Relais Poggio Borgoni

Very disappointing: the room has mold (I have asthma, so it was a real challenge), the AC did not work properly, breakfast is far from “excellent”, the restaurant is open only for dinner, except Wednesdays, when it is closed. You cannot eat there unless the owner (very rude person) allows you, otherwise you have to drive somewhere else or fast. The pool is dirty (see photos), during our 6 days stay it was never cleaned. We left as soon as we managed to find another option. Don’t recommend.

Wow! We spent 5 days at this amazing place. All the staff are genuinely so friendly and make you feel so welcome and at ease from the moment you arrive. The views are beautiful and you really are blown away but the fabulous setting. We were warmly welcomed by Francesco who showed us to our room. We stayed in a superior room (4) this was a lovely room, with a nice bathroom. There is good aircon and a mini bar. (The room is made up daily) We headed straight to the terrace and had a few drinks and soaked up the Tuscan sun and view. The views really are great! The pool is a great size and you can enjoy the peace and quiet there. The restaurant!!! 5 star food and 5 star service. The chefs will cook truly lovely food with fresh local produce to a really high standard. Every meal we had was gorgeous. Now, the true gem of this place for us was Claudia, she looked after us each night and made our stay extra special with her warmth and kindness. She is amazing!!! And she introduced me to Grappa thank you Claudia. Breakfast, fab! Looked after so well by the lovely lady who makes the best coffee! Amazing view from the terrace if the weather allows. Honestly I cannot fault the Poggio Borgoni at all. We were looked after so well and made to feel at ease and welcome. The food and wine is brilliant and service is great. We will be back. We are so grateful to everyone at the Poggio for an amazing stay. Thank you.

We stayed for 4 nights at the beginning of April at this lovely small site. The light rain and early spring fresh air that welcomed us at the first moment, create a wow response. It was beyond our expectation. We liked everything. The welcoming, the traveling tips from the staff, the conversations with Francesco and the other staff members. Sitting outside in the morning or at the end of a long day trip overlooking at the beautiful valley below was a great experience as well. The location and the site character enabled us the have true Tuscan experience we were looking for. Thanks very much to you Francesco and your staff.

We don't usually write reviews, but for Poggio Borgoni we want to make an exception. For us, Poggio Borgoni was the true Tuscan (holiday) experience we were looking for: a beautiful location with a great view and pool, where the scent of lavender and thyme makes you forget about the daily rat race and makes you wonder about a simpler life. The food is prepared with fresh, local products & accompanied with quality wine (which they make from their own harvest). Again, this all with a priceless view on Tuscan valley. The Staff is polite and helpful; when our Vespa broke down during the Chianti tour, they even went out of their way to pick us up. They deserve the full 5 star review & we recommend this place to everybody that wants to escape reality under the bright Italian sun. Keep doing what you're doing! Greets, Dageraad & Tom
