Il Bottaccio

This place is a hidden gem! The property was previously an olive oil mill. We stayed in the room with the olive grinder and the collection vat is now a bath tub! The staff is beyond amazing and we had dinner at their restaurant all three nights….It was that great! Cooking class was interactive, personal and delicious! Fresh, homemade, baked pastry every morning… we can’t wait to go back.

The property is outstanding and a credit to the relais châteaux brand. Set in beautiful Tuscany the hotel is beautifully maintained the staff and service is exceptional. Prime location for exploring the rest of Tuscany. Would certainly recommend a stay at IL Bottaccio.

Incredible experience in the foothills, 15 minutes from the beach clubs and from Pietrasanta. The chef is creative and masterful, the grounds are beautifully maintained, the Royal Suite could be worth the extra cost, and most importantly, the staff was attentive to our every need.

We were extremely pleased with the accommodations, the grounds and the facility. The food was outstanding, both breakfast and dinner. However, the personalized service and kindness extended by Irena and Chef Mosca made this a must return again for us.

A top culinary gastronomy and beautiful boutique hotel Relais & Châteaux. Discreet, passionate, perfection in all details and great works of art… highly recommended for foodies. Warm hospitality, thanks Irina!

a great hotel, great restaurant worthy of Michelin stars, perfect ambiance. this was our fifth time there and we certainly intend to come back. the décor both inside and outside is great and so is the friendly service.

Il Bottaccio brings all the culture and warmth of Italy to life! Our stay was EXTRAORDINARY! We have traveled the world and this hotel and staff exceeded our wildest dreams! The staff has created a true Italian home for its customers…it is like visiting your Italian family. The rooms are spacious, clean and unique. The gardens are beautiful and inviting. The staff is truly the most amazing people whom you call family by the end of your stay. The service is impeccable, personal and gracious. The food is delicious and inviting and so ITALIAN!! Irina is truly one of the best concierge/managers we have ever encountered in our travels. She helped us from day trips to reservations to tour guides to helping us personally when one of our family fell ill. Nino, the chef/GM, is outstanding not only as the head chef but was always available to us for any need we had. His cooking school was AMAZING! Aldo, Alicia, Guilin and Marcia provided us with top-notch service and always with a smile. Katy and Aurora kept our rooms immaculate. The whole staff has a passion for their hotel and making sure every customer is happy and full and joyful. Starting the mornings in the garden sipping cafe to visiting the seashore to delicious culinary delights for dinner….Il Bottaccio is Italy at its very finest! Everyone should have the honor and privilege of staying at this hotel! We will be back again and again !!

A colleague and myself visited for two days on business and were very impressed indeed with Il Bottaccio as a destination. It is luxurious in every way and set in a very beautiful area, but it is also very relaxed, welcoming and understated at the same time. The perfect get-away for business or pleasure. Thank you to all the lovely staff.

It was a fantastic time in Italy. We wanted to visit Tuscany, and choosing Il Bottaccio made our vacation First Class! With the help of Aldo and Irina, it was possible to visit all the best restaurants with magnificent views without any effort. They care so much about how we will get to the places, helping us with the timetable and suggestions, not pushing anything, but genuinely wanting to benefit from the local point of view. We wouldn't be able to do it without them. The food in the restaurant was terrific, and the chef Nino Mosca is a lovely, charming gentleman. He cares about every visitor, how comfortable they are, what they would like, and how to make their vacation better. We want to return to Il Bottaccio as soon as possible and suggest it to everyone who would like to visit Tuscany and enjoy a unique experience and atmosphere of well-being, art, and serenity. Thank you so much to everyone in Il Bottaccio who help to made our stay a paradise .
