Find Romantic Hotels in Buonconvento

"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."

"Lovely garden area in the back with a view. Convenient location inside the medieval gate. Friendly staff. "

"The staff was very helpful, pleasant and spoke perfect English."

"Our second stay at CDV. Such a special place in Tuscany. The hotel has made many improvements since our last stay, and has nothing but 5 star amenities, the friendliest staff, and the incredible castle hotel with views of the Tuscan countryside. This is world class luxury. The spa is in a league of its own, the restaurant and chefs are making top quality cuisine. I can not wait to come back! "

"A comfortable place to stay while doing a solo cycling tour of Tuscany"

"Great breakfast"

"We greatly enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Athena, which had been recommended by a friend. Our room was clean and comfortable, with a gorgeous view of the Tuscan countryside. Great shower and nice bed. The staff we met were all extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast is a huge spread, with enough variety to satisfy everyone. Visitors to Siena should know that it is a very hilly town. The center is quite close to the hotel, but it's an uphill walk. Not too steep, but it will keep you in shape. Most hotels in town will have the same issue. It's so beautiful that it's well worth it. After a day of walking the town, it's a lovely downhill walk to the hotel."

"Amazing place. Great facilities. Quite. Good rooms. Easy 30min walk to old town. "
