About this property

Once a 15th-century Franciscan monastery, Chiostro Delle Monache is just outside Volterra's Etruscan walls, next to the Presidio Ospedaliero Santa Maria Maddalena hospital. It offers en suite rooms, 2 free parking areas, and an original period cloister. The rooms at Delle Monache are simply furnished, and feature tiled floors and wooden furniture. On site you will find a café, a reading room and a TV lounge. Free Wi-Fi access is available in these public areas. There is also a children's play area. Breakfast is served in a frescoed room, where you can also have dinner on request. The monastery was built in 1445, along with the adjacent Church of Saint Girolamo. The cloister is by Michelozzo, a sculptor and architect in Donatello's workshop. The property is 1 km from Volterra's Porta a Selci gateway, and about an hour's drive from Pisa, Florence and Siena. Public buses stop outside the entrance.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 8.7 for a two-person trip.

The place is nice. It is very clean and has all the basics. The fact that it had a parking is also a bonus. It is 20 minutes walking from the center so it is nice.

Hotel was easy to find, despite being over a kilometre from where we got dropped off. The food was excellent, especially on our first night. The staff were very friendly and always willing to help. There were lots of local bus stops around within...
