Relais Borgo di Cortefreda

The term Relais, of French origin, was originally used to indicate the rest stations for the postal carriers along their route: a resting place where they could change horses in order to be able to perform their service more quickly. And, this term “relais” retained this concept of a resting place even if now another fundamental meaning has been added, elegance. And these are the main characteristics of the Relais Borgo di Cortefreda. A four-star hotel, full of charm, and with a unique and modest elegance. It offers 55 rooms - from standard to junior suites - that offer panoramic or poolside views, balconies or terraces whose interiors are taken care of in every detail and offer the client all of their warm charm: sophisticated materials, arte povera furnishings, hand decorated walls and warm colours adorn the areas and the lounges, evoking suggestive atmospheres from other eras. Its authenticity does not however rule out modern comforts: central air conditioning, telephone with direct line, satellite TV, safe, mini bar, hair dryer and internet connection. An accurate renovation and enhancement project has made this hotel a distinguished residence, ready to welcome guests who are looking for a quality vacation that is also far from the crowds. Here, clients can enjoy the hotel’s intimacy and relax in its quiet location, taking advantage of the beautiful pool located on a charming and natural panoramic terrace - equipped with a comfortable whirlpool system - or getting pampered in the relaxation zone, rejuvenating themselves with the sauna, massages, gym or simply casually chatting over a cup of herbal tea. To complete this magnificent picture, is the large “Cortefreda” restaurant where traditional products from the most genuine and simple Tuscan tradition can be tasted, where ancient flavours remain unaltered. A large locale (seating 150-200) that is suitable for the intimacy of couples dining as well as banquets and cocktail parties. Plus, the hotel has three areas available for business meetings... In short, whatever the need may be, for business or vacation, the customer is a true guest at Relais Borgo di Cortefreda, not a tourist, and a stay there is a dream of wellness, a seductive world of tradition and charm.
