My wife and I were traveling with my brother and his wife through Tuscany. Montalcino is one of our favorite areas. Thanks to the reviews posted here we decided to stay outside the town and try something different. From the beginning to the end of our 3 night stay, everything about Castello Banfi was absolutely wonderful. The setting on the... More

I've avoided writing this review because I know there are no words that will accurately describe how amazing this place is. It has made me reconsider every other "excellent" review I've ever given because Castello Banfi Il Borgo is now my new standard of excellence. From the moment the large wrought iron gate opens for your arrival, you feel like... More

Charming, fashionable, unforgettable under all aspects! We have stayed for 2 days and these were the best days of our lives. The staff was perfect! The breakfast and dinner are very good. The restaurant is excellent and we recommend the guided tour for everybody. That is place that definetely we will go back.

We spent two nights at Castello Banfi in Sept 2011. While the 14 room Castello was virtually full, there were lots of opportunities to relax by ourselves at the pool or on our own pergola atop the hill and just enjoy the incredible vista across southern Tuscany. No request was viewed as a problem or too difficult, the wine tasting... More

As it was the start of season we had all the castello for ourselves including the master chef resturant. This castello is located in one of the most beautiful corners on earth. Overlooking the tender landscape of Orcia valley the castello has a lot of magic between it's walls. The service is legendary, the rooms are beautiful and enormous. The... More

My wife and visited Montalcino in Sept 2008. The experience at Castello Banfi Il Borgo was extrordinary in many ways. The room, the gardens, the surrounding vineyards, the castle, and of course the great, great food at the restaurant, make this one of the best places to due wine tourism in Italy.

I was here a few years ago with some friends and a professor. We did the tour of the property which was out of this world! State of the art machines and the a team that will only settle for the best. The meal was fabulous and left me stuffed for days, and I went home with a couple bottles... More

October 2011 marked our second trip to Castello Banfi Il Borgo and was just as special as the first. Perched on Tuscan hilltops, the historical Castello provides remarkable views from its immaculately landscaped grounds, which are, in fact, beautiful themselves. The rooms are warm and rustic feeling, with exposed wooden beams and stone, yet smart in modern conveniences and space.... More
