The Locanda Toscanini in Southern Chianti (Tuscany) is the recently renovated historic inn where the famous conductor Arturo Toscanini sojourned in the 1930s.
Now guests can stay in the nine rooms (with some original furnishings) where Toscanini and his entourage sought the healing cures of a local doctor and enjoyed the calm beauty and great food of rural Tuscany.
The historic home and its former olive mill - now an events room and restaurant - is located in the rural village of Piazze, just outside the charming medieval town of Cetona in the Siena (Tuscany) region
Located midway between Rome and Florence - less than two hours from the Rome airport and ten minutes from the Fabro and Chiusi exits on the A1 highway - it is just a five minute drive from the world famous thermal spas in San Casciano dei Bagni - Fonteverde (in the picture). 
The Locanda has an events room for up to 50 people - ideal for small conferences, receptions or family get-togethers, a living room and media room, as well as a small gym and massage room. It’s the perfect spot for travellers looking for simple elegance in a family-like atmosphere.
For a small extra charge, it is also possible to relax at a private pool fifteen minutes away on foot.
The two proprietors - architect Michele and his wife Courtney, a journalist based in Rome - together with their English-speaking staff - will do their best to ensure you have a truly exceptional Tuscan experience.
