Find hotels near Altesino, Montalcino

"This "hotel" is actually a small ancient village that's been restored as a resort. It's extraordinary, though keep in mind that you'll walk outside to go to the restaurants, the lobby, etc. We absolutely loved this. Our suite had a massive patio and amazing sunset views, though our west-facing view was just trees and not the quintessential Tuscan farmland and rolling-hills view; for that you will want a suite in Alto-Borgo, the slightly uphill part of the resort with perfect southeast-facing views. The downside is those rooms are a 10 min walk from the restaurants and main part of the resort, whereas the original suites are right in the village. Oh, and by "village" I don't mean tourists and shops. There aren't any. Zero. It's totally private. And it's not near anything, so no security issues or lookieloos at all. This is a UNESCO site and so they could not build anything new, but only remodel whatever was already there. First surprise is that the road to get there is dirt. Due to UNESCO they can't pave it. Though some small sections of the ancient stone road remain, it's 99% dirt for several kilometers. A couple of disappointments are the main restaurant and the concierge service. The main, Michelin-starred restaurant is great for breakfast, but according to many guests we spoke to it's a let-down for dinner. However the Osteria restaurant is great, and dining at the golf club is good for pizza night. The concierge issues were perplexing for such an amazing resort."

"Beautiful"

"Wonderful stay with great food, peaceful infinity pool, and beautiful views. Access to the spa was a nice touch. "

"This was our second stay at Podere Cunina and was simply wonderful - again! The property is STUNNING with magical views of both sunset and sunrise each day. As a flower lover, I absolutely love all the diversity of the landscaping - everything was in bloom and beautiful! The hosts are so lovely - with warm greetings and advice. It’s a great middle point to visit all of Tuscany. Really gives you the feel of living the Italian villa lifestyle. We hope to be back soon!"

"Convenient for the Via Francigena. Effective aircon. Perfectly adequate breakfast "

"Great service and very clean rooms"

"Fulvia was a great host. Place is close to everything. She let us check in early. Breakfast was not onsite but there are 2 places down the road to chose from for the included breakfast. Highly recommend this place. "

"My wife Joanne and I stayed at this magical place on the hillside of Montalcino for three nights. Fabio was an excellent host and helpful at all times with any questions and was always up for a chat. The cakes, coffee and other breakfast selections were awesome. We also enjoyed being able to play with lily as we were missing our dog back home. Thanks Fabio to you, your husband and the dogs for an unforgettable time. Grazie! Louie and Joanne"

"We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Podere Cunina and would thoroughly recommend to anyone wanting to enjoy the stunning unspoilt Tuscan scenery with the most amazing 360 degree views from the pool/shared grounds that really take your breath away. The surrounding area has so much to see and do, all within 30 mins to 1 hr away and Siena is very accessible for an afternoon/evening (35 mins by car). We were only there for 5 nights/4 days and could have stayed much longer as it was such a great location. Silvana and her husband Giorgio were very warm and welcoming and gave great advice on where to visit. We'd love to visit again someday!"
