Help with loding - Tuscany - October 16 and 17
 
We will be participating in the Ecomarthonadelchianti Sunday (15 km from Siena)- and the taking a cooking class pick up just outside Florence on Monday. We are looking for accomodations (2 couples) for Saturday and Sunday night. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. We will have a car therefore we are not limited by bus or train restrictions.
Thank you for your help!

Thank you for your help Bob and kybourpon... i'm checking these out.. seems to be a pretty busy time... and i know that we are checking late for our accomodations, but just made our final destination places... i have emails into a couple of these places and am waiting to hear back.. we have booked other hotels via "trip advisor" and there seem to be more hotels availabe on the venere web site..is this web site as reputable?

kybourpon - i have booked the Mulino di Querece Grossa on your recoomendation,however, i am a bit concerned as when i bring this hotel up on trip advisor - it brings me to the dirtest hotels.. should i be concerned? From there it notes the reasturant as being a great place to eat, but can't find, and it may be me, actual hotel reviews. We leave in a couple of weeks so looking to mkae sure we are all set.

thanks for your help.
