It was well organised. ... It is a lovely place to go for a couple of days or a couple of weeks.

The instruction and the map which should explain how to come to Borgo Sicele is very confusing. You must explain that one must leave the autostrada at San Donato exit and show the way to Borgo Sicele from there. We left the highway according your map at Pogibonsy and wasted a lot of time to find the place.
... We took 2 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms. According the web site we got the impression that we will get each bathroom near one of the bedrooms, but we got in the 2nd floor 2 bedrooms and only 1 bathroom and another bathroom in the 1st floor. ... You should explain more accurately how to reach the place from Siena Firenze highway. You should explain that the 2 bedrooms cotege have 2 bedrooms and a bathroom in the 2nd floor and a kitchen and 1 bathroom in the 1st floor. ... It is a nice clean and a quite not expensive place. The staf is very polite and helpful and gave us good assistance for every question that we had. One must ask the staf for an accurate explanation and a map to find the way back after traveling in Toscana.

Borgo Sicelle is very well located,ten minutes from the Siena Firenze freeway, close to San Gimignano. From its quiet hilltop, it offers a spectacular view of the surrounding Chianti hills, covered with olive trees and wineyards, especially from the swimming pool and covered terrace. The rooms are spacious and recently renovated in an old lovely stone building. We should have stayed longer!

Only the last part of the written instructions should be slightly amended as there is a turn and it's a little more then 3 km from the highway but it's not a big problem. ... First, this place was amazing and the owners were very nice, helpful and discrete - all appreciated. The site/view is even more impressive then on the Internet pictures. Property is very clean and owners provide maps and other information - verbally and in writting - as required. ... No ... No. We were impressed that the description was that close to what we got. ... Perfect holiday place: clean, impressive view, nice facilities, friendly owners.
Small, non touristic village close by for grocery and restaurants (San Donato).
Location is perfect - close to Florence, all smaller villages of Tuscany such as San Gimiano, Montepulciano, Montalcino, Sienna, it's close to the highway but very, very quiet at the same time.
A 'must'. I would definitly go back to this place if I were back in Tuscany.

Directions and map for arriving by car from Rome need to be made clearer ... The pictures on the web couldnt really show the rolling hills effectively, as its would be hard to do on a flat screen. The actual landscape was more dramatic and beautiful than the photos showed ... A beautiful location in an ideal setting for enjoying the quiet realxing beauty of Chianti, with convenient access to Florence, Siena, and other Tuscany highlights

Owners Sylvia and Franco were very warm and informative ... The rooms we had were close to the entrance for the office so were a bit noisy at times and did not have a very private feel. Other rooms on the proeperty were much better situated ... One night we actually used the babrbecue grill that is provided for guests -- also a nice picnic area to eat and view the sunset. ... Clean, affordable, somewhat rustic, and very charming.

we followed the direction given by the owner (not from the webpage)and that was very clear and simple. ... Tuscany seems to be a relatively expensive destination but the Borgo Sicelle offers the best value for money comparatively. ... quaint and beautiful. well-located in the heart of the chianti.

We left after one day. We had had the impression that it was a wineyard and was very disappointed after arriving. At the same time we had a flat, from wich it was not possible to go out except into the garden, and this was also very disappointing for us. For a family with kids it's a great place, but maybe you should put on the site, that it's a place for children, since we wanted peace and quiteness, which we didn't have.
