This is the quirkiest hotel I have ever stayed in. It has the feel and decor of a 16th Century fortified town house combined with crazy art and ornaments.
The staff were super helpful, the rooms are spacious and comfortable. Loved the honesty bar and the rooftop beer garden.
Loads of great little shops and restaurants inside and outside the city walls and as ever friendly cats all over the place.
Breakfast was great and you can help yourself to the homemade cakes, the real hit is the spinach quiche.
Ssh it's a gem, don't tell everyone 😉
Muy bonito Montecarlo, pero difícil el estacionamiento y la zona es ZTL tuvimos que caminar dos cuadras con maletas Costa arriba y subir por unas escaleras muy empinadas en la casa. Y tienes el campanario de la iglesia enfrente de tu habitación
Wunderschönes kleines Hotel mitten im alten Stadtkern. Unser Zimmer war riesig und es fehlte an nichts, das Hotelpersonal war sehr freundlich, tolle Restaurants in der Altstadt, wie InCucina Montecarlo, La Buca Del Norcino. Wir kommen sehr gern wieder.
Accueil très chaleureux et amical, placé top au centre du village, accès en voiture et place de parc à proximité. Ancienne bâtisse avec tout son charme. Très belle expérience 😉
A very nice experience in a lovely town. The hostess was very accomadating. She let us arrive earlier than expected and was very informative for parking. Despite it was a Saturday and a holiday it was very quiet for a good nights sleep. Coffee at breakast was some of the best around.
Wir fanden sehr freundliche Gastgeber und ein sehr schönes mit liebe zum Detail gemachtes Ambiente vor. Wir reisten mit einem kleinen Hund, für den hatten die Gastgeber ein süßes Hundebett mit 2 Näpfen vorbereitet. Das haben wir bisher in den letzten 10 Jahren nur einmal auf allen Reisen erlebt und zwar im Hotel Hilton. Das Frühstücksbuffet war ausgezeichnet und ließ keine Wünsche offen. Auch Ausflüge in die Umgebung wurden uns sehr gut erläutert.
Gorgeous bed and breakfast in stunning little town
Fab bed and breakfast in Montecarlo . We had family suite which had a gorgeous main room and separate smaller room with 2 bunks for the kids. Kids felt it 'was like staying in a castle'...stunning old building. Proprietor spoke amazing English, insisted on helping with luggage in 40 degree heat and we couldn't have been more comfortable. Montecarlo is a gem...you can't go wrong eating out and we'll definitely consider returning for a romantic break (maybe with just two of us next time!)
In un antico borgo, piccolo ma vivacissimo, si trova il palazzo che ospita il B&B. Il palazzo è stato ristrutturato e arredato con gusto. Le camere sono ampie e confortevoli, pulitissime. La prima colazione varia e arricchita ogni mattina dalle torte fresche di Erica. Abbiamo ricevuto disponibilità, cortesia e buoni consigli, affabilità senza invadenza. Assolutamente consigliabile per chi desidera visitare la Toscana nord occidentale (e vale anche per le famiglie).
Good stay here. Lovely and enthusiastic service. Welcomed by Francesca immediately. This is a place that want to make you a happy guest. Parking is mere yards away. As close or closer than hotels with their own lot. No worries here.
Breakfast was customary. Pastries, ham and cheese and breads with coffee, teas, orange juice, granola.
Great toiletries (Rituals)!
Tiny village so walk out your door and you are already in the center.
Constructive criitiques: please improve quality of matresses, linens, pillows and blankets. Also lighting in the rooms.
Without question the best service we had during our three weeks in Italy. If you want to discover a hilltop C13th Roman village, Monte Carlo is your place. Great location if you have a car - Pisa, Vinci and Lucca and Florence all easy to get to and with visiting.
Francesca was without doubt the most gracious and accomodating host. Her passion for service and love for Monte Carlo is evident in everything she does and the property - and is world class. To stay in a C16th abode was the experience of a lifetime with fire-side drinks before dinner in the village. If you want a real Italian experience - with service to match - then this is your place. We loved our night with Francesca. She is a terrific host - and pre arrival communication et al was world class.
The best private-owned hotel experience I have ever had. Clean, comfortable and at a nice location, where you can have a view of the whole city and where you can enjoy the pure Italy style town.
The hotel is big (over 1000 sq meters or 10,000 sq ft). It is full of history: a 500 year old well, a villa and lots of collections by the owners, who are super nice and professional.
The breakfast is the best breakfast experience I have had so far after traveling so many places in many countries.
A couple of minutes away you can enjoy food and drinks at a street full of bar and reataurants. Nice food with very reasonable price.
The town is small but so pure Italy style. The door of the castle/town could be closed so that the town is safe. Make sure you walk though the town, which is full of story.
In sum, a very sweet memory in Italy. I would regret it if missed it. And I told my son to make sure to bring his children here in the future ( my son is just 11 :))
Strongly recommend!
