  • About us

  •  Il Bottaccio, a Boutique Art Hotel and Relais&Chateaux: A Timeless Retreat in Tuscany

    Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, Il Bottaccio Art Hotel R&C is a haven of elegance and serenity, set within a beautifully restored 18th-century water mill. This exclusive retreat offers a refined yet intimate atmosphere, where history, art, and hospitality blend seamlessly to create an unforgettable experience.

    With only eight spacious and exquisitely designed suites, Il Bottaccio ensures the highest level of privacy and comfort. Each suite is a masterpiece, adorned with curated artworks, antique furnishings, and bespoke details that reflect the property’s rich heritage and artistic soul. The warm ambiance, paired with modern amenities, creates the perfect balance between tradition and contemporary luxury.

    Beyond its stunning interiors, Il Bottaccio is a sanctuary for the senses. Its gourmet restaurant celebrates Tuscan flavors with a refined twist, offering a culinary journey that delights even the most discerning palates. The spa, inspired by holistic wellness, provides a tranquil escape for relaxation and rejuvenation.

    Surrounded by lush gardens and the timeless beauty of Tuscany, Il Bottaccio is more than just a hotel—it’s an exclusive retreat where luxury meets art, and every stay becomes a cherished memory. 

    Water, art and marble: the characteristic signs of Bottaccio

    The sea of Versilia, torrents and streams that descended from the Apuan Alps to move the big wheel that can still be admired in the garden today.

    The marble quarries where Michelangelo chose the ‘white gold’ which he then transformed into his immortal works. Where contemporary artists have found the raw material for the creations which today are reflected in the water of a swimming pool in the center of a large restaurant room, where the olives were once harvested.

    The D’Anna couple, gallery owners, patrons and owners of a private English college, have created a family residence at Bottaccio and, as they like to point out, a hotel for those who don’t like hotels.

    Il Bottaccio is the ideal place to visit Lucca and Pisa, the Cinque Terre, Lunigiana and Torre del Lago with its Puccini Festival, which every year renews the magic of the great Maestro’s works. Pietrasanta is one step away: a city of art where, among ancient and modern marbles, international artists have chosen their residence as Moore and Botero had already done.
