During my stay at this Tuscan hotel, I was truly captivated by the stunning views and the excellent service provided by the staff. My room, while a bit on the smaller side, offered a breathtaking view of the valley and was very comfortable. The dining experience was a highlight, with a delicious breakfast spread that catered to various tastes. However, the spa facilities were not as impressive as I had hoped, lacking the full experience expected from a spa resort., Overall, I would recommend this hotel for its beautiful ambiance and attentive service, though the spa could greatly improve.

While I really had high hopes for my stay at the Renaissance Tuscany, I found it somewhat lacking in several areas. The picturesque setting and decent dining options were highlights, but the service fell short, especially for what was supposed to be a special occasion. The remote location is beautiful but comes with the downside of limited access to nearby attractions without incurring extra costs.
