Stelle di Monte

We stayed at Stelle di Monte for three nights at the tail end of our Italy tour and it was by far the best experience we could have asked for. Let me begin by saying how absolutely lucky we are to have found this gem, all of the five-star reviews are well deserved and more. The love and attention the Nathalie and Igor pour into this property is overflowing and can be felt by everyone who stays here. The hotel itself is in one of the most beautiful areas of Tuscany, with gorgeous views from every angle, but truly the best part of our stay with the hospitably provided and how we were treated not just as guests but as friends. Prior to arriving at the property Nathalie was always easily reachable and communicative though the booking process, she also provided us a list of recommendations for restaurants, wineries, and activities to do in the area (absolutely must use there are so many great recommendations on this). Once we arrived Igor greeted us personally with a glass of wine in the cellar and walked us around the property, explained the history of the renovations, and showed us to our room. We had dinner on site the first night there and it is a must do while staying here! The food was delicious (lots of truffle!), and they had many local wines on their wine list, some of the vineyards we got to visit later on in our trip! Nathalie and Igor also personally ran the dinner and breakfast services and were always available to chat about anything you needed. At the end of our stay Nathalie also helped us with organizing our return taxi to the train station and even waited with us while they were running late to ensure we would make our connection on time; truly amazing hospitably to the very last minute we left. I truly cannot recommend this hotel enough, it is a must stay in Montepulciano! Hopefully one day we will be lucky to return; best of luck on all future endeavors to Nathalie and Igor and Stelle di Monte!!

Stelle Di Monte is truly one of a kind! This place is right out of a storybook. Our room was gorgeous, with an area outside to sit and enjoy the beautiful view of the Tuscan hills and Montepulciano. Nathalie and Igor are such gracious hosts and highly recommend making dinner reservations. We had dinner both nights and I can honestly say they were the best we have ever had. We look forward to staying at this magical place again!

Wow, Igor and Nathalie have poured their hearts and souls into creating a stay that was simply the highlight of our Italian summer holiday. Character stone buildings painstakingly restored for our pleasure. Landscaped surrounds in a private setting on rural land accentuating 180 degree views of a Tuscan valley, dotted with wineries and then the very best vista - Montepulciano sitting up high to your right in all it's glory. It's so quiet but yet just a easy 10-15 minute gently sloped walk into the town, done four times by us in the middle of summer with no hassle. The hosts are simply wonderful to be around, classy and fun and yes Igor is a chef of the highest order so the dining experience is a must. The staff were so happy and helpful. The rooms are character laden and the photos very accurately display how they are. Quite simply, what you have here is the reality of an amazing dream by the hosts - A Tuscan dream and who hasn't dream't that before! We will definitely return.
