Il Ciocco, Barga Italy
I was at this fantastic location for a conference this month, I have to say absolutely amazing experience. Word of warning beofre I start, I was given all the good treatment a conference delegate recieves, this may or may not be true if you are planning to stay there on your own without affiliation to any group.
The location was amazing, set right in the heart of Tuscany on a hill, very close to the little town of Barga, this hotel had everything one could ask for, good food, good service, a large outdoor pool (with a cute pool boy) a gym, and clean comfortable rooms with great views of the valley. Most of the hotel staff, spoke or understood English and were more than willing to be of assistance. Various trips to Barga and Lucca were organized by the hotel, and everything was on time and as expected. The only problem is, this hotel is up on a hill, far away from any kind of shopping, so if you are staying here, make sure you bring everything you need for the stay, shopping for simple things such as aspirin etc.. may be impossible.
Highly recommend this hotel.
