We had a hard time picking where to base ourselves for 4 nights in Tuscany. We knew we wanted a charming area outside of the larger cities with great views, food, and wine. Thanks to Tripadvisor we came across reviews for La Locanda and pulled the trigger. This hotel/B&B really lives up to its ranking here, and we'd recommend it... More

We couldn't have been happier with our choice to stay at La Locanda! The property is on top of a hill with a scenic overlook and the building is attractive and beautifully decorated. One of the owners, Cinzia, greeted us with a complimentary glass of wine in the attached wine bar. She gave us great maps, including one with all... More

The beautiful, comfortable room, the location, the amazing view, the perfect wine bar attached to the property and, of course, Cinzia, all conspired to make our stay here the highlight of our trip. If you're going to Tuscany to visit the hilltop villages, taste wine, eat copious amounts of food and all that, you really have two basic options. You... More

When other bloggers or members write about how great , how wonderful or best hotel ever stayed in, they are not lying ! It is just as great as it can get. The room is great, the bed is comfortable, the breakfast area is elegant, the view looking out from the room is amazing. Of course Montepulciano does help, but... More

This is almost certainly my favorite hotel in the world. I can't say enough positive things about it: from the start, one of the proprietors, Cinzia, (very responsive on email) arranged for us to be picked up by taxi at a nearby train station. While checking us in, she brought us wine and snacks. Our room was beautiful (and clean,... More

Stayed here in July, 2011. Enough to simply confirm all that has been written. Montepulciano is a magical place, and I would not think of staying elsewhere. You are not only guests in Luca and Cinzia's hotel, but guests in their world that is Montepulciano. You go to a restaurant, mention their names, you always get a smile, and maybe... More

We all should be keeping quiet about this place and keeping it to ourselves. All i can say though is GO SOON! and couldn't recommend this place higher. This small boutique B&B/ Hotel accommodation in the fascinating ancient town of Montepulciano was perfect for our Italian Honeymoon.(Second timers).
