“Charming, comfortable, convenient”

Fabulous in every respect. Clearly previous visitors returning to this most charming place. We were cycling and decided to have a rest day, could not have chosen a better place. Multiple day stays recommended, you won’t regret it. Bikes were safely locked in the garden.

Cinzia the lovely host at Il Gardino Segreto was very helpful and kind, nothing is to much trouble for her to sort out. The location is perfect, right in the old town but also very quiet. We stayed in the studio which was small but perfect for our short stay. Everything was very clean and the breakfast was a bonus. If I stayed in Pienza again this is where I'd look first.

“Nice place to stay in a historic town centre.”

Location: Perfect. Beautiful garden. Landlady Cinzia is genuinely friendly. She is very welcoming.

“Lovely location with unique garden and great staff. Could be significantly improved with better seating area.”

The location and staff were excellent!! Could not have asked for better. It was quiet and the garden was quite nice.

The location is great and there is a beautiful garden in front of the rooms, unfortunately the weather wasn't amazing, so we couldn't enjoy it as much as we would have liked. The host was helpful and communicative. The room was spacious and had the things we needed.

“Fantastic stay at this beautiful property. The perfect place to stay when exploring Tuscany”

Wonderful little property in a secluded garden. Nice space to use as a base to explore the stunning town of Pienza and surrounding areas. Cinzia was an excellent host and was always available to answer any questions we had!

Cinzia was friendly and accommodating. The apartment was lovely, including a gorgeous courtyard and great snacks for breakfast. It couldn't have been better. Thank you.

The location was great and the space was perfect for few days and for a couple . Cynthia was amazing with all our questions.

Everything was perfect! Thanks!

“Perfect location of a nice and friendly hotel in Pienza.”

Perfect location in the famous medieval and esthetically wonderful city of Pienza, in the Val d'Orcia. Nice room. Very convenient garden (in the city !). Very friendly owner who welcomes you. Highly recommended.

“Nice stay, but if you are light sleeper, we would recommend other location.”

The garden.

“Chose Pienza as a place so I could just relax after a hectic 6 weeks of touring and couldn’t have”

I’m ceoliac so sometimes it’s difficult but cinzia helped me with this

“Perfect stay”

Everything was just great! The room is very nice and spacious, the location is perfect in the old center, and Cinzia was very friendly. I definitely recommend this place!

Lovely accommodation, good bed, nice hostess

“I will come back to Gardino Segreto for sure :)”

Thank you Cinzia for such a wonderful stay at your beautiful, tranquil and cosy place. The room was very clean and spacious and the bed was very comfortable. We also enjoyed your little garden where we could sit for a while after a hot day. We liked a location very much too - just 2 min walking distance from the centre of Pienza. We recommend this place to everyone who likes places with atmosphere.

“A brilliant stay in the heart of Pienza”

Brilliant location, right in the middle of the town. Lovely place, had everything we needed. Very quiet and a lovely garden. Comfortable room, a 10/10 stay!

“Perfect location and great host!”

The location was absolutely perfect, literally inside Pienza and the large garden with furniture for each guest was a plus to have breakfast or a nice drink in the evening. Cinzia the host was incredibly professional and looked after us very well, ensuring we had everything we needed. A really great host!
