Salvia Hotel
Val d'Orcia · Since 2007
Restored by hand inside an 1782 stone farmhouse above the Val d'Orcia, every suite at Salvia opens to the herb gardens, takes its light from a different window, and is dressed in textiles chosen by the Bertelli family — never repeated. Reserve direct and the rate you see here is guaranteed to be at least 12% below any listing on Booking.com, Expedia or Airbnb, audited quarterly.

From a snug 22 m² single-suite tucked under the chestnut beams to the 58 m² Bertelli Suite that takes the whole eastern wing, each room is a one-off composition of stone, linen, reclaimed oak and estate-grown herbs. The from-rates shown are our direct nightly rates for two guests, low season, and include the cooked-to-order breakfast.
Our smallest double, named for the herb bed directly below its single arched window. A quiet, monastic room — limewashed walls, raw linen, a writing shelf under the beams.
Built around a freestanding stone tub set into the original 1782 chimney breast. Best at dusk, when the rosemary outside the window catches the last copper light.
A corner room on the first floor with its own small terrace above the lavender field. Softest light of any suite in the house — chosen, more than once, by visiting painters.
Two connected rooms — one for the grown-ups, one for small travellers — sharing a single ancient oak window. The suite we return to most often with our own children.
Ten further suites — including the Bertelli Suite and our three garden-level rooms with private outdoor baths — are listed individually on enquiry. Reply by email within 22 minutes during business hours, or call us directly.
We have stayed in nine small hotels across Tuscany over the years and never once come back to the same one. Salvia is the exception. Our room — Rosmarino — had a stone tub set into a wall older than most countries we have visited, and the breakfast the next morning was three quiet courses of whatever was pulled from the garden that day. We booked through the hotel directly; the rate was lower than anything I found later on Booking, and Marco replied to my email in under twenty minutes. We have already booked for autumn.
