As you know, Italians are mostly proud of their regional origins (in a different way and level from region to region). Either you choose a Hotel in Florence, in Rome or in the deep south of the boot, everywhere you’ll find Italian Restaurants promoting local food like it was the best thing you'll taste in your life! No tricks: if you love Italian food, it can really be the best you have ever tasted. The assortment is so wide and the differences among regions are so distinct that we have a huge variety of original dishes and creative variants.
In order to help you to unravel the forest of Spaghetti alla Bolognese, Bruschette and Tiramisù, I’ve made a list (what a hard work!!) of charming and luxury Italian hotels whith the best Restaurants. Here it is!!

The two restaurants of Castel Monastero, “La Contrada” and “La Cantina”, delight their guests with tasty Tuscan recipes. The popular chef Gordon Ramsey, who has a personal collection of 10 Michelin stars as well as a big passion for Tuscany, is in charge of the Menu.
