The hotel did not inform in advance that there was no parking lot. The room was very dark, and the beams had burnt marks, making it quite eerie. The toilet seat was broken and the single chair was so stained that I didn't dare to sit on it. Because there is no dressing table, I opened the bedside drawer and found that it was also full of dust and hair, which was not hygienic. Shocked, if this is considered a four star hotel. The breakfast was acceptable and the staff were very friendly. The hotel is located in the center of the town. In fact, the town is so small that you can explore it in an hour. All in all, I would definitely not stay here if I had to choose again.
I won't recommend this '4 stars hotel'.

Great location in the middle of the old town and great value for money. We had a great stay and enjoyed it very much.

I was feeling sick and was on the verge of catching a cold, so I headed to the hotel early. Although other guests were allowed to check in early, I was made to wait because the cleaning wasn't done yet. The woman in charge, Ellie, was very rude and didn't let me into my room even at 3 o'clock.
The woman who told me about the bus timetable was kind.
The room was small with no view (I wish they would specify this when choosing the room).
The only amenities were soap and shower caps provided, and there was not even a kettle. The heating was not turned on and it was very cold because it was on the mountain.
When I went to the front desk to borrow a kettle, the woman said that it should be in the room, and if there wasn't, I could just get a cup of hot water at the restaurant, so they wouldn't lend it to me.
It was so cold that I caught a cold, so I was in trouble because I wanted to boil water in the kettle and drink hot tea several times.
The staff at the restaurant were all very kind, and when I said I had a sore throat, they shared some honey with me.
There were many options for breakfast, and the view from the restaurant was beautiful.
It was a good price, but if you expect a 4-star hotel, you will be disappointed.
There are plenty of other hotels in Pienza that are cheaper and have better views.

Outstanding
Posted on Aug 26, 2023
Structure in the historic center of Pienza created from an old monastery, service and hospitality at the top, the rooms should only be equipped with a few more 4-star accessories (courtesy kit, slippers, bathrobe) but otherwise a truly enchanting place. Swimming pool with breathtaking views, internal restaurant with service and customer care at the highest levels (well done to all the guys and the owner) even if used only for an aperitif, fantastic breakfast with many local products. Absolutely to return.
We were on a 3 1/2 day bike tour around Tuscany, and the outfitter uses this hotel. We did not have a car; we came and went by bike. We stayed two nights. I am surprised by the negative reviews. Our experience was excellent. The rooms were modest and comfortable. We had an incredible view of the Val d’Orcia, unexpected and wonderful! Comfortable beds. Good shower. Good bathroom and sink. Quiet. Elevator up to our 3rd floor room was super convenient. Staff at front desk and breakfast room were friendly, efficient, helpful. Breakfast was included for us and it was good, plus they make you cappuccino on demand! I loved that it was a cloister and I loved the front and back patios. If you are looking for luxury space, I see they have some larger rooms, and maybe those don’t rise to meet expectations, but our experience was great. We needed a comfortable quiet place to sleep before and after biking, and this fit the bill. If I planned to spend a lot of time in the room, it may not work as well. I would stay here again.

We had a great time at the hotel. We stayed here for a few nights at the beginning of our trip to Tuscany. It has a great charm (albeit not a full modern spec) but we enjoyed it. Staff are friendly, breakfast is great and the pool is excellent - especially in Pienza. We didn't eat at the restaurant, but the menu looked good - there are lots of other great places nearby.
Response from Property: Dear Guest, thank you for your kind review. We are happy that you liked our hotel and the wonderful swimming pool with a amazing view and that you also appreciated our breakfast. We hope to welcome you again next time. Best Regards,
