Palazzo del Mercante is a charming historic residence located in the heart of Montepulciano's old town, just a short walk from Piazza Grande. Featuring six elegantly restored double rooms, the palace blends the allure of antiquity with modern comfort, providing a unique and enchanting stay. The property stands out for its prime location and the breathtaking views that can be enjoyed from all the rooms. The panoramic rooms offer stunning glimpses of Montepulciano, the Renaissance rooftops, the Val di Chiana, Lake Trasimeno, Montepulciano, and Chiusi, extending to the Tuscan Apennines. In contrast, the Mercante Superior and Poliziano Classic rooms overlook Via Ricci, revealing the village's hidden corners and the oratory of Sant’Antonio, which now serves as the home of the Contrada di Talosa. This historic building, protected by monumental constraints, displays the ancient coat of arms of the Minerbetti family, a noble Florentine lineage from the 13th century, on its façade. The renovation preserved the original architecture, maintaining exposed beams, wooden floors, and travertine details, which are harmoniously combined with modern elements to create welcoming and bright spaces. Palazzo del Mercante is passionately and professionally run by Gabriella and Angelo's family, who have over 35 years of experience in hospitality. Today, their children Simone, Cristina, and Alessio warmly welcome guests alongside a young and trained staff, eager to uncover the secrets of Montepulciano and the surrounding valleys, such as Val d’Orcia and Val di Chiana. Each stay here is a plunge into history, immersed in the beauty and tradition of Tuscany.
