Find the Cheap Osteria Delle Noci Hotels

Our stay at La Chiusa Boutique & Restaurant was fantastic. The place had a great pool, and the surroundings were ideal for pure relaxation and vacation. Our room was super, and the restaurant served the best food. Every evening was a completely unique experience where both the food and the wine were fantastic. An explosion of different flavors. All the staff from those at the reception, to the staff in the restaurant both for the evening and breakfast were so nice and helpful. We sat and ate under the chestnut trees, which in the evening were lit up, and had the most amazing view. We were treated like VIP by the staff. We can only give La Chiusa Boutique & Restaurant our warmest recommendations for a fantastic holiday where relaxation and pampering are the key words.

Once we arrived at the property, we were greeted by Giuseppe, the owner and Bertina, the manager. Both were so kind and welcoming and we were told to relax! We got settled into our room with king sized bed and updated bathroom. The bed was very comfortable with nice linens. The breakfast was included each day and included a nice variety of eggs, meats, cheeses, pastries, coffee, espresso, cappucino, juices, etc. We went on a wine tour throughout the countryside to Montepulciano, Montalcino and Pienza -highly recommend this tour. We learned so much about wines from our tour guide, Giuseppe. We purchased wines from each winery, including Santo Pietro and they arranged to ship them to our home for us. Spend some time in one or all of these villages! The next day we went on a truffle hunt at the property followed by a cooking class. Both were delightful and enjoyable activities. The restaurant has great farm to table food. The staff is very professional and most were English-speaking. I cannot say enough about Giuseppe and Bertina-they went above and beyond for us to make our stay as comfortable as possible! Sorry we didn't stay longer here because we had booked further time in Rome. We would highly recommend Tenuta Santo Pietro and hope to return there again someday!

Loved the idyllic landscape and old world architecture. The staff were friendly and helpful with information. The place seems remote surrounded by the Tuscan countryside, although the town of Sinalunga is just a few minutes drive away. A car is recommended. Towns of Pienza and Montepulciano are only 20-25 minutes drive. The place is in a different world, and that is part of its charm. The reception and rooms are quite spread out, so it will not be a typical hotel experience where you roll your luggage into the elevators or have ice machines down the hall. For me that, that made it even more special, but maybe not for those who prefer a little more western style convenience. That being said, the facilities are surprisingly modern.

The Locanda di CasalMustia is located in a nice little hilltop town in the Tuscan countryside. Really need a car or scooter to get there because of it's distance from railway stations and the apparent lack of an obvious taxi service (a joining friend arriving via rail in Trequanda got a lift from a local). Once in Castelmuzio however, parking is free and there are a number of parking spots in and around the town. The town itself has a coop (little supermarket/grocery store - hours vary by day), ATM and a few restaurants and bars, the most prominent of which belongs to the CasalMustia. For anything else then Pienza (recommended) is a short distance away and has lots of amenities. Hotel itself is ideal for a short stay and as a base from which to explore the surrounding countryside before moving on to Siena, Perugia etc. We stayed for three nights and our room was tidy with comfy beds. Staff kept it clean with a daily service throughout our stay. Bathroom compact but good shower. Also had an AC which was a lifesaver in early September. One point on rooms is guests should try to get one facing away from the church tower - there's a frequent church bell which can be loud if you're facing it. Plentiful buffet breakfast (included in our price) is served downstairs in a quirky little restaurant. They offer everything from meats and cheeses through to different cereals along with juices, tea and coffee. The restaurant also does some very good food during the day and evening which isn't included but definitely worth a try. English skills of the staff ranges but we were able to convey almost everything either verbally or by sign language / Google translate, and they were generally helpful throughout. All in all, when you take into account the location, rooms, inclusions and quality of service, I'd say it's a very good budget to mid-range hotel considering the average price / night in the surrounding area.
