General Description:
Built in 1314 thanks to Cardinal Ricardo Petroni, this ancient monastery was designed for meditation and prayer and is located in the countryside, 2 km from Siena's famous Piazza del Campo. The property passed from hand to hand until 1969, the year in which Mrs Anna Grossi Recordati fell in love with the majestic, ruined complex and decided to restore it to its former glory. In 1975 the Certosa di Maggiano was turned into a hotel and became part of the Relais & Chateaux brand. The Carthusian Monastery of Maggiano is the oldest amongst the ones built in Tuscany. Siena built three in the 14th century of which two still exist: Maggiano (1314) and Pontignano (1343). Turned into a hotel in 1975, the Certosa di Maggiano offers you a variety of thoughtfully appointed areas in which to spend different moments of the day. The "Emperor's Hall" is so-named for the twelve 18th century paintings, portraying the 12 Roman Emperors, which line its walls. The Library, dominated by an antique alder-wood bookcase, also features sofas upholstered with fine silk created by the Antico Setificio Fiorentino. The grounds are vast and among the olive groves and vineyards one finds our tennis court, helicopter landing, and a heated, open-air pool. Near the pool, there is also a small fitness room. Please note: as the hotel is a XIV century establishment there is no lift. The 17 rooms of the Certosa di Maggiano, corresponding to what were 17 monastic cells, are situated on 3 floors. Differing in style, colour scheme, view and furnishings, they share a common simple, refined elegance, in addition to all the modern comforts.
