Borgo Argenina is GORGEOUS. The view, the grounds, the accommodations, everything. The location is perfect and a great place to jump to Florence, Sienna, etc... We stayed in the Villa Oliviera and we loved the little house. It was very stylish and comfortable. The owner, Elena, takes the time to sit with you upon your arrival to go over a... More

Dear lady, I was so disappointed reading your review on tripadvisor that didn’t sleep all night. Can’t believe! I apologias, but absolutely didn’t want to offend you. I love my job and my guest and I’m happy when everybody feels happy at my home Borgo Argenina. In the morning I talk and have fun with each one at breakfast and... More

I had no idea what to expect when I arrived at the Borgo Argenina.This was my first experience in a B&B. Here was everything I was looking for: beautiful country in the midst of vineyards and olive groves backdropped by hillsides more stunning than any postcards, and a wonderful corner room whose ambience matched the beauty and serenity of the...

My trip to Borgo Argenina was simply amazing! Myself and several family members (13 to be exact!) spent some time at Elena's over the US Thanksgiving holiday. The setting, the villa, the food, hospitality and attention to detail are second to none. The villa is so warm and welcoming and Elena a wonderful hostess. I was sad to see our... More

Our 4 night stay at Borgo Argenina was the highlight of our trip to Tuscany. The rural setting was beautiful, with long distance views. Elena's compound is attractive and perfectly maintained, with flowers all around. Our room was spacious and attractive. Breakfasts were tasty and inviting. We enjoyed a fabulous dinner and wine with other guests the night we arrived,... More

I would love to say we had a marvelous time at Borgo Argenina, but sadly, that was not the case. I have never written a review with such horrible news. First of all I have to say that Borgo Argenina is a very nice place as far as the buildings and accommodations go. Our problems were with the owner/innkeeper. There... More

We stayed for four nights at B.Argenina and enjoyed it thoroughly. It is located in such a beautiful place, you could happily spend several hours just sitting out on the patio looking out over the vineyards. Elena has renovated the buildings ith a perfect eye for detail, and even the breakfast is well laid out with nice touches and no... More

My husband and I and two of our adult children spent two days in Elena's beautiful paradise in Chianti. We all loved the accommodation, comfy beds, private roomy bathrooms and of course the lovely decor of this amazing hamlet. Elena went out of her way to assist us with dinner bookings and had great suggestions for day trips. She welcomed... More

I felt as though I was in the middle of a painters canvas. The scenary is breathtaking. They trees and grapevines and the rolling... More

We spent 6 nights here at this beautiful B and B. Elena Nappa graciously invites you into her home, serves you chianti, gives you a map with her advice for your trip, introduces you to the lovely four legged girls, Guseippina and Pasqualina and the vacation begins...ahhh. Such a peaceful setting. Perfect for relaxing or exploring the region. Elena has... More

Borgo Argenina is heavenly! You can't beat the location: an hour from Florence, half hour to Siena and in the heart of the Chianti region! Borgo Argenina is a wonderfully renovated, historic hamlet Elena Nappa, the owner, has done herself. She has a wonderful eye for the appropriate details in her renovations. The setting is absolutely wonderful - no matter... More
