Scheduled to open in June 2026, Chapter Chianti marks the second property in Chapter Italia's portfolio, bringing Marco Cilia's vision of Medieval village retreat to the hills of Tuscany.
Just 45 minutes from Florence
Located within a restored 16th-century medieval village just 45 minutes from Florence, the 82-room property challenges expectations of what a Tuscan retreat can be. South African designer Tristan Du Plessis of Studio A has transformed the historic village into a cutting-edge design destination that challenges conventions while respecting its historical heritage. Instead of focusing on terracotta and antiques, Du Plessis uses clean architectural lines, exposed stone and modern Italian design elements to create spaces that are closer to an urban lifestyle hotel than a country retreat, while remaining deeply connected to the landscape and history of the place.
Three restaurants and a 500sqm spa
The property has three restaurants and three bars celebrating both Tuscan tradition and international flavours, as well as a 500sqm that reinterprets wellness as a communal experience. Organized activities immerse guests in authentic Tuscan life with truffle hunting, olive oil harvesting, mountain biking, hiking and stargazing. The Mansion, a five-bedroom villa with a private pool and outdoor entertainment area, offers the ultimate in privacy.
