Hotel Description
Borgo San Felice, in the heart of Chianti, lies on a hill 350 m. above sea level, only 15 Km from Siena, 6 Km from Castelnuovo Berardenga, an hour by car from Florence and two and a half hours from the capital, Rome. This jewel, set amid straight rows of vines and olives, has something to offer for all visitors: the woods on the steep slopes of the high Chianti Mountains, the imposing castles in the vicinity, the vineyards and hills descending towards the Crete Senesi.
The careful restoration has highlighted the architectonic features of the nineteenth-century palazzos and the period charm of the limited number of stone-built houses on the picturesque lanes. The hamlet provides a perfect slice of the Middle Ages, where time itself should be �savoured'. A piece of unmistakeable Tuscany.

Luxury Hotel Accommodation
Discovering Chianti is easy while spending relaxing days immersed in the nature and history of San Felice, enjoying the highest standards of comfort. The prestigious hotel has 46 rooms, including elegant suites. The whole of the hotel is in the typically sober Tuscan style. Guests stay either in the main palazzo on the hamlet's small piazza or in the Medieval houses with their characteristic arches, loggias and stairways. Some rooms have beautiful views, encompassing the sinuous rhythm of Chianti hills towards Siena and the high peak of Monte Amiata beyond. Other rooms have charming views of the stone-built hamlet and its lanes, giving an incomparable sense of time standing still.
The rooms are furnished with quality, hand crafted and antique Tuscan furniture. The sizes of the rooms vary from building to building, reflecting in their authenticity, the uses to which they were put in the past.
