As long time visitors to Italy (family) we found the Borgo di Fontebussi beautiful to stay at. The cuisine is excellent, the Chianti villages are all close by and Siena is less than an hour away (by car). It's isolation is desirable and the quietness of the complex (September) was great. Definitelty a keeper and we recommend it whole heartedly.

Borgo di Fontebussi is perched high in the hills of Tuscany, overlooking vinyards and olive groves and small villages. The panoramic view is absolutely breathtaking. Six of us stayed in the Begonia cottage, a three-floor, three-bedroom apartment that was oh-so clean and roomy. The staff was so accommodating and helped us arrange a winery tour, dinner reservations, and a cooking... More

Fontebussi is in a beautiful location. The rooms are fairly small but the bathroom is nice. Airconditioning doesn't seem to work all that well. YOu have to pay extra for wi fi which is kind of a rip. Not only that but it doesn't work in your room. The breakfast was nice. Marco in the restaurant is an exceptional waiter... More

We were very happy with our accomodations. We had a little villa with a lovely patio area to enjoy the sun and the scenery. We woke every morning to birds singing and a view out our bedroom window that was to die for. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The restaurant was excellent and reasonably priced. The place exceeded... More

This is an amazing place, I have never stayed anywhere like it. The location is a bit hard to find (be sure you get detailed directions, and a map) but once you get there, you think you are in heaven. The views are spectacular, and exactly what the pictures on the website show. Our room was large with a comfortable... More

While driving into the property, I pinched myself. The property is immaculate in design and care. There are olive groves and an amazing swimming pool. Separate and unique buildings offer rooms of varied sizes and amenities. Ours was simple yet quite pleasant. The negative came when I turned off the light to sleep after a long and wonderful day. The... More

This hotel is pretty unusual. As other reviewers have said, it's a mixed bag. Firstly the good points: The views are amazing and the sense of being in the middle of the Tuscan countryside is wonderful. The building are all interesting and varied with great attention paid to what must have been an expensive renovation. The rooms are kept very... More

Nice area. We stayed in the tower, 3rd floor. Nice balcony, grea view. Nice little room on two floors. However, air-conditionning doesn't cool down the upper floor - far too hot to sleep well! Fridge takes well over 12 hours to make drinks cold. (Reception didn't believe us when we told them.) Good service in day-time snack area, terrible service... More

My friend and I stayed here for a few days - it was a pleasant place to stay in, the food in the restaurant was very good, although the menu is a bit limited if you plan to eat there every night for a longer stay. The breakfast was extensive and good, refreshed constantly. The rooms were nice, although you... More
