Hotel Le Fontanelle  

Tucked into the rolling Chianti Classico hills at Castelnuovo Berardenga, a short drive from Siena. This 5-star boutique resort sits about 20 km from Piazza del Campo and places you close to Florence, Arezzo and San Gimignano.

Housed in a restored 13th‑century Tuscan estate, the hotel mixes classic cotto floors and exposed wooden beams with refined, simple decor. There are 36 rooms with minibars, safes and deep soaking tubs, many overlooking the gardens and Chianti hills, plus terraces and Belvedere views for slow, romantic mornings.

Relax at the spa with massages, body treatments and facials, or dip into the indoor heated pool, outdoor panoramic pool, hot tub and sauna. On‑site winery Vallepicciola anchors the estate and produces Chianti Classico across its surrounding acres. Complimentary shuttle to Siena, valet parking and babysitting (surcharge) keep stays effortless.

High‑speed wired internet plus complimentary Wi‑Fi, a business center and computer station make work easy. Limo/town car service is also available.

Ristorante La Colonna serves authentic Italian cuisine with alfresco options on the Belvedere Terrace, where you can sip estate wines and watch the hills. Enjoy a complimentary buffet/continental breakfast daily, 24‑hour room service, and drinks at the bar or poolside bar.
