Precise Tale Poggio alla Sala

Staying at Precise Tale Poggio Alla Sala was not just a vacation—it was a transformative experience that fully immersed us in the beauty, charm, and elegance of Tuscany. I’ve stayed in many high-end hotels across Europe, but this one easily ranks among the absolute best. Every single detail—from the grand architecture to the smallest amenities—was thoughtfully curated and flawlessly executed. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was exceptional. We were welcomed with refreshing drinks and a gorgeous platter of fresh, seasonal fruits, which immediately gave us the feeling that we were in for something special. The check-in process was smooth, warm, and professional—offering a perfect balance of efficiency and personalized attention. Our deluxe room was absolutely massive, filled with natural light and tastefully furnished with a mix of classic Tuscan style and modern luxury. One of the highlights was the huge window that opened up to an awe-inspiring panoramic view of the Tuscan countryside—rolling hills, olive groves, and cypress trees bathed in golden sunlight. Every morning we woke up to this incredible vista, and it truly never got old. The bed was incredibly comfortable, with high-quality linens and pillows that made it hard to leave each morning. The spa bathroom in our room was equally impressive—spacious, beautifully designed, and stocked with ETRO toiletries that added an extra touch of luxury. The water pressure was excellent, the tub was deep and relaxing, and everything was sparkling clean throughout our stay. The restaurant and dining rooms were another standout. The food was truly exceptional—flavorful, beautifully presented, and deeply connected to local Tuscan ingredients and traditions. And the frescoed ceilings in the dining area created a stunning, almost regal atmosphere that turned every meal into an event. The staff was knowledgeable about the wine pairings and happy to recommend dishes. The spa facilities are among the best I’ve experienced in any hotel. Spacious, elegant, and fully equipped, the spa offers a full menu of treatments, steam rooms, saunas, and tranquil relaxation areas. We also used the gym, which was clean, modern, and had everything needed for a full workout. Service throughout the hotel was exceptional. The staff were kind, respectful, and incredibly attentive—offering what I can only describe as butler-level service without ever being intrusive. Every request was met promptly, and the housekeeping staff ensured our room was spotless each day. The hotel is perfectly situated for exploring the heart of Tuscany. Within short driving distance, we visited Montepulciano, Pienza, Montalcino, and several vineyards. It’s a dream base for day trips, and yet the property is so tranquil and beautiful that returning each day felt like coming home to a private estate. Precise Tale Poggio Alla Sala doesn’t just meet expectations; it exceeds them in every way. If you’re looking for a luxurious, unforgettable Tuscan getaway that combines history, comfort, beauty, and impeccable service, this is the place. I give it my highest and most enthusiastic recommendation, and I cannot wait to return.

No idea why this has a low rating, must have had some issues to iron out post the refurb. Well they have certainly ironed them out this is a top 3 hotel I’ve stayed in globally behind Airelles Gordes and Grand Tritone Amalfi but not far behind. Had stayed at Como Castello Del Nero for twice the price before coming here and this is leagues ahead. Staff are professional, pools and bar service unbelievable, breakfast best I’ve ever seen and restaurant is 10/10. Sauna and spa is amazing also. One of the best hotels in the world, check the most recent reviews and ignore the older ones.

Amazing food and surroundings, very kind staff, we watched the blood moon together. Lovely champaigns, all was good! Fresh, homemade, 10 out of 10

The lattes and Americanos were warm. It took 1.5 hours to get a pizza at the poolside. Kids everywhere. Cigars from three nights ago still in the ashtrays outside. The Ukrainian staff were so rude and abrupt.

This five-star hotel embodies the ultimate luxury experience, fulfilling every expectation in terms of facilities, accessibility, rooms, dining, and service. As if invited to a private residence, you pass through an elegantly tranquil gate and drive down a tree-lined path. After a short drive, the beautiful hotel building that harmonizes with the surrounding scenery emerges—on both sides of the avenue, vineyards bathed in the morning and evening sun shimmer beautifully, evoking the feeling of stepping into a Tuscan masterpiece. The hotel's establishment is flawless, with the main hotel building, restaurant, pool, fitness, children's playground, and walking paths for fluffy friends all thoughtfully arranged. The beauty of the surroundings is undeniably captivating. But beyond the exceptional facilities, the staff—including front desk personnel, restaurant service teams (managed separately from the hotel), kitchen staff, and every employee encountered—delivers heartfelt, high-quality service. During our stay, which coincided with the Easter holiday, many young Italian families were visiting. As a thoughtful gesture, children received football-sized chocolates. Since our daughter, now 29, got married two years ago, instead of chocolate, we received a beautifully wrapped and remarakably large, Colomba Pasquale. This hotel is not just a place to stay—it’s a place where staying has true meaning. Whether you love indulgent travel or seek heartwarming service, I wholeheartedly recommend this luxurious establishment with absolute confidence.
