Fodor's Review:

Pope Julius II once owned this luxurious estate in the valley of the River Elsa. The papal villa and an adjacent building have magnificently furnished guest rooms and suites appointed with antiques. A wall-size tapestry depicting the Roman army hangs beside a red canopy bed in the Angels Room. La Suvera's first-rate facilities include drawing rooms, a library, an Italian garden, a park, and the Oliviera restaurant (serving organic estate wines). Pros: Luxurious accommodations, historic setting, far from the madding crowd. Cons: Out-of-the-way location, showing its age, some bristle at the extremely formal service.
