The bar is small, but there is a perfect outdoor patio to spend the afternoon with a bottle of wine. Pool was very nice, but only open during the day. Breakfast buffet was extensive, with pastries, cereal, and even a small selection of charcuterie and fresh honeycomb. I came with a tour group, so I did not use this, but the front desk said there was a shuttle available to downtown Florence. There were also table cards that mentioned pasta and pizza making classes and dinner in a traditional Chianti home. Service was friendly. Definitely plan to come back. Photos are from room 204.

What truly sets it apart is the view. From the terrace and dining room windows, the Tuscan countryside stretches across rolling hills, vineyards, and olive groves, turning the meal into something memorable. The menu focuses on classic Tuscan dishes...handmade pastas, rich ragùs, roasted meats, and seasonal ingredients...prepared with simplicity and care. The atmosphere is refined yet informal, with attentive service and an unhurried pace that encourages you to linger. Bel Soggiorno focuses on good food, spectacular scenery, and the kind of dining experience that makes Tuscany feel exactly the way you imagined it would.

We had heard great reviews about the restaurant- and we were able to get in the same day for lunch, despite no reservations. I ordered the homemade tagliatelle with beef ragu- the noodles were fresh and cooked to perfection, the beef ragu sauce had a good amount of meat, and was very flavorful. The best part about the restaurant is how FRESH everything is- you sit next to a garden and will actually see the chef go down and pick out fresh basil, kale, etc. for dishes on the menu. The tour itself was well organized, but seemed a little less personal than others I've been on (somewhat expected from larger wineries). I also found the 3 wines (Chianti) in the tasting to be "good", but not great. Eat beforehand because you get VERY few snacks that will not fill you up. The winery was HUGE and easy to see why they host weddings here- it was absolutely gorgeous and the landscaping was breath-taking. The views are outstanding and you won't be able to take enough pictures. You get a tour around the buildings, the room with the wine-making equipment, the wine barrels, and the garden- but you will not enter the vineyard. They gave a great little description of the history of the vineyard and the Villa (they have the official records to actually date the establishment), and I found it very interesting.

I stayed at four different hotels while traveling in Italy, and it's safe to say that Locanda Le…read morePiazze was the best hotel out of the bunch. There's a lot to say, so I'll try to break it up. Loction: Tuscany is overwhelming, but the hotel's location in Chianti is prime. You are only a 10-15 minute ride from Catellina which is a beautiful village with lots of restaurants and shops. You are also the same distance from several wineries. None are walkable, but because everything is so spread out that's probably tough to find anywhere. The hotel does have bikes, but just a warning that it's very tough to bike because of all the hills. Food & Drink: What you don't need to walk very far for is excellent food and drink. Breakfast is included in your stay and the spread is delicious. Lots of hot and cold options including eggs and bacon, meats and cheeses, fruits, pastries and oatmeal. There is also an incredible restaurant on the property (more on that in another review). It was so good that we ended up eating dinner there two out of three nights. Oh, and let's not forget the honors bar. The hotel has a few honors style bars set up throughout the property. Drawers and fridges full of every kind of wine, beer and liquor. Plus fixings to make cocktails and spritzes. All you'll need to do is write down how many you have and your room will be charged. The Grounds / Interiors: This is the best part about Locanda. The grounds are gorgeous. The rooms are impeccable. Every single inch of the space is thoughtfully designed, modern and perfect. Outside you'll find fresh plants and herbs, rolling hills and vineyards and the most gorgeous pool smack dab in the middle of it all. If we didn't have plans to hit wineries I honestly could have sat at that pool all day. Each day we got back to the hotel in the afternoon and spent hours relaxing and taking in the views. The rooms and all other interior space have the most whimsical decor -- I was a big fan of the dream catchers and artwork. Service: The service was on point the entire time. They really do their best to make you feel comfortable and like you are staying with family. At one point one of the groundskeepers was picking fresh figs and she even brought a bundle over to us straight from the tree. I can only dream about returning to this hotel again one day. If I ever find myself in Tuscany you can bet that this is where I'll stay.

Service: the staff is incredibly accommodating and friendly. They are truly locals and have great recommendations for restaurants, wineries, and activities to do in Toscana. Facility: we had room 1 which was basically an entire apartment equipped with a queen size bed, large spaced bathroom, a living room and kitchen. The decor is a bit medieval with large creaking wooden doors and a dark layout. There are many areas in this huge property: 1. the many many many rows of grapes lining the whole property on your left, right, front, back, etc. 2. There's an outdoor movie theater with bean bag chairs 3. The pool area (not heated) with plenty of chairs and umbrellas. A pool bar, a jacuzzi and a small gym with free weights. 4. A sauna 5. Farm animals: sheep, goats, roosters, ducks, rabbits, turkey, peacocks, goat, and alpacas! The alpacas, by the way, are brought over to their dining area every morning to join you while you eat, so you can pet and feed them! 6. Lastly, they have a wine shop at the base of the hill prior to entering the property where you can do a quick wine tasting. All in all, the facilities were impeccable. You can wake up early and go for a strenuous hike around the property, saying hi to all of the animals as you pass by. Then, you sit down for their buffet breakfast in their beautiful glass dining area where they cook the most delicious, soft, flavorful eggs I've ever had along with the assortment of breakfast pastries. Don't forget the alpacas! After, you can relax by the pool, jumping in when the sun gets a little too hot. Stroll through the vineyards, walk into town, or drive to neighboring wineries. Whatever you do, this hotel is the perfect place to situate yourself on your vacation in Toscana!
