<p>We were very pleased to see <strong><a href="http://www.hotelrelais.it/scheda.asp?ID_Struttura=91">Castelletto di Montebenichi</a></strong> listed as a top 10 worldwide luxury destination<strong>.</strong></p>
<p>Castelletto di Montebenichi is a XII century castle located in the countryside of Tuscany and easily reachable from Arezzo, Siena, San Gimignano, and Moltepulciano, just to name the most famous locations you&#8217;ll want to visit during your stay in Tuscany.</p>
<p>We at the <a title="Holidays in Tuscany" href="http://www.hotelrelais.it/">Hotel Relais Consortium of luxury Hotels in Tuscany</a> are very proud of this top 1o nomination by Trip Advisor, a direct confirmation of the top quality luxury accommodation provided by members.</p>
<p>Hotel Realis in Tuscany offers the best of Tuscany.</p>
<p>Marco, one of the partners who renovated Castelletto di Montebenichi told us:</p>
<p>&#8221; My partner and I decided to renovate Castelletto di Montebenichi in the early 90s. The Castle was a medieval fortress built to defend Florence from Siena. The entire restoration process was lengthy and scrupulous, and we moved our private antique art collections here.</p>
<p><strong>Hotel Castelletto di Montebenichi is a small private museum</strong>.</p>
<p>Our objective is to make Guests feel at home as if they were visiting someone you know in a private home, with all the attentions and warmth you experience from friends, without being intrusive and respecting your privacy&#8221;</p>
