Relais Val D'Orcia was in one of the most beautiful, breathtaking locations I've ever seen. The owner was extremely kind. Facilities were immaculate; room beautiful, service superb. I would love to stay here again. If you're looking for tranquil and romantic, this is it!

Paradise in Pienza
How can you thank God enough for creating such a paradise on Earth that is this Relais. Under the magic wand of owner/manager Laura, Relais Val d'Orcia sits atop a hill with Pienza rolling out before you. The coziness, cleanliness and convenience are perfect and the welcoming staff and pets are the icing on the cake. You will need a car because Paradise should never be easy to reach but, oh is it worth it!

I can’t recommend this property enough. Laura went above and beyond from the time I made the reservation. I asked her for a lot of help with reservations and just general information. She was responsive and gave great recommendations. The property was as described, there was much attention to detail and breakfast was wonderful. I would highly recommend this property.

Beautiful property in Val d’Orcia
Relais Val d’Orcia was a lovely place in beautiful Val d’Orcia .Everything was perfect from services to accommodation. It only opens few years ago and it’s just beautiful. Very comfortable bed, big room, spotlessly clean bathroom and an indoor parking. You get a great view of the Tuscan valley from every window in your room. It is very close to towns like Pienza and Montepulciano, only 20 minutes drive. It is a place to stay if you’re in Tuscany .

The property is on top of the hill. The view around you of the Tuscan valley and surrounding mountains: astounding! The owner Laura is very hands on in taking care of her guest. She took her time to even orient us even in how things work in our room. This property is a must, but you need to have a car to get there. They have a parking garage included in the price. Garage even has a gate. You cannot get into the property without going through a gate. Very safe.

This property is so beautiful, amazing views from every window and lots of outside areas to sit an enjoy just being in this part of the world - so relaxing. The hosts were friendly, helpful and attentive and spending time with their lovely dog was honestly a highlight for us! What a welcome we received when we arrived. The breakfast was the best we have had on our two week trip in italy, amazing selection and the quality of local ingredients is superb. The local yoghurt made down the road was delicious. The homemade cakes were lovely and you can have them with coffee any time.

If you are looking for a converted tuscan farm Villa haphazardly done as someone’s “personal project” this is not it. What this is is a state of the art small boutique hotel/villa designed (architect-owner) and manage by the owner-couple. The main building is at the top of a small Tuscan hill surrounded by crop fields. It is modeled after a classic Tuscan villa with the exterior walls covered with repurposed field stones. Everything else is modern premium commercial grade materials including remote controlled iron gates to access the property and also a second gate to access the underground cement parking lot, outdoor patio with long chairs and simili-stone in ground swimming pool. Inside the finishings are high end and tastefully executed including a cor-ten modern steel stair case, cut stone and stained wood flooring. There is even a small glass and chrome elevator to take your luggage up from the underground parking to the upper living floor. We booked the corner deluxe room which had views of the tuscan country side in two directions. The room was very spacious and designed with the comforts of a fine boutique hotel. This included: high ceilings with exposed wood beams (I’m going to guess more than 15 feet high), wide plank stained hard wood flooring, wall mounted smart TV, electronic thermostat, numerous USB charging plugs, 20 power outlets no less (including one that remains powered even if you remove your room card - for charging

Stayed 3 nights at Relais Val d'Orcia. Laura was great and was a perfect host. The building is brand new and built to match the old farm house that was on the site. Breakfast was good with a selection of cheese, cured meats, yogurt from the farm next door, fresh fruit and 24 hour access to cake, espresso and milk. Laura baked pineapple coconut and ricotta chocolate cakes which where delicious. Location was central in the valley which allowed us to explore the area by driving a loop. Beds were comfortable and the property was quiet and relaxing.

Abbiamo trascorso 7 giorni in questa bellissima location, l'edificio è la famosa "Casa 21", il progetto presentato dall'Arch. Seddio all'Expo 2015 come esempio di bioarchitettura. E l'effetto è entusiasmante: all'interno si viene pervasi da un'energia positiva che genera armonia, di certo grazie a tutti gli accorgimenti che sono stati adottati, molti nemmeno visibili se non dopo essere stati illustrati. L'esterno è altrettanto attraente, con la vista a 360 gradi sulla Val d'Orcia da una posizione di privilegio. Il bio-lago a disposizione sia di giorno che di sera, il giardino tutt'intorno, il solarium e l'area relax sono stati ingredienti altrettanto importanti per il benessere di cui abbiamo goduto. La nostra suite, dedicata a Corsignano, è perfetta, di dimensioni generose e con doccia emozionale. Ottima anche la collocazione geografica, per poter visitare tutta la Val d'Orcia e spingersi anche nella Val di Chiana. Un luogo dove il tempo si dilata e l'orologio rimane nel cassetto. Ci proponiamo di farvi ritorno in autunno.

The AbsoluteTop of our Toscany Trip
Beautiful area, very cosy and romantic Villa with an excellent service and all the amenities you need. We visited at the end of the season and the place was empty. We were the only customers. However, the hotel didn't bargain in service, the breakfast was made for an army of people when we were just the two of us eating. All the premises are in excellent condition, clean and modern. We will absolutely make another visit when in Toscany next time.

Relais Val D’Orcia will not disappoint. We came for the classic Tuscan villa experience and we got that and so much more. My husband and I were traveling through Italy, and we chose this spot for an overnight stay. The location is perfect - right in the middle of an unreal landscape, and a convenient distance from beautiful medieval towns with lovely restaurants and shops. The hotel’s interior has been completely modernized with amazing technology and comfort, without compromising its rustic charm. But most of all, Signora Laura’s hospitality is what sets this place apart from others we have stayed all over the world. She struck the perfect balance between making us feel like we were staying with family and giving us the space to enjoy a romantic getaway. It was absolutely worth the investment. One night was not enough. We will be back!
