Hotel Il Giglio

Several years ago, when this hotel in the center of town was taken over by a new family, the tired old pensione was transformed into a board-rated three-star hotel -- serious competition for the Hotel dei Capitani . The hotel sports a rustic theme (beamed ceilings and tiled floors) in slightly smaller rooms. The best part is the view (from eight of the rooms) of the cliff-clinging houses of Montalcino, to your left, and the rumpled patchwork of green valleys stretching out below. Il Giglio has a pair of slightly larger rooms, each with a futon chair, good for families. The family also runs a Tuscan trattoria. If they run out of room, the owners will send you to their five rental rooms or one efficiency apartment in the annex on a medieval street around the corner. Some of these have painted stuccoed ceilings, but there are no phones (hence the lower price).
