Relais Palazzo Del Capitano
Address - Via Poliziano,18, 53027, San Quirico D'orcia

 General Information

The palazzo del Capitano has reappeared after an extensive and detailed restoration, as a charming hotel with eleven gracious rooms offering modern comforts whilst retaining the fascination of the ancient architecture and enhanced by furnishings following the true Tuscan tradition.

The edifice which dates back to 1400 is one of the oldest in the historic centre of San Quirico d'Orcia, a small medieval village in the heart of Tuscany. At the time of its construction the palace was property of the noble Siennese Biringucci family whose family crest can still be found on the main façade on Via Poliziano.

The former stables with the original vaulted ceilings have been converted into a restaurant room with a bar and a large fireplace. Here guests can be offered an appetising breakfast or enjoy lunch or dinner based on typical Tuscan dishes including homemade pasta and other local delights. In summer breakfast can also be served in the hotel garden.

In the original wine cellar discovered during the restoration, guards a wide selection of the finnest wine of the area such as Nobile di Montepulciano or Brunello di Montalcino.

The delicate perfume of lavender bushes and aromatic herbs accompanies the wanderer during walks underneath the vine covered pergola, in the olive groves, the orchard and through the Mediterranean vegetation. In this quiet corner relaxing moments can be passed reading or sunbathing on the comfortable loungers.
