Massimo Priore, Operations Manager, thank you for making my birthday so special. The suite was astonishing, and the views of the vineyards were breathtaking. It was the perfect place to celebrate such a special occasion. Your generosity and attention to detail did not go unnoticed. Thank you again for everything! I recommended my sister to celebrate her birthday in October, and once again they were given the royal treatment by Massimo and all of the magnificent staff at Castello di Velona. Everything was perfect, the suite decor, the Spa, the thermal waters, the private wine tasting, helicopter ride. Everything Castello di Velona has to offer is simply splendid.

Loved it! The view is amazing. all amenities are there to help you like they helped us when all pubs around were closed and we needed to cook. Thanks to the shop in town we got some very good italian ingredients and made excellent pasta. With a good wine and an awesome view there is nothing else needed there.

Wow! Where do we begin... This was our 3rd time staying in Montalcino, but only our first time staying at Dimore della Muse, and we are so happy that we did. We wish that we discovered Dimore della Muse sooner. Not only was this our best stay ever in Montalcino, this was our favorite hotel/B&B that we have ever stood at anywhere in the world.  From the moment we booked our reservation online, we knew that we had made the right decision. After booking our reservation, Sara and Michele, the husband and wife team who own Dimore delle Muse emailed us almost immediately to confirm our booking, thank us for choosing to stay here, and provided an extensive list of things to do and see in the area while visiting Montalcino. This was not your typical automated booking confirmation email that most hotels send out. This was highly personalized, and was most definitely not an automated email. The suggestions were not your typical suggestions that you would find in a brochure or by doing a quick Google search online, they were a well thought out, personalized and diverse list of activities that offered something for everyone. It included restaurants, wineries, beautiful towns to visit and sites to see, some of which are very close by and some of which made for a beautiful short road trip about 45 minutes away. All of their recommendations were outstanding, well thought out, and carefully curated based on their personal experiences. These suggestions kept us more than occupied and very happy throughout our stay there. We are so grateful and appreciative that they provided us with this, and we had not even arrived in Montalcino yet! :) Once we arrived in Sant'Angelo in Colle, we were greeted with the warmest of welcomes, as if we were friends who had not seen each other in a long time, despite the fact this was our first time meeting. Our bags were extremely heavy, and we had several of them as we were traveling from Piemonte prior and had packed a fair share of wine to bring back home to NY with us. Despite the quantity of bags and their weight, Michele insisted on carrying our bags inside and simply would not take no for an answer. This was far too generous, especially considering there were a good amount of steps that they had to be carried up.  After unloading our bags, Sara and Michele gave us a tour of their beautiful hotel. The hotel opened around 4 years ago, and was completely renovated at that time. The renovations are absolutely gorgeous. They retained the building's beautiful identity inside and out, tastefully applied some modern touches, and created what we believe to be a magnificent, gorgeous retreat in the beautiful little town of Sant'Angelo in Colle. After entering the building you will notice a beautiful courtyard which we've attached photos of. This is where we enjoyed breakfast every day. The front of the building provides just the perfect amount of shade in the courtyard so that you can enjoy the bright sunlight, without it being too h

This lovely small hotel has simple (not overly decorated), clean rooms, which is all we need for the basics. What makes it extraordinary is the restaurant--amazing food--and especially the staff. Silvano could not be more helpful. He is always willing to suggest a parking area in whichever hilltop town we want to visit on any day, and he was willing to call and make sure that the restaurants he recommended for lunch were open in April 2022 as establishments were rebounding from winter and/or covid closure. Antonio is the perfect head waiter. My sense is that he reads people extremely well and responds to different guests in the way that is most comfortable for them. He is always professional, but if he senses, as he did with us, that we're open to being more familiar and friendly, he responds with wonderful humor. And other staff, with whom we had less contact, were also very helpful. We never want to leave after a few days, and we come back each time we're in Italy.
