Welcome to Inns of Italy – a selection of special small hotels in Italy for the discerning, independent traveler. Independent of price or style, the most important criteria for our Inns of Italy are that the properties are charming, are in a special location, have a commitment to exceptional service and, perhaps most importantly, the hosts are friendly and helpful. Italy is a wonderfully appealing country to visit: there are festivals throughout the year; the food and wine is extraordinary; the natural beauty of the countryside is perfect for hiking, walking and biking; the art, architecture and history extraordinary—but perhaps more than anything—the generous hospitality of Italians is unsurpassed.

Self-catering or partial service Castel Pietraio was once an important medieval defensive outpost of Siena - and now it is a delightful small hotel with both hotel and apartment accommodation. The rooms are comfortable, well equipped with modern conveniences and all are ensuite. The apartments can accommodate from 2 to 5 people, and all include cooking areas equipped with necessary kitchen utensils, living rooms, bathrooms. The price of the apartments include tax, use of gas and water (heating can be extra). The double rooms and suites in the castle include breakfast and taxes. The rooms are attractively decorated and have a very cosy feel. There are extensive exterior spaces for relaxation, and a swimming pool and parkgrounds. Throughout, the renovations have been carried out with sensitive attention to the original castle structure. There is not a restaurant at the castle but in the vicinity there is a restaurant, a foodstore, tennis court and riding school. The ambience is relaxed and pleasant. ...Visit

Villa La Borghetta was a watchtower in the 14th century and it is now a delightful hotel with eighteen elegant guestrooms. The location is 32 km. from Tuscany, in the hills, and with lovely views.
Agroturismo Il Melograno is located in the soft rolling hills of southern Marche. The Agriturismo has five guestrooms (four double and one single) all skilfully restored while retaining many of the original features and character of a listed building built in the 18th century.
