Rough Guide
"This stunning former monastery, in a rural setting 1km southeast of the centre, offers large, elegant rooms surrounding the central cloister, beneath the (still functioning) bell tower."
Lonely Planet
"With the fertile Tuscan countryside beginning almost at the city’s edge, food is the other municipal obsession, with Il Canto de l’Hotel Certosa de Maggiano widely recognised as the city’s top restaurant."

"This well-located, quiet pensione is in a renovated Renaissance palace. Rooms come with original terracotta floors, frescoed ceilings, carved doorways and antique furnishings."
Star Service
"Run by the same family for nearly 100 years, this is one of the best midlevel hotels in the old city center, and the lack of a restaurant or bar should not disappoint many travelers."
