PALAZZO DEL CAPITANO Wellness & Relais - Luxury Borgo Capitano Collection

Our stay at Palazzo del Capitano exceeded all expectations. In reality, this hotel is even more beautiful than in the photos! The hotel grounds are simply stunning – beautifully maintained, incredibly charming, and surrounded by lush greenery. The atmosphere is peaceful, relaxing, and truly special. The entire staff is exceptionally friendly, professional, and attentive. What impressed us the most was that you never need to ask for anything – the team seems to know exactly what guests need and takes care of everything with genuine warmth and care. We were especially grateful for the help with our luggage and packing the car, which was extremely important for us during this trip. The breakfasts are simply outstanding – delicious, varied, and prepared with great attention to detail. Everything about this hotel deserves the highest praise. We left absolutely delighted and will definitely return!

Incredibly friendly and helpful staff. Thanks Marco for lifting out heavy luggage and the great team in the restaurant

The location, cleanliness of the rooms, and friendliness of the staff were all exceptional. The charming town surrounding the hotel was also visually stunning. The restaurant offered an exquisite dining experience with delectable cuisine. It is undoubtedly a must-visit destination. Regrettably, my stay was limited to a single night, but I am eager to return and extend my stay to at least three or four days. My wife and I were captivated by the place and the hotel itself. The garden is particularly beautiful.

That we only stayed for a night.

Stayed at the Palazzo del Capitano luxury hotel during a special 3-week trip celebrating my 61st birthday and 23rd wedding anniversary. I wanted a more authentic and intimate experience in Tuscany. With that in mind, I selected a small borgo in the beautiful hill country Val d’Orcia called San Quirico (where Palazzo Capitano is located) as a home base while visiting other nearby places such as Siena, Pienza and San Gimignano. This region is absolutely breathtaking. I can honestly say that our stay at Capitano was the highlight of our 3-week trip. San Quirico was so much more than I imagined it could be! It is a small but beautiful, historic village with the authenticity I desired and Palazzo del Capitano was the perfect spot! Nothing about this place is like a standard hotel, perhaps because it is run by a family that has history and much pride in their village. The staff feels more like old or new friends vs hotel employees; the property is stunning- from the garden bar and pool area to the quaint indoor/outdoor restaurant serving up wonderful tuscan meals using fresh ingredients from the surrounding land, including the daily breakfast (included with your stay) to the variety of guest rooms that are appropriately appointed blending the medieval charm with modern comforts such as air-conditioning, larger beds and bathrooms. Palazzo Capitano offers daily housekeeping services and luxe amenities- a spa, a food boutique and concierge services. I will say, this area is a bit remote and requires planning ahead for transportation to/from the village (the concierge can help coordinate this if requested). The value here is incredible, and most of all, by the time we left, we felt like family. I will be visiting here again soon and would highly recommend Capitano to anyone looking to visit this region… it is truly a diamond in the rough 😊
