Ten centuries of history radiate from the hand-hewn stone walls and terracotta floors at Tuscany's Castel Monastero, the centerpiece of a small medieval village called Monastero dell'Ombrone. The monastery first appeared in correspondence in 1044 in connection with the nearby Berardenga Abbey and over the centuries noble families transformed it into a castle. Thanks to painstaking restoration efforts, the ancient ambiance remains – guests from all over the world go for bespoke experiences, such as a Bentley ride through the Tuscan countryside.

We enjoyed our stay here. It’s a nice, secluded hotel with a great pool, spa, and gym area. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The first room we were given was beautiful, but at night we noticed tiny ants on the bed. Given the natural surroundings, it didn’t seem unusual. We called the front desk, and they quickly moved us to another room. The second room was perfectly clean and actually turned out to be better. It had views of both the hotel’s main entrance and the courtyard, and we preferred it because of its spacious, open layout compared to the first one. The hotel’s food was great, and the breakfast offered a good variety to start the day. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience.

Five star property - beautiful facilities and grounds with large comfortable rooms. One-star for lack of hospitality, passive-agressive front desk staff that regarded us with disdain, lack of concierge service, mediocre restaurant with limited hours, exorbitantly priced 25E cocktails with no food/snack service at the bar, over-priced pre-determined taxi fare and no shuttle to/from Siena. Breakfast was the one exception - plentiful with many varieties of tasty offerings, and pleasant wait staff. Castel Monastero is better suited for a special event buyout than it is for tourists. Recommend staying in Siena as you'll have a lot more options. September 2023.

Such a gorgeous Location. Magnificent Property. Fantastic food, especially Cantina, which is their Michelin Star resturant in the wine cellar. They have an Amazing Spa. I have 2 issues. The rooms are very dark & very cold. But I guess since it was a monastery, that the vibe...

The entire setting was magical. The hotel was previously a monastery, turned into a beautiful hotel. The rooms were spacious, well appointed and comfortable. The staff was outstanding and always helpful. The food and service was outstanding. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
