“Traditional 15th Century Tuscan mansion with manicured garden and fountains behind the town walls of San Quirico d'Orcia. Pretty in pink rooms feature four-poster beds and whimsical spiral staircases. There's a cosy lounge with a vaulted roof and open fire plus an excellent restaurant and spa. ”

Hotel review

Occupying a 15th-century mansion in the lovely old town of San Quirico d’Orcia, south of Siena, the Palazzo del Capitano has emerged looking better than ever from a recent renovation. It offers 22 pretty rooms, handsomely furnished in Tuscan tradition, a comfortable sitting room/bar in the former stables with a fine vaulted roof and open fire, and an excellent restaurant. In warm weather, meals are served in the lovely shady garden.
