This picturesque $2,000 a night Italian hotel has been voted the best in the world


Looking for a top-notch hotel? Consider booking yourself a stay at Italy’s Rosewood Castiglion Del Bosco! The property has been rated as the best in the world as per the yearly rankings by travel magazine Travel + Leisure.


As done each year, T+L’s readers voted in a survey and rated hotels based on parameters including their facilities, location, service, food, and overall value. The results were then compiled in the Travel + Leisure World’s Best Awards with Rosewood Castiglion Del Bosco rising at the top.


What makes the hotel special is the scenery and top-class amenities it entails. Situated on a 5,000-acre, the 800-year-old estate in Tuscany is surrounded by vineyards and provides unobstructed views of the Unesco-protected Val d’Orcia Natural Park and the tiny hilltop town of Montalcino.

It also features a host of other amenities such as tennis courts, a spa, a cooking school, and even its own winery. The hotel comes with 19 suites in total and packs in an unparalleled culinary experience for guests at its in-house restaurants.
