Antica Dimora Residenza d'Arte Torrita di Siena

The Residenza d'Arte is situated in the Medieval village of Torrita di Siena, and within easy reach of the celebrated Tuscan towns of Siena, Pienza, Montepulciano and Cortona.

This unique hotel, set in a landscape scattered with cypress and olive trees, represents a fascinating blend of age-old architecture and contemporary art.
The delightfully spacious bedrooms and suites of the Residenza d'Arte all feature welcoming open fireplaces, exposed wooden beam ceilings, ancient stone walls and arches.

These quintessentially Tuscan interiors form the perfect setting for a number of carefully selected paintings and sculptures. The rooms, which all offer beautiful views, are equipped with every modern convenience. Breakfast is served in the gazebo located in the hotel's panoramic garden or in the Residenza d'Arte's dining salon.

Whilst staying at the Residenza d'Arte, guests have the opportunity to participate in painting courses and visit the permanent art exhibition of Anna Izzo. Izzo, painter, sculptor and designer of international acclaim, has exhibited in New York, Amsterdam, Moscow, Rome, Milan and Capri. Her work features in many private and public collections and has been reviewed by the most important critics of contemporary art.

In the immediate vicinity of the Residenza d'Arte, lies a tiny 15th century chapel in which religious services, including weddings, are still performed to this very day. The Residenza d'Arte is available for exclusive rent.
