Relais Osteria Dell'Orcia

很温馨的度假酒店，乾淨衞生，尤其是晚上的晚餐，味道很棒。 位置是託斯卡納地區的奧爾恰谷，裏周圍那些中世紀小城都很近。

The long-time staff (and newer staff, too, David) here are simply the most hospitable, kind people imaginable. They do everything to meet your every need. Which hilltop town do you want to visit? They will tell you the best place to park and their choice for restaurants, plus make a reservation for you, too. The restaurant is so wonderful that we don't think about going elsewhere for dinner. I love this place as a base for seeing Tuscany's hilltop towns.

Tasteful lovely hotel with a pleasant peaceful ambience. Professionally run with every attention to guest comfort. Charming host. Attentive thoughtful responsive service. Sumptuous yet with rustic style. Superb meals

The hotel is a great launching pad to explore Tuscany, but more than that it is a place to truly call home during your stay. We were warmly welcomed by Luca and Antonio upon arrival (got a bit lost but make sure to take the gravel road on the right just after turning off SR 2). The room had a king bed and was fine. The highlight was the staff including Rita and the owner (sorry forgot his name). All made you feel like home. Dinner here was the best dining experience in Tuscany, though we did have nice dinners in Bagno Vignioni). I can't emphasize enough how the staff make us feel like we were guests in their home.

Osteria Dell’Orcia is delightful! Our room was charming with pretty views of the countryside. But what makes this place special are the people who work here. When we arrived, the owner Sylvano and his staff were waiting outside to greet us. Our waiter/Sommelier, Antonio, totally took care of us, teaching us about Brunello wines, serving us a special t- bone steak, or whipping up an incredible dessert at dinner. Everyone was so kind and helpful! The gardens are beautiful and the pool is a nice respite after a day of touring Tuscany. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this wonderful place!

I have posted negative reviews, but rarely and only when I think it will keep someone else from being harmed. So if you are contemplating a stay at Osteria dell'Orcia, read this first. When it was time to book, the first call to the hotel was answer by Silvano the owner with a very cheerful “good morning.” So upbeat and cheerful that it felt like the soul of two millennia of that famous Italian hospitality was embodied in this man. A few logistical missteps on his part changed everything. It began when Silvano’s driver Francisco failed to show up at the airport in Rome to meet me and my elderly mother. I am sure there is a side to their story but I can’t imagine what it is. The pickup, flight information, hours, everything was clearly documented in email exchanges with both Silvano and directly with his driver. It probably had something to do with my afternoon flight being one hour late, information that was shared with them by email (twice) more than 6 hours before my scheduled arrival. Not to belabor this but when I called Silvano and inquired about where to find his driver, he went on a tirade that exhibited well known qualities of a clinically bipolar person. Not only did he not propose a solution but he told me not to come to his hotel and he made several more furious, mostly incoherent statements. We found lodging in Rome. I tried to call Silvano again to understand what had happened hoping that if there was a misunderstanding it could be smoothed over. He uttered something in Italian and then hung up on me. The next day I received an email from Francisco the driver who was supposed to meet me. It was a photograph of a menacing man who looked like Che Guevara showing his teeth. Underneath him was printed Sto Cazzo. Google translated that as F**k You. Be forewarned. You are dealing at this hotel was an unstable cast of characters. --, feel free to contact me here and I’ll be glad to share the entire email chain with you. In the meantime, why expose yourself to a wolf no matter how blithely he’s dressed in sheep’s clothing. The spa town has many other appealing hotel options.

What an incredible stay. We were greeted by name as our driver pulled up to their hotel. The property is beautifully built and maintained and the landscaping is a picturesque oasis. Our room was clean and refreshed at least twice a day (without asking). Due to the 90+ degree weather, we really appreciated having a minibar in our room. The breakfast area has a multitude of fresh fruit, kefir, fresh baked pastries, and juices. Antonio and Lorenzo provide amazing service for their dinner guests. The food was quite tasty and the presentation was top notch. Kudos to Silvano, the hotel manager, for really keeping tabs on everything that we had planned. He even offered to take our breakfast order despite having to leave at 5:40 a.m. in the morning. He ended up packing us nice to-go bags with bottled water and muffins. I highly recommend Relais Osteria Dell'Orcia! They really go out of their way to make sure you have a great time!

This lovely small hotel has simple (not overly decorated), clean rooms, which is all we need for the basics. What makes it extraordinary is the restaurant--amazing food--and especially the staff. Silvano could not be more helpful. He is always willing to suggest a parking area in whichever hilltop town we want to visit on any day, and he was willing to call and make sure that the restaurants he recommended for lunch were open in April 2022 as establishments were rebounding from winter and/or covid closure. Antonio is the perfect head waiter. My sense is that he reads people extremely well and responds to different guests in the way that is most comfortable for them. He is always professional, but if he senses, as he did with us, that we're open to being more familiar and friendly, he responds with wonderful humor. And other staff, with whom we had less contact, were also very helpful. We never want to leave after a few days, and we come back each time we're in Italy.
