This Breathtaking Tuscan Hotel Is the Perfect Italian Retreat for Food Lovers

"Monteverdi Tuscany is a boutique hotel located atop a hill in the UNESCO World Heritage site Val d'Orcia. The hotel has restored much of the village's architecture using natural reclaimed materials. It features a world-class spa, lush gardens, dining venues spotlighting hyper-local ingredients, including Oreade, the Lobby Lounge & Terrace Bar, and the Library Bar. Monteverdi also hosts a culinary academy offering classes and intimate dining experiences. Founded by American lawyer Michael L. Cioffi, the hotel includes 20 village rooms, suites, private houses, and plans to expand its culinary garden and on-site production." - Maria Yagoda
