Il Rondo Boutique Hotel

Very nice boutique B&B located just outside Montepulciano. Rooms are nicely appointed and quite. Family business and they are very friendly and service oriented. The family home is adjacent to the building housing rooms and the garden is beautiful! the walk to Montepulciano is a uphill for about 10 minutes but after a few times you get used to it. Besides Montepulciano itself is all uphill so its good training for the walking in the city.

We spent 10 days here in mid-May at the end of our 5 weeks in Italy. We had heard raving reviews about ll Rondo through a work acquaintance of our daughter’s, and we are so glad we took their advice! Nicolo, along with his parents (both of whom speak very little English) were some of the hardest working people we have ever seen! As has been mentioned by others, the gardens are phenomenal. My wife and I pride ourselves on our yard but they put us to shame. After serving breakfast, mom and dad were literally working outside all day and into the evening, and it shows. Be sure to allow some time to sit and relax in the garden with your itinerary and/or a glass of wine. We first stayed in the garden bedroom and then moved into one of the 2-bedroom suites when our daughter and fiance joined us, where we had our own living room. We can certainly say that all 3 bedrooms that we had access to over our time there were clean, roomy with plenty of storage, decorated beautifully, and very comfortable. The breakfast selection was by far the best of the 3 B&Bs we stayed at in Italy. The service was also wonderful! Nicolo’s suggestions on places to go were perfect, and he made our dinner reservations also. This is a very central location for driving throughout Tuscany and some of Umbria. Our first day going into the old town of Montepulciano we purchased bus tickets to the top and back. We never used the return ticket and never purchased any others. I am 72 and my wife is 65, and the walk up the hill was no problem. Making the leisurely walk up and down all the streets of the town is how we saw the many sights, many of which are not at the top anyway. We would definitely stay here again and recommend using it as a home base to explore Tuscany. If you only stay here 1 or 2 nights, you will wish you stayed longer!

Beautiful place , sadly we stayed only one night. We enjoyed the environment, beautiful garden, the property was very well mantained. Lovely and elegant rooms. Everything was very clean. Nice attentive owners. Great breakfast buffet, high quality products , beautiful dinning style. Ackermann family

I stayed in the two room suite on the second floor. It was so beautiful. We were able to sit on the balcony at night and view the stars. This was a family run business and the staff was so helpful. The breakfast was delicious too. The hotel was so close to Montepulciano. We were able to walk into town and back no problem. I will definitely rely be returning here.

My wife and I stepped into the hotel and the air was so full of BO that we turned around, lost the $130 we had paid for the room and left behind crowded, touristy Montepulciano for an agritourismo. The place struck me as not clean enough and it is down a long hill out of town so you must drive through narrow windy unpaved roads to get there. You have been warned.

We spent three nights, here as a base for exploring the hill top towns of Tuscany/Umbria. Lovely room, and breakfast, our only gripe was the hardness of the pillows! Otherwise this is lovely place to stay.

We spent five nights here last month on our tour of Tuscany. We mainly booked here because of location and parking. Hotel was nice, our room was a good size with plenty of storage. Breakfast was more than enough to get the day started. Surrounded by well maintained gardens which was nice to sit out with a glass of wine after a busy days touring. The owners and their son were really nice and hospitable. Hotel is in a quiet location with a less than 10 minute walk to the walls of the Town (Helpful Hint) Take the five minute up to the bus station and buy a ticket for the mini bus up to the top of Montepulciano for €1.20 which we did most nights when going out for dinner. Would definitely recommend this hotel when staying in Montepulciano.
