Luxury hotels and resorts

Buongiorno Ringraziando per la cortesia e l'ospitalità mi permetto di suggerire: +una maggior cura nel servizio ai tavoli (tempestività) +un menu più vario e con costi più in linea con la concorrenza; +una maggior cura del verde Saluti Innocenzo Lucio Francione

Wonderful one night stay. Friendly and courteous staff. Fine dining and good breakfast. Relaxing environment

The establishment is maintained impeccably, the landscaping and interior design are very pleasing, the staff is very helpful and the room accommodation very comfortable. The restaurant was very disappointing. The menu was rather restricted in choice and the wines over-priced, but the most disappointing part was when we ordered the Chef's surprise menu with five wines to accompany. In the following evenings we found that, for the most part, the "surprise" menu was really a selection of dishes from the standard menu!

Our stay at the Il Podere was most enjoyable. It is a fabulous hotel which we will recommend to friends. The only improvement I can think of would be if you could arrange for the purchase of bar snacks in the afternoon, as the time between breakfast and dinner (8pm) is very long. In England we eat much earlier than 8pm and, with a child, it is not easy to wait from breakfast to dinner.
