"It’s not the newest idea under the sun, but when done with even a modicum of skill, a Tuscan country estate hotel is unlikely to raise many complaints. And at Borgo Scopeto Wine & Country Relais there’s much more than a modicum of skill on display. This 14th-century villa, on a hillside overlooking the city of Siena, has held tight to its many historical charms, even as it’s modernized in all the areas that count — while the rooms show the signs of a keen contemporary decorator’s eye, as you roam the hallways and the grounds it’s just about possible to imagine yourself a fourteenth-century nobleman (or noblewoman, who are we to say?)." - Tablet Hotels
