This was an adorable property right in the middle of Montepulciano. The location was fantastic. It’s a quaint property with lots of character. The rooftop patio has phenomenal views. My only negative is the door situation. The door to the unit was a challenge every time and the door to the building was horrible. If two gentleman on the street hadn’t helped us we wouldn’t have been able to get into the building. If the door situation was fixed I would definitely stay here again.

The room was very nice. The parking was a bit difficult to find at first, but the staff did a wonderful job providing directions for us. The panoramic view on the rooftop was beautiful. Overall, a very pleasant and quaint place to stay in Montepulciano.

This property was incredible. We stayed in Suite Rosas and the view of the town as well as the rolling Tuscan hills was idealistic. To top it off there was an amazing rooftop with unobstructed views. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful historic residence
Beautiful and unique residence within the walled city. One of the most wonderfully historic stays I have experienced anywhere in the world! You must carry your luggage from the car park and up 3 flights of stairs, if you can do this you MUST stay here! Make sure to treat this historical residence with care, it is like staying in a museum!

Beautiful view from our room and above terrace was the highlight. We felt a total lack of communication with the hosts as they weren’t on property. The only person we really had contact with didn’t speak English. The hosts were friendly when we checked in, but never really checked on us to see if we needed anything.

Dear Barbara, as we told you at the check in, we we available for you anytime if you have call us. You didn't tell us that you need something, this is a B&B, not an hotel. We give privacy at the guest if they prefer it. I hope you have had a great experience despite that. Have a nice day

We have stayed at Residenza Fabroni before. This house is awesome. It gives you the feeling of living in another time where things move a bit more slowly and life can be enjoyed and savored. It is in a wonderful location. Things are clean and comfortable. Any time we are in Montepulciano, we will stay at Residenza Fabroni.

Amazing views
The room was ok with amazing views. Also had access to a great roof top patio. No tv in the room. Shower not really functional. Had to climb 5 large stair cases with luggage. Will not work for anyone with mobility issues. No staff on site after hours. Good location but very very difficult to find. I would pass on the breakfast as they just send you to a nearby restaurant anyway so you might as well select your own place to eat.

Liked: The rooftop deck was amazing! 360 view of the surrounding area. The place had character! it was furnished with old knicknacks, we got a 2 bedroom suite for the price of an average hotel. Its on the 3rd floor of an old palazzo. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. They also provided us a ride to the train station for half the price of a taxi the day we left. Caveats: if you are looking for a US style hotel and aren;t open to a different experience this may not be the place for you. Also if you are mobility challenged or have trouble with stairs for any reason be aware there is no lift and the stairs to the roof deck are quite steep and narrow. The only minor complaint we would have is that we couldn't find a light to go down the palace stairs when we left inn the dark, and the old style door was a bit difficult to get open. I'm sure if we'd texted the host he would have been able to tell us where the light switch was but i just turned on my phone light and went down and turned the light on from the bottom. All in all I highly recommend for families or friends traveling together. It's so nice to have that extra space and your own room.

A bit surprised by the glowing reviews
We chose this hotel because of the glowing reviews, but we were mostly unimpressed. I really don't understand what other travelers found so appealing, other than that the manager, Valentina, was very sweet and helpful. The furniture and furnishings in the hotel are quite old, but not old enough to be charming antiques. It is really in need of renovation. It was pretty inconvenient overall, with no wall switches in convenient locations, insufficient storage, lack of outlets for charging phones, etc. The bathroom had relatively old fixtures, and a couple of things in the room were not particularly well-maintained and needed repair. Breakfast was surprisingly sparse compared to all the other hotels we stayed at on our two-week trip in Italy. Be aware that you have to walk up several flights of stairs to get to the hotel. There is a furnished terrace on the roof with very nice views, however, I am very sound sensitive and the noise from the main road directly below the terrace definitely detracted from the experience of hanging out up there. One positive note is that the location was great, with interesting shops and restaurants right outside the door. We also greatly enjoyed meeting the other guests in the communal breakfast room.
Response from Valentina on Jun 14, 2018
Eric, I'm so sorry for your disappointment about your stay. I understand your disappointment about a couple of things that didn't work very good and I thank you for telling us. We have already replaced them. On the contrary, I found a little strange your disappointment about the furniture. Everything in the residence is the original furniture used by Fabroni family when they lived here more than 100 years old. All our guests appreciate and find it charming and we do our best to keep everything well maintained. Our breakfast too is really appreciate by our guests. We always serve a fresh and seasonal breakfast with a little bit of everything both sweet and savory among which fresh croissants, jams, pecorino cheese and cold cuts, eggs. I don't really know what it is missing in our breakfast. Regarding the flight of stairs, all the guests are aware of this because it is written in all the websites and every time I receive a reservation it is my concern to remind it to all my guest. We are in an historical palace dating back to the XVII century and of course we don't have a lift but the four flight of stairs worth it for the charming of our palace and the breathtaking view you can enjoy from our roof terrace. I'm sorry you didn't even appreciate our terrace. We are in the main street of the historical town, it's inevitable to hear a little bit of noise during the day, but we are very high and this has never bothered our guest. On the contrary, our roof terrace is the most appreciate place of our residence. We always do our best to make our guest feel at home and enjoy an unforgettable experience. We are really sorry we failed with you. All the best, Valentina

Wonderful views from a beautiful place
We were only in Montepulciano 1 day but we enjoyed our stay in Residenza Fabroni very much. Great location with wonderful views of the Tuscan landscape. The scenes from our windows and the rooftop patio were amazing! The inside has been kept very close to how it looked in the early 1900's but still offers the needed conveniences. Valentina was friendly and helped us with all are travel planning needs before and during our stay. And the town is fantastic. We will definitely plan on visiting Montepulciano again, but for more than 1 day.

Residenza Fabroni is a delight. The building is amazing and beautiful; the views from the terrace of Val D'Orcio are stunning. The service (and especially Ombretta) is exceptional. You feel like you are staying in her care. She is a wonderful host and her presence makes the house feel even warmer than it already is. I highly recommend Residenza Fabroni for multiple reasons

An unexpected surprise.
When we arrived ,we discovered that the accomodation has new owners and they were not expecting us. The 2 sisters were wonderful hosts and accepted us into their home, which we had totally to ourselves being the only current guests. We felt at home and they were so helpful with making our stay such a pleasure.They offered a Hugh buffet breakfast of homemade and local items, had wine and other beverages for purchase, and even washed some of our clothes. Our private parking spot worked out great and the rooftop view and terrace were a great spot for an afternoon Brunello from a local winery. We had a fabulous experience in Montepulciano thanks to Ombretta , and Angela .

Situato in posizione da 10, in pieno centro di Montepulciano e vicino ad un parcheggio a pagamento, in un palazzo stupendo con un atrio ampio, scale imponenti, gentili i proprietari anche se non li abbiamo conosciuti perchè abbiamo fatto tutto a mezzo telefono, però devo dire che la suite in se ci ha un po' deluso, non ci ha dato l'effetto WOW. A ns. avviso andrebbero effettuati degli interventi perchè ha un potenziale enorme ma non sfruttato a pieno.

Esta propiedad no solo es la mejor de Montepulciano sino de toda la Toscana! Atención excelente! La persona que nos recibía nos guió en todo a través de texto, nos recomendó restaurantes, parqueaderos, nos dio descuentos para comer. Adicional a esto, la habitación es gigante, una suite con 2 habitaciones, puedes disponer de toda la propiedad, que tiene una sala hermosa y una terraza con una vista espectacular. Está ubicada en todo el corazón de Montepulciano, una edificación de 1600 y en perfectas condiciones. Te dan el desayuno en un café cercano que es antiguo, hermoso y con una vista divina. Viajamos por 10 días en Italia y este fue el mejor hotel de todos! Nos encantó!!

No tienen idea con quien trabajan y que ofrecen!
Habitacion muy bonita , con vistas increíbles, el desayuno fue muy bueno.Pero todo esto pierde su valor por la mala administración que tienen. Hice la reserva para este hotel a través de la app de Hoteles.con, dicha reserva incluía aparcamiento gratis, desayuno e incluso una bebida de bienvenida. Pero el día de llegada y después de recibir varias preguntas por parte del hotel acerca de la hora de llegada e información del parking y el costo, les llamo para aclarar lo del parking ya que había comprado un paquete que incluía parking gratis, y la mujer con la que hablé fue poco profesional , primero me dijo que ellos NO trabajaban con hoteles.com y que nunca ofrecían parking gratis y mucho menos una bebida de bienvenida, insinuando que yo no era lo suficientemente lista y entendiera que era un B&B y lo de una bebida de bienvenida era ilógico, a lo que dije que yo no tenía idea los acuerdos que ellos hacían con sus colaboradores, finalmente me dijo que lo único incluido era el desayuno y lo demás NO ERA SU PROBLEMA, y luego de una irritante conversación le dije que iba a hablar con hoteles y que de todas maneras les iba a enviar fotos de la reserva que hice lo que incluía. Después de perder varias horas intentando contactar con hoteles, de que me dañaran un día de viaje, recibí un Whatsaap de este hotel diciendo: Bienvenidos, su reserva incluye parking gratis y puede elegir una bebida entre agua o refresco . Y ahora lo único que les interesaba era una hora exacta de llegada

Estimada Lina, lamento que haya malentendido las cosas. Nosotros queriamos saber su horario de llegada porque debido a que es un bed and breakfast no tenemos la recepcion abierta las 24 hs, por lo cual era importante para nosotros estar alli para cuando ustedes llegaran, y asi poder brindarles la mejor atencion. Tambien les he solicitado si podian enviarme la foto del servicio que habian pagado ( ese servicio hace mucho tiempo que no lo ofrecìamos) debido a que en ese momento yo no podia verlo ya que no estaba en la oficina. Le explicado tambièn que el parking esta fuera del bed and breakfast pero muy cerca, porque estamos en centro històrico y no se puede aparcar en la puerta. Debo destacar que cuando la he llamado, apenas inicio la conversaciòn usted hablò muy enojada y casi gritando diciendo que les habian vendido habitaciòn con estacionamiento, por lo cual le explicado lo que comentè con anterioridad. Es muy importante escuchar sin agredir para que lo que se intenta comunicar se entienda correctamente. Ademàs les he dicho que el desayuno lo tenian incluido, que no se preocupen por el parking, que me envien la foto de lo que compraron ( que me enviaron muchisimo tiempo despues) y que iban a recibir lo que estaba incuido sin ningun problema, incluso cuando han llegado les hemos dado una bebida de bienvenida. Es importante destacar que han pagado la habitacion con un 50 % de descuento del precio normal y aun asi recibieron todo. Por ese motivo considero que siempre se puede hablar bien y con respeto, mas aun si el personal llama con la intenciòn de que ustedes lleguen bien, tengan una buena estadia. Ademas accedemos a darles los servicios aun cuando todavia no nos habian enviado las fotos de comprobante. Le deseamos mucha paz
