Chianti, on a hilltop
 

I would appreciate recommendations for a hotel in Chianti/Siena area that might have a view. Max~150E.

www.borgoargenina.it in Chianti or this one about an hour south www.lacosta.it in Montefollinico .
I was at both in Oct. and both have great views of Tuscan landscapes--take your camera.

Bob, I was looking at Borgoargenina for our family trip in July. Do you recommend it? Why made you choose this place?
Thanks in advance

Podere Tore http://www.greve-in-chianti.com/poderetorre.htm in greve fits very nicely.

If you want a Chianti location, it is hard to beat. Really nice setting--the rooms are good, Elena is a delight. The one negative is no dinner is served here and you must drive :15 to any decent places, if that is a big deal to you.

Thanks for your reply. I checked out the La Costa place, and it looks divine too. Great taste! Any personal recommendations for a castle to stay in? My kids would love that. Any location in Italy is fine :)

The Lacosta does indeed look very nice. However, it appears to be in the center of town, which might make parking a problem. Does is it have convenient parking of its own for guests with cars??

It is a tiny medieval village. There is parking but it is tight. The village is also home to the best gourmet ristorante in Tuscany--La Chiusa.
