Monteverdi Tuscany — Hotel in Unione dei Comuni Valdichiana Senese

Our group of 7 was fortunate to visit this stunning property to take part in Chef Giancarla’s wonderful cooking academy. I experienced responsive, professional and kind service throughout the process of arranging & attending our cooking class. After we arrived & were shown to the class, the concierge let us know that one of our vehicle tires unfortunately did not survive the gravel drive up to the property. They then arranged to have the flat tire fixed - handling it all while we continued to enjoy the cooking class. Simply outstanding service. Based on that and what we saw & experienced during the class, I have no doubt that guests of this resort must enjoy fabulously attentive & gracious service. We were lucky enough to tour the property after our cooking class.The grounds are amazing, offering some of the most beautiful vistas we saw during our exploration of Tuscany. The grounds and interiors are very obviously well cared for and offer many quietly beautiful places to gather or relax both indoors and out. Lastly, Chef Giancarla’s cooking academy was such an informative and fun experience. We rearranged other day trips in order to participate in this class and it was well worth it. Chef Giancarla is delightful and welcoming, while sharing her cooking knowledge and genius with the class. The meal that we helped create (with just the right amount of help from her and her team) was so delicious and enjoyed on a beautifully set outdoor dining table. It was the perfect way to spend our last day in Tuscany. Thank you so very much to the Monteverdi team and Chef Giancarla and her team for this experience. It was a beautiful gift to close out our...

This cannot be overstated - this is simply the best authentic, 5 star Tuscan experience that one can have. The hotel is a part of a hilltop village, both its center and an active member. It's a disperse hotel, taking up multiple beautifully preserved villas which are accessed by walking along manicured paths.

The hotel has an ancient church, now a gathering center as well, a boutique, a spa, a gym, two restaurants, three bar areas, and multiple indoor and outdoor lounge spaces.

Our room, not a suite, was spacious enough that we felt at home and relaxed for four nights. It was well laid out, with shower and other products. As with every single square meter of Monteverdi, it had an amazing view.

The spa was simply world class - the heated pool, multiple cold plunges, multiple saunas, and all services were well beyond our high expectations.

The infinity pool was not yet open as of 7 May, but it clearly provided an unparalleled view of the Tuscan countryside.

Finally, the staff are magnificent. Friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, they were an integral part of our amazing experience. We simply cannot wait...

staying at this property was a dream. hands down the most amazing hotel I have ever stayed at. the attention to detail, design, food and service were all equally outstanding. there is such peaceful, romantic ambience and I often daydream of being back here.

We unfortunately missed our first night due to a flight cancellation, and decided to extend a day to make up for it. The concierge was so kind to upgrade us to the honeymoon suite for our last night, free of charge, what a pleasant surprise. Huge shout out to Max, as he made it happen and just provided excellent friendly service our entire stay.

Also, the spa is a MUST. We didn't even book a service, just paid to do the spa circuit (cold plunge, sauna, relaxation room etc) and we were blown away.

I need to come back here one day. If you are on the fence about staying here... book it! Although I want to keep this place as a hidden gem. Lol

one helpful thing to note - if you are renting a car, make sure to rent a sturdy SUV. the roads are steep and gravel, and its tricky...
