A relaxing family vacation

This was a perfect stay. We are a family with a 3 year old, and it was great for both families and couples. The spa was amazing for a moment to wind down and relax, and drinks by the pool were lovely. The whole space of the hotel was a wonderful escape into a peaceful vacation with great food, wine, and relaxation.

Perfect hotel to end our Italy-tour

Very nice hotel located in the middle of vineyards. Very impressed by our room! Reaxing and calm atmosphere. We had a 5-year old with us, and we felt very welcome by the staff (her own bed and a bath robe), but some of the other guests was maybe not so impressed by people bringing children, so maybe not a place to bring a bunch of noisy children. Food was very good, and good service. Only one outdoor swimming pool was open. Spa had a pleasant and calm atmosphere.

This is a great hotel with a lovely Bistro and a two Michelin star restaurant. We ended up extending our two day stay to four days. We didn’t eat at the Michelin restaurant but did eat at the Bistro which was lovely. Unfortunately the Bistro was either booked out or closed for three of the nights we stayed so I recommend checking in advance if you do not want to drive to restaurants away from the hotel. Staff were exceptional.

Lux Escape in the Heart of Piedmont Wine Country

My partner and I recently stayed at Relais Sant’Uffizio in the heart of Piedmont, and it was a truly peaceful and rejuvenating escape. Set in a beautifully restored 16th-century monastery, the hotel’s charm lies in its blend of historic elegance and modern comfort. The Aquanatura Spa was the highlight—immaculate and incredibly relaxing. The hydrotherapy pool, panoramic sauna, steam rooms, and ice cascade created a complete wellness experience. The time we spent there was restive and deeply restorative. Every detail, from the calming design to the herbal tea lounge, added to the sense of luxury. The hotel grounds were equally impressive. Surrounded by vineyards and manicured gardens, the outdoor pool area and bar was perfect for unwinding. I especially loved walking through the quiet paths in the early evening—truly serene. The restaurants, bars, and extensive wine list exceeded expectations and rounded out this magical visit. If you’re looking for a romantic getaway in the heart of the rolling hills and vineyards of Piemonte, this place is a gem. We left feeling refreshed and can’t wait to return.

Être à l'écoute des clients.

Il s'agit de mon quatrième séjour dans cet établissement. Le personnel fait preuve d'une grande courtoisie. Les chambres sont superbes et idéalement situées. Cependant, je constate que mes remarques concernant la propreté du SPA, formulées lors de mon précédent séjour, n'ont pas été prises en compte. Dommage

La struttura è molto bella , ma non sono rimasta contenta della camera che mi hanno assegnato, troppo si margini del corpo principale ed ogni volta dovevi passare da fuori per accedere ai servizi , un disagio col freddo soprattutto per andare alla Spa. Avevo prenotato una camera prestige 2 mesi prima per essere sicura di avere un confort adeguato al prezzo ma non sono stata soddisfatta. La temperatura in camera non era regolabile ed era fredda ed anche non insonorizzata. Il centro benessere avrebbe potenzialità enormi ma necessita di maggiore cura nei dettagli: aree relax più accoglienti e calde; temperatura della piscina più calda ad esempio. Ottimo il ristorante stellato quello sì che vale la visita.
