The Hotel Capitani is situated in part of the eighteenth-century “Catasto Leopoldino” in the historic center of Montalcino. However, there is reason to believe that the building was used in the Middle Ages as a shelter for the Sienese people fleeing from the Florentine army. Today many of the hotel rooms afford a splendid view, taking in the Val d’Orcia and a panoramic garden, where a swimming pool has been created to resemble a medieval fountain.
