Glynnis, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Simply fantastic! We found this converted monastery by accident. The building is beautiful, as are the gardens and surroundings. Very tranquil and peaceful. We had dinner at the restaurant, and it was excellent. The breakfast was one of the best I have eaten! Special mention to the "savory monk's cake" - delicious! My only small complaint is that the rooms are not exactly soundproof. But I can live with that, the rest is just wonderful.

This is a unique place, beautiful, quiet, romantic, special… very Italian and religious, a piece of art and great for relaxing and rest. For sure I will recommend to friends and family.

Dream first Italy stop!

We enjoyed 4 wonderful days and loved every minute. The staff was kind, friendly, helpful, and made our stay very pleasant. Initially we had only booked 3 nights but loved it so much that decided to add one more night. The location also allowed us to visit other parts of the region like Pisa, Florence, and Siena. Having breakfast included and on site parking was the icing on this stay!!

Just a gorgeous restored historic property. The grounds are beautiful and amazing. While the rooms lack the latest/modern amenities (including AC), they make up for it with loads of character and charm and were perfect for our adult family of 4. Our stay was definitely an unexpected highlight of our 8 day Italy vacation

2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a beautiful, peaceful place to stay in Tuscany. The rooms are spacious, and ours overlooked the gardens. The furniture in our room was all antique, so the chairs weren’t very comfortable, but out on the balconies there are much comfier places to sit during the day. The gardens are great to explore and the balconies are perfect to spend a morning reading. The restaurant is delicious, we ate there three out of four nights on our honeymoon. Staff were friendly and helpful in booking us an excursion. We rented an electric car and they had two electric charging stations about a 2 minute walk down the road with a lot of free parking. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to a central base for day trips out to the cities in Tuscany, or for anyone who wants a magical stay in the country.
Tessa, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful experience

This was an awesome experience. To be able to stay in a former monastery that was hundreds of years old was a wonderful addition to our overall trip. While the beds aren't as comfortable as I am use to, the experience was worth the minor discomfort of the beds. The grounds are amazing, the chapel was so exquisite and the staff was wonderful.
Lea, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our stay at La Certosa di Pontignano was a truly memorable experience. The historic charm of the property combined with the serene Tuscan landscape creates a magical and peaceful atmosphere that’s hard to match. The rooms were comfortable, the grounds beautifully maintained, and the staff welcoming and attentive. While we did encounter a small issue during our stay, it was addressed promptly and resolved to our complete satisfaction, which we greatly appreciated. The overall experience far outweighed this minor hiccup. The historical significance of the location adds a special depth to the visit—walking through centuries-old cloisters and gardens while enjoying the beauty of Tuscany is something we won’t forget. We would gladly return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and tranquil retreat.
