Hotel Panoramic Montepulciano

Not a pleasant memory. Sorry to say, as the place seems nice as far as the house and location goes. But the problem is that the owner's communication skills needs some serious work. So we went there to take three rooms with our small group of friends. As we arrived there was a guy behind the counter who we greeted and he said that we should wait outside until owner arrives. So we did. After a while there were more people coming and after a 15-20 min waiting they either got their rooms or just left. Time went by, but nobody came to ask us what are we waiting for. So we left. Not a problem. I wrote a reply to the owner on their google site and what followed was unbelievable, owner didn't even ask what the problem was, but just started to insult my family as I was raised bad and didn't get enough education from my parents, that is why I can't wait like 'civilized' people and so on. The rant was funny to read, but the owner seems mentally non-stable so I hope they get the medical help they need. Until then I would avoid the place.

Excellent cost x benefit. Beautiful view and spacious bedroom. The hair dryer could be better.

The hotel is in an excellent location, with a great service staff, and is usually very clean...but, there is a very unpleasant avarice, basically there is no breakfast except for some cookies and coffee that doesn't taste good. No need for bath, shampoo and body gel. There is a harsh soap with a terrible smell from the 1950s.

This hotel is really great for families. The rooms are: Comfortable Clean Spacious And some have lovely views and terraces. It is nice and quiet. There is a pool and beautiful views. The staff was very courteous and professional. The views from the area where you eat are stunning! The price is reasonable. You need a car to get around the area Only negatives: They do supply breakfast and are very generous with the amount of cakes and cookies and assorted drinks. However the food is somewhat mediocre. It would also be nice to maybe have fresh fruit or something. The pool tho lovely was not heated. This is a very minor issue since once you get inside it feels ok. However do not let these stop you. I really recommend this hotel for a lovely stay!

Nothing 'panoramic' about this hotel....the hotel description stated a terrace which doesn't exist and we were chastised when we asked for access to it and were told by staff that we shouldn't rely on third party vendors for accurate descriptions. (I have never encountered issues with ********** descriptions in the past and relied heavily on them). We were a little disappointed with the condition of the hotel.....needs some TLC and perhaps a little more thought to dust control and cleanliness. Rooms were large and comfortable. Breakfast was disappointing and had very limited options. They are totally eco-friendly so that's a positive so don't expect toiletries, plastic cups in the room or even a free bottle of water....everything is at your expense and prices were unreasonable....2.50Euro for a bottle of water!!! Would I recommend it....not likely unless some changes are made in the near future. It was not horrible but needs some loving.

Great place with fantastic and warm people at the front desk. I got the room where Internet was bad and immediately was transferred in upgrade room not paying any difference for that. Good placed with connection to all interesting places in the area. Don't miss this place it is worth of coming back again.

The hotel has an amazing location on the top of hill with unique views (unable to describe, just see it!). Nor far from the city of Montepulciano, however a series of curves and no pavements make the walk risky. A car or a public transport are necessary to travel safely. 1. The staff is very kind and eager to solve all issues. At the time of booking they discussed with us the details of all room types to avoid any disappointment. During the check-in all rules were explained. They helped us to call a taxi driver (we do not speak Italian), recommended local food, best parking lot in Siena, etc. Perfect English. Important, when you don’t speak Italian. 2. The rooms. Many depends on the room type, its location and size. All are clean, the cleaning staff visits them every day. Towels and bedclothes were changed frequently. Air conditioning worked effectively, on demand (operated from the reception), however its need strongly depends on the room location (the best have sunny mornings and a hot atmosphere). We had a room with a side view and needed it once. Some rooms have a small number of power outlets (important, when children need to charge everything…). 3. Breakfasts. You can choose either sweet or savory version, or both. Not many place to have a breakfast in the morning (there is a need to schedule it the day before). However, it’s a very pleasant experience - amazing views, the rising sun, lizards, squirrels, birds, etc. 4. Amenities. Table tennis, tennis, swimming pool. No bar, no restaurant. All eating outside the hotel. Not a flaw, hundreds of places serve excellent local food and wine. But you need a way of transport. On foot is possible, but very hot… 5. Mosquitoes. There are many. If you or your child are fragile or allergic, prepare repellents. Evenings and nights are with mosquitoes. Not a hotel specific feature, they’re everywhere. In general, it’s a very quiet and lovely place to sleep and rest after visiting picturesque Tuscany. I was amazed with the silence in the night. No tourists walking in the street below the window, no city events. Just silence. Again, we thank the staff for their kindness and a very pleasant stay.

Nicely located just 5 mins outside Montepulciano with a great view of Tuscany the place has great potential. However the service has been scaled down to basics. No extra towels for a pool swim, a vending machine has replaced a hotel bar, the lobby is uninviting. With a little effort the place would have been great, but instead the facilities come up short in too many situations.
