Villa del Borgo

The history of Villa del Borgo is linked with the history of the Chianti wine. The first historical records date back to the 18th century, when in 1773 after a visit to the Chianti region the Duke who was traveling the area wrote about the owning family and the fascinating culture and wine of the region. Halfway between Florence and Siena, Villa del Borgo is located in the heart of the Chianti Classico wine region just outside of the medieval town centre of one of the most picturesque villages of the area. The Hotel and large wine estate have been carefully restored preserving the ancient architectural features. Accommodations consist of 40 rooms divided into suites with terraces and standard rooms located throughout the main building and annex overlooking the valley. The guestrooms, furnished with antiques are equipped with private bath, air-conditioning, satellite TV, and telephone. Suites include Jacuzzis. Dining at Villa del Borgo leaves nothing left to be desired as the traditional Tuscan cuisine is prepared with care according to the seasons and natural products of the area. Along with the restaurant is a small, but furnished, wine cellar that will let you choose between a selection of more than 300 labels of local and Italian wines. Whether you are eating breakfast on the panoramic terrace overlooking the spectacular views of the Tuscan landscape, enjoying the heated pool with large solarium, or relaxing in the cozy lounges complete with fireplaces, you are sure to leave relaxed, refreshed, and ready to return.
