Castel Monastero

Castel Monastero

Experience La Dolce Vita at Castel Monastero. Lovingly restored, this medieval monastery is nestled in Tuscany's Chianti region, just a short drive from the stunning city of Siena. Surrounded by chestnut forests and rolling fields, this awe-inspiring property provides the perfect setting to disconnect from daily life.

 

Loving restored the thousand year old walls are a celebration of local history and culture. Once the residence of the aristocratic Chigi family, the halls are now home to 74 elegant suites. Adorned in a chic Tuscan style, guests can admire countryside views straight from a Renaissance masterpiece while soaking in their bathtub.

A temple to rejuvenation, revitalise all the senses in the Aquae Monasterii Spa, where the luxurious treatments use ancient knowledge and healing botanicals taken straight from the gardens. Looking to detox after a stressful stretch? Castel Monastero offers yoga and meditation sessions and personalised wellness programs to restore the mind and body.

After unwinding in the spa, reconnect with mother nature by strolling in the aromatic gardens or hiking the Tuscan wilderness. Feeling peckish? With two gourmet restaurants, guests can sample the region's finest fare or head to the tearoom for an infusion made from herbs grown onsite.
