Borgo Santo Pietro

We stayed for 4 nights in September at the Borgo Santo Pietro, and although it is in the middle of nowhere, that’s part of the appeal and charm. If you want to visit wineries in Montalcino, Montepulciano or Bolgheri, you have to have a car or a driver. Most of these areas are about an hour to 90 minutes away by car. We had a car and enjoyed driving around the Tuscan countryside. But, you are captive at the Borgo - there is nothing around - nowhere else to eat - but when the food, service, atmosphere, lodging, etc. is as spectacular as this place, you don’t need or want to go elsewhere. The Trattoria was our favorite, and the food, views, service and ambiance is thankfully still stuck in my head two weeks later. We ate there 3 nights and ate at the signature restaurant Meo Modo the other night. Everything we ate was a treat. You just could not go wrong with anything. Meo Modo probably needs a filet on the menu, as it is a bit fish heavy, but it was an incredible dining experience. The outside terrace overlooking the farm is indescribable. We are not easily impressed, but this place - Wow. The grounds are gorgeous and the rooms are unique and art in and of themselves. We stayed in the Vecchio Forno room which is a separate cottage near the main entrance. It’s amazing. Pictures do not do this place justice. Just go. We will be back.

Proceed with caution. Very dishonest business practices and unethical approaches. The company proclaim to be all about ethos but sadly this isn’t the case. We conducted business there in the form of a very expensive event and have been left owed a large sum of money and being ignored. I wouldn’t advise anyone to send any money in advance for rooms or any hire. The worst venue in 22 years of business and being ignored. I wouldn’t recommend this venue to anyone!

From the moment we arrived, we felt as though we stepped into a dream. This resort in Tuscany is a slice of paradise, where every corner exudes elegance and charm. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Ann at breakfast was polite, friendly, and fun. Lynn, another amazing person who added to Borgo's charm. Emanuel, Restaurant Manager was gracious, and ran a beautiful restaurant with farm to table top notch meals. The Front Desk Manager, so friendly, made a point to talk with us and make sure we were having a great time. This is truly one-of-a-kind resort. 4 nights was too short. It's a place to make memories that will last a lifetime!

How could one explain this hotel... it's a fairy tale-like setting! Rafaela, the cooking instructor and Noosheen really made our stay extra magical. The cooking class is a must and so is the flower workshop. Quite the definition of slow living and reconnecting in the middle of nowhere of beautiful Tuscany.

The website totally undersells this unique and remarkably beautiful property. The attention to detail and service are impeccable. The restaurants are tremendous. We had the best pizza of our lives, and the breakfasts are perfect. The estate and landscaping are simply beautiful. The combination of their obvious respect of Italian antiquities and great design in the refurbishing of the resort 15 years ago led to a beautiful property It may be one of the top 3 resorts that we've ever experienced, and we're very seasoned travelers. Yes, it's pricey, and sort of difficult to get to, and isolated, but it's worth it.
