Hotel L'Ultimo Mulino Gaiole in Chianti - Tuscany

Hotel L'Ultimo Mulino occupies a mill built in the distant 15th century and only recently converted in hotel so as to provide superb guest accommodation for those visiting the medieval village of Gaiole in Chianti, in Tuscany's celebrated Chianti region.

Centuries of history and the very latest in modern technology merge within the walls of this fascinating edifice; masterly restored so as to maintain great part of the original architectural features.

Guest bedrooms are all decorated in delicate neutral tones in perfect harmony with the original building materials and the surrounding landscape. For those looking for something particularly luxurious, there are rooms with whirlpool baths and attractive patio gardens.

Excellent Tuscan food and wine is served at Hotel L'Ultimo Mulino's restaurant. The hotel chef takes great care in selecting the finest local ingredients for his flavour packed seasonal dishes; he will even be happy to take guests with him to the local butcher's to witness the selection of the premium Chianina beef needed for an exceptional "Fiorentina". Those wishing to learn more about the art of Tuscan cooking, have the opportunity to participate in his cooking lessons, held regularly at the hotel.

In the gardens of the hotel, overlooking the marvellous rolling Chianti countryside, there is an attractive swimming pool and sunny terrace where breakfast and lunches are served during the summer season.

When not lazing by the pool, guests staying at the Hotel L'Ultimo Mulino have the opportunity to head off to the neighbouring towns of Greve or Castellina in Chianti, or drive just a little further to the magnificent medieval city of Siena.
