Casa di Adelina has been in the family for many generations and you are a welcome guest..... so much more personal than a hotel but with all the privacy. Our room was quaint and spacious with a comfortable bed and modern bath. Francesco makes a very nice breakfast of fruit, pastries, and the best poached eggs ever. The home is on the third floor, but the caretaker was watching for us and was quick to help with our bags. They had the fastest internet of our whole trip! We really liked staying in this small hill town. It was a perfect base to explore the others and Francesco gave good advice on where to visit. There is a fine restaurant close by and we saw the most amazing sunset from the viewpoint. Would definitely go back.

La casa di Adelina was a perfect stay for my wife and I while in Tuscany. We wanted to experience a beautiful, ancient Tuscan hilltop town, and to stay somewhere local. We fell in love with Monticchiello, and La casa di Adelina was such a charming, authentic place to stay, and very comfortable. Francesco was the perfect host, made beautiful breakfasts, gave us a cooking lesson, and even let us use the kitchen to cook for ourselves one night. I couldn't recommend it more highly.

We decided to tour the Val D' Orcia and found Monticchiello to be a perfect base for it. We were extremely well looked after in Casa Adelina where we had the top floor flat, charming and quirky, with views out onto the valley and its own living room and kitchenette (unused). The village is great-and Francesco was attentive and very helpful, and also cooked us a delicious breakfast. Don't miss the gardens on the ramparts with his father's art installation, also in the art gallery next door. Dine in one of the top-notch local restaurants-we went to la Porta-an easy stroll away. Memorable.
