How many people can say they’ve stayed in a 15th-century convent? You can if you book Relais Chiostro di Pienza, a charming hotel set right in the heart of Pienza.

The staff was excellent and friendly, accommodating last minute requests. The dinner was the best meal of the trip. Pici, a local pasta with pecorino cheese and shaved truffles, and the BEST sautéed spinach of my entire life! (I enjoy a lot of spinach at home and while traveling!)
Also, the view from the dining tables was spectacular!
Only 492 feet from the center of Pienza, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Piccolo Hotel La Valle offers a rooftop terrace with panoramic views of the Val D'Orcia valley, where you can enjoy breakfast.

The location of this property and the view were spectacular. A 2 second walk into town and a stunning view of the Tuscan country side. Couldn’t ask for a better position. The rooms were clean and enough space for a one night stay. The breakfast was cute and had everything you needed except bacon etc. but we didn’t care as the pasties and salami alone were delicious as were the plethora of cakes and desserts. If you are looking for a massive hot food spread you will not find it here except scrambled eggs. But honestly it doesn’t matter. It was perfect for us.
Located in Pienza, in a building dating from 2016, A440 in Tuscany features a bio lake and guestrooms with free WiFi.

Very good location, 10 mins walk to Pienza town center, no need to worry about the ZTL. Not just the interior is quite neat, the view from the place is amazing. Don’t forgot to check the pool and enjoy overlooking the orcia valley.

Pienza is small but has an excellent selection for dining. Sight seeing in town is somewhat limited but affords terrific views over Val d'Orcia. If you like Pecorino cheese, you have to visit the shops in Pienza. Quick bite, try Pizzeria Pummaro near gate into old center. For charm and quality meal try Pane Vino & Zucchero. For all round the Trattoria la Buca Delle Fate is good. For a good hike outside of town, don't stop at the spot where they shot the Gladiator scene, keep going.

Pienza has one main street which means it can feel crowded when a relatively small number of people visit. There is limited free parking which is also used by residents.
There are a variety of small shops which mostly sell typical regional products. There is an abundance of Pecorino and hams. It is possible to buy a range of different quality of jewelry. There are also a few clothes shops.
There is a beautiful panoramic walk on the entrance from the North.
The town is blessed with a variety of restaurants and bars which are mostly tradition Tuscan food. There are also at least two ice cream shops.
The market takes place on Friday. In October there are a number of events such as the chocolate festival which means it gets very crowded on the weekend. There are limited public services such as clean bathrooms.
I limited the amount of time that I visited the town during my week long stay mainly due to access to parking. You have to pay 24/7 which is a problem for evening meal when travelling alone in the dark at a parking meter.

We utilised Pienza as a base from which to explore various towns within the Val D'Orcia, a world heritage area. We could have stayed longer to visit more towns and explore mountain biking trails. Pienza in itself is clean, beautifully restored, has chic dining spots and it was a privilege to have visited.

Pienza is now one of our favourite destinations in Tuscany. We have visited San Gimignano, Siena, Monteriggioni. Montepulcino whilst travelling by car and have found Pienza to be so pretty and enjoyable to be in. Parking was easy to navigate and the laneways of Pienza were quiet and so charming. The walkway/lookout side of the town provided vistas that you would hope for. Pienza is also quite close to those classic Tuscan scenes/photos that you may have seen previously.

I loved absolutely everything about this place.
I loved absolutely everything about this place. From location, to comfort, to the friendliest host (Tommaso) ever. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to explore the Tuscan country side. It is close to Pienza and many other attractions and is just a gem of a place.
Staying in this hotel was magical. Stunning grounds and castle. Rooms are classic with modern touches, beautifully decorated and clean. Very thoughtful additions to the room (ex. shoe cleaner, makeup remover pads). Breakfast was diverse and delicious with local products available. What a fantastic base from which to visit southern Tuscany. Christina was a lovely host and namely helped us to bring our luggage up to our room. Very close to Pienza and a short drive to many other towns. Would have loved to have stayed here longer.
A wonderful place to stay in beautiful Tuscany. All the beauties are within walking distance. Shop, café, laundry service are also close by. The hostess is very welcoming, although we didn't see her. Helped us to get from another town as we didn't catch the last bus.
The hotel is in the centre of the town. The room is clean and there is a coffee machine. We were very happy with it. I hope to return to wonderful Tuscany one day!
Perfect apartment right in the center of Pienza. Andrea was possibly the best host I’ve ever had. He sent us a map link for free parking and also multiple links for must see locations and scenic driving routes in Tuscany including filming locations used in movies like Gladiator and Romeo & Juliet. He was a wealth of information in every way. Things to do, restaurants....you name it! Don’t hesitate to book this apartment-🙂
A perfect stay after a few busy days in Florence. 6 minute drive from Pienza, easy access to all the other lovely’s towns. our apartment was clean and comfortable with a lively view out to the garden. the breakfast was the best we’ve had in Italy thus far. incredible! highly recommend going to Podere Il Casale. Amazing view and incredible food. this is where you should do a cooking class but book well in advance.
Loved the location. Right in the centre of pienza, just outside the walls so super short walk into the old part of town. We have 2 small kids and there was a nice little park 100m walk away. The staff at the hotel were super nice, accommodating and helpful. The hotel room was very clean and nice. Only suggestion would be to have a kettle in the room with coffee and tea. They didn't have this.
Beautiful Hotel with excellent breakfast. You can choose to have breakfast inside or outside.
Pool is clean and invited to have a refreshing water time
Parking places close to hotel
Way to Pienza needs 5 minutes by walk
Bus Station to Montepulciano for excample takes 2 minutes away by walk
Lot of restaurants around the hotel with beautiful view into Orcia valley
Perfect location, comfortable beds, great breakfast. Isabella is super nice and helpful and her husband makes the best the homemade tart! Order it every day - you’re on vacation! Best accommodations of our trip and Pienza was lovely. Laundry facilities near by. And the terrace- we wish we had more time to enjoy that beauty.
It was right in the village. It was a lovely home, nicely decorated and has a washing machine. The pictures are a good representation of the home. It is very clean and has a nice bathroom. Antonio was delightful to work with and available if needed. Easy access to the property. Pienza is a good location to visit other villages.
We stayed one night, it’s such a lovely B&B, a favourite of our time in Italy. We particularly enjoyed the terrace with amazing views and the breakfast was delicious. It was extremely clean and well looked after and the host was so genuine and kind. We had everything we needed and wished we could have stayed longer.
The hotel staff were friendly and exceptionally helpful. Very close to the charming old city. Very close to the supermarket. Maybe 100 meters distant. We really loved the hotel and Pienza! Nicola, his mother and restaurant staff were so helpful and even tolerated my attempts to speak Italian!
Great location. The back of property is overlooking the valley with fantastic scenery. This is also the same place for breakfast and dinner. The pool is fantastic. The room was very clean. The beds comfortable and the size of room was the biggest we had in Italy ever. Great place.
Tasty but small and simple breakfast in comparispn with other locations in Tuscany. Perfect location at town center in the heart of Unesco town. Parking ok at supermarket Coop, perfect hike trail from Montepulciano back to Pienza. Wonderfull terace view from the roof.
Beautiful hotel just couple of minutes from all the beautiful views and attractions of Pienza. Great room with a balcony, very comfortable bed, fantastic breakfast and very very helpful concierge and receptionist. Wish I could stay for longer.
Location is excellent - near Pienza and Montepulciano - two very nice historic towns. The locality of the accomodation is excellent - quiet spacious environment. Fully equippped. Willingness of the personel. Good location to explore Toscana.
L’Angolo di Pienza was an excellent place to stay the room was very comfortable and clean. It is well situated when visiting Pienza. The host was extremely helpful and there is a lovely coffee shop just beside the hotel.
Il Mastio was our best accommodations in Italy! Plenty of room. Everything worked, and it was nicer than our home. Breakfasts were lavish. If you want a beautiful rural setting, this is it.
Luca provided excellent customer service and the hotel had great amenities, including free wi-fi and a delicious breakfast. The hotel was just a short walk to the city center.
The location is wonderful to experience the Tuscany's best attractions. Close to wonderful Pienza, the landscape is amazing and the staff very nice and helpful.
