Grand Hotel Continental Tuscany

On arrival, every guest is immediately given the feeling of having crossed the threshold into an exclusive place with an extraordinary atmosphere. The original interior layout has been maintained and 51 rooms were created many of which frescoed. They have been painstakingly restored and furnished with antiquities.

The fine dining restaurant is the place to taste delicious Tuscan specialties in an elegant atmosphere where the music soothes the mind and the seasonal specialties delight the palate. The Bar, situated in the crystal covered courtyard of the noble palazzo, is the home to the perfect drink. And last but not least, our wine cellar situated in the medieval tower, with its 600 labels is the ideal place to sip a glass of precious wine whilst savoring local cheeses and specialties.The views over the roof tops and on the Duomo, the renaissance painted ceilings, the fine cuisine and the terraces with blossoming flowers are all aspects which render the stay truly memorable.

The great doors to each chamber usher you into spaces that it would be unjust to describe as mere rooms.From the suites to the "simple" single rooms, each one is different, with frescoed vaulted ceilings or coffered wooden beams, terracotta floors, prints and paintings of acknowledged value, and splendid period furniture.

How can anyone fail to be thrilled on entering the magnificent San Cristoforo suite with its precious authentic 15th-century fresco, the tower suite on two levels with bijou panoramic studio, or the delightful octagonal room with four-poster bed, the ideal love nest for newlyweds? The utmost care is lavished on each and every detail, from the precious marble of the bathrooms to the latest technology for contact with the rest of the world, all in flawless harmony to ensure that each guest's stay is more than perfect.
