the resturant is GREAT the environment is GREAT

This hotel is absolutely first class. Starting with the warm welcome from the staff, who conducted check in formalities whilst we sat in the stunning gardens enjoying a drink. The property is drenched in history whilst having all mod cons - the twin world’s of a Tuscan monastery now lovingly restored into a beautifully designed hotel combine seamlessly to immerse you completely. The kitchen produces absolutely knock out dishes, the passion for the best Tuscany has to offer evident in every option; with fantastic cocktails and wine pairings aplenty. The heart of Siena is but an 8 minute drive away and the hotel offers a shuttle service. Explore the palaces, cathedral, ancient sites and restaurants at your own pace before being collected and returned to the hotel where you will find a truly tranquil escape from the city. But it is the staff who deserve the highest praise. Their love of the hotel, its place in the world and how it is part of the local community shine through in every interaction. They are warm, knowledgeable, helpful and care deeply that guests have a truly memorable stay here. If this hotel is the local crown, the staff are the diamonds within it. You must stay here; it’s the best hotel in or near Siena by a country mile.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the wonderful team at La Certosa di Maggiano: Michelle, Janeth, Chef Giovanni, Ricardo (bartender), Philippe (bartender/server), Lorenzo (server), Orieta (server), and Matias (server). If we’ve inadvertently missed anyone, please know that your efforts have not gone unnoticed and are deeply appreciated. Our stay from August 16–20, 2025, was truly unforgettable. We absolutely loved our beautiful Room #2 and were touched by the care and hospitality shown to us throughout our visit. The hotel itself was immaculate, serene, and beautifully maintained. A special thank you to Chef Giovanni for an exquisite dinner—every dish was memorable. We can’t forget our bartender Ricardo for our signature drinks - dirty martinis. We’re already looking forward to staying at La Certosa again on our next trip to Siena. A sincere thank you to Michelle for her thoughtful recommendations around Siena and for securing us tickets to the incredible Il Palio event on August 16—an experience we’ll never forget. Also, our gratitude to Lorenzo for the insightful tour and fascinating history of the monastery and church. To top it all off, we were pleasantly surprised and touched by the thoughtful gifts from the staff—Il Palio t-shirts, wine, and olive oil. What a generous and unexpected treat! We are deeply grateful to the entire team for making our stay so special. We will wholeheartedly recommend La Certosa di Maggiano to our friends and family.

The staff was amazing. The food was amazing.

We only had a couple days to stay here between Cortona and our cruise out of Rome and let me say that this hotel did not disappoint. Everyone was amazing and the staff were very helpful. Such a beautiful property and a wonderful dining experience too.

Happy experience

A perfect place to stay. Nothing was too much trouble. Stunning views. Great facilities including a swimming pool and tennis court and a fabulous place to relax. Food & refreshments excellent. Easy distance from Florence and neighbouring villages. A wonderful place as a base to see much of Tuscany.

Wonderful stay

What an amazing place, we had a great stay here but unfortunately too short. The room was great, the staff were really kind and helpful. Food, both dinner and breakfast was great. Overall the place was amazing, quiet and charming. The tennis court was also an extra plus. Really close to the amazing City of Siena.

Beautiful property, oozing with charm! Staff friendly, warm, and very friendly!

“I had the pleasure of staying at Hotel Certosa di Maggiano in Siena, and it truly felt like a sanctuary. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff made us feel right at home with their exceptional hospitality. The room was comfortable and offered breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. The location is perfect for a peaceful getaway, and the entire experience was nothing short of magical. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a tranquil and luxurious stay in Siena!”

I arrived with a minor injured knee and hand on the road, and the staff went above and beyond to assist with care—truly kind and thoughtful, even offering us two glasses of wine. The hotel itself, converted from a former monastery, is full of character and history. A unique and memorable stay.

Amazing place and super friendly staff! Location is epic

This hotel is amazing. The service, the staff, the location, all WONDERFUL. This hotel used to be a monastery built in 1314, and fully remodeled in the 70’s. Beautiful, comfortable, and quiet. A true relaxation destination.

The building, the heritage, the dining and the peacefulness combined with excellent service and helpful staff made this a magical stay. We loved it.

My favorite stay on our honeymoon in Italy! They even gave us with a free upgrade to a suite. I loved this hotel and only regret that we didn’t stay longer. The whole property was gorgeous and I loved hearing nothing but nature during the day. Their breakfast buffet was pretty great too. Would love to come in the summer so I could enjoy the pool but walking through their olive groves was lovely still. They have a lot of outdoor seating that would make a perfect spot to read a book. We ate at their restaurant for dinner and it was delicious! It is about a 15 minute car ride from the city center though so I wouldn’t recommend walking there (unless you are fine with a 35-40 min walk but there is a bus stop a 4 minute walk away from the hotel that’s convenient if you want to make a trip into town if you don’t have a car. I did pick this hotel though because I wanted a little getaway from the town center but not too far and this was perfect. The staff were very friendly and helpful with everything. Would definitely love to visit again and would recommend to anyone visiting Siena!

Absolutely wonderful property. Beyond any expectations, any detail is so thought thru, truly a piece of art!
