Locanda le Piazze

The property is beautiful, quiet and true bliss.

This property is an absolute dream! It is gorgeous, has amazing views & an incredible staff. We rented e-bikes one day to explore surrounding wineries/vineyards which was fun (but tougher than expected). The restaurant is pricey but very good. We also had a rental car & were able to explore the town of Castellina in Chianti which was very cute & great cheaper food too. The rooms at the hotel are very spacious.

It's hard not to feel like you're in a movie as you drive through the seemingly endless and breathtaking hills of Tuscany as you approach Locanda Le Piazze. And from the moment you arrive at Locanda Le Piazze, you will marvel over every single charming detail and relaxing atmosphere. From the truly astonishing views of surrounding wineries that go on forever to idyllic property you get to call home, the rustic yet modern rooms and cozy setting. Each member of the hotel staff was absolutely wonderful, extremely helpful, friendly and will quickly know you by name. The hotel also has an adorable group of kittens on staff, who will delight you with their playful energy and curious nature. We stayed in an executive suite for three nights but would have happily stayed for three months. Our room was truly stunning with lots of space and the view from our bedroom window was truly unbelievable, photos just couldn't do it justice. Our room had all the amenities one could want and the staff kept our room and the entire hotel immaculately clean. While the wifi connection wasn't very strong, it was good enough and gave us a reason to leave our phones behind. It's impossible to describe how stunning the property is. Locanda Le Piazze gives you the best of both worlds - not only are the hotel grounds exceptional but the property is literally surrounded by picture-perfect views that are exactly what you think of when you think of a Tuscan vacation. We canceled our plans one afternoon to spend a slow day at the hotel by the pool and it was our favorite day! Photos really undersell how lovely Locanda Le Piazze really is. The breakfast included at the hotel is great and we made sure to go every morning. The hotel has a good selection of wines and cocktails that we enjoyed before dinner, though we decided to have lunch and dinner at nearby restaurants throughout our stay. While the restaurant seemed very popular and nice, we had so much fun going to places recommended by the lovely front desk staff. We also found some of the best spots on Google. We ventured into the town of Castellina in Chianti but there's not much there and we enjoyed the restaurants on the way to or shortly passed town. From the moment we arrived to when it was time to say our goodbyes, we were overcome by the magic of Locanda Le Piazze. We can't wait to go back!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. This hotel is absolutely stunning, nestled within the countryside of Tuscany. The entire estate is so well landscaped and laid out perfectly. You truly feel like you are at a resort. The service is amazing from front desk to bar & restaurant. Everyone speaks English and is happy to help/accommodate whatever you need. The food is some of the best I have ever had. My husband and I ate at the restaurant all 3 nights for dinner while we stayed at the hotel. We enjoyed the 5 course menu on our first night but quickly found the A La Carte restaurant to be our favorite with tons of different options. The spaghetti is the best I have ever had. A lot of the food is sourced from the farm surrounding the hotel - we saw them harvesting from their garden before dinner would start. Their estate wine and olive oil is fantastic. Pool is beautiful and surrounded with nice outdoor furniture. The pool bar is also open serving drinks and food - it was too cold to go in the pool when I arrived but my husband and I grabbed a blanket and some drinks and sat to take in the views. The bar inside serves all different cocktails and the estate's wine - which is delicious. We had drinks in the bar every night we stayed - which was also a fun way to meet other guests. The hotel has board games and books to also occupy you! Rooms were large and clean. Beautiful views from the windows. And if that wasn't enough - my husband and i rented a car from Florence to Tuscany and got a flat tire on our way back to the hotel. The staff at the front desk helped speak to international roadside assistance and the tow truck when it arrived in Italian to help translate the situation. The situation was beyond chaotic and the hotel went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled. They even helped book us a private transfer back to Florence with a ~12 hour notice.

We recently stayed here a few nights while visiting Tuscany. The hotel was recommended by a friend who had honeymooned here last year. What a gorgeous place! The staff is very friendly and welcoming. They obviously want their guests to have a wonderful experience. They only have about 20 rooms so it doesn't feel at all crowded. The rooms are beautiful and extremely comfortable. The views, especially from the pool, are incredible! The food and wine are delicious! The lasagne was the best I have ever had in my life! Hopefully we will return some day for another wonderful stay!
