I bumped into Relias Villa Grazianella during my stay search in Tuscany, the pictures of the accommodation were too perfect to resist even though the location looked a bit further out from Pienza. Having visited, I am absolutely glad I made this decision LOCATION : This place looks like something out of a movie - secluded, with the feel of being so closely connected to nature, the view of shimmering lights of Montepulciano some distance away on a hill, completely surrounded by Olive trees and Vineyards. It is simply magical and makes you want to come back again and again. During the Tuscany visit I got to see a lot of farm stays, BnB etc but the size, scale, location and ambience of this place is incomparable by any other. The Villa sits in the middle of acres of agriculture land owned by a large corporate. The ambience is perfect to relax, unwind and enjoy the beautiful nature and landscape. Montepulciano is not too far from this location. VILLA : A perfect blend of traditional Italian with the modern comfort. The rooms are very large with windows opening to some extremely beautiful views and sounds of birds chirping. The restaurant decor and setup is cozy and inviting. The property's landscape is just too heavenly and beautiful. FOOD : The best food throughout our Italian trip. Fresh ingredients and excellent preparations for breakfast, what one expects from an accommodation in Tuscany. Excellent variety and portions. The true Italian smells and tastes one was looking for. STAFF : Good friendly staff, makes you feel at home. Especially the lady serving us breakfast in the morning (unfortunately forgot to ask her name) treated us like we were guests in her own home. This place is truly heaven on earth and worth booking without a thought. I wish we could have stayed longer, but will be definitely back again.

Pienza is a magical Tuscan hilltop town, and I’ll Chiostro is a jewel of an accommodation. This former monastery is in a beautiful setting, with a staff that was eager to place. The valley views from our room and the outside area were stunning to say the least. The pool looked lovely, even though we were too busy to use it. Pienza is definitely worth visiting, and there are a selection of small osterias and restaurants to choose from. EAT THE PECORINO CHEESE made here. We had a courtyard picnic one evening with a bottle of Brunello and bread and cheese.

We really enjoyed our four days here. The welcome was friendly - though we had to wait for the room to be ready. The room was large (very large for an Italian hotel), well-furnished and comfortable overlooking the garden and breakfast gazebo. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom good. It was a very hot few days - we went out each morning to nearby towns of interest - Monticchiello, Pienza, Montepulciano, Città delle Pieve, Panicale ... and came back to the hotel after lunch. At 4.00 we went to the pool - which was large, clean and well set up, pettily sited in the garden with Tuscan hills as a backdrop. We had booked half-board, so had breakfast and dinner at the hotel (in the Taverna, where the food and service was very good). Really a great break.

Great location just outside the main entrance to San Quirico. Spotless clean with very professional personnel who truly works very hard to please guests. The beds are comfortable and the bathrooms small but clean. We moved from an upstairs room to one with a small garden—which was much more enjoyable. As we stayed 8 nights having access to a private garden made a huge difference—note however that you will not be guaranteed a room with a garden! The upstairs room had a strange couch that was uncomfortable—basically just for show. We travelled with a small dog and were charged 20 euros a night extra for cleaning but we did not mind though it seems on the high side. The staff truly made an effort to make us and our small dog feel welcome. A bowl and a bed were provided. Breakfast was wonderful but we had to walk through town as it is only served at the main of the hotel. If it rains, it is a bit of an inconvenience but the hotel does lend guests an umbrella. Hotel parking is a nightmare and I cannot recommend it unless you have a tiny car. Free public parking is convenient and we never had an issue finding a spot.
