The Villa of Relais Certosa originated as the guest quarters of the Certosa dei Galluzo Monastery, one of the most important monasteries in Europe, a destination of pilgrimages
and which hosted hundreds of religious scholars, and, before the Napoleonic pillages, preserved over 500 exquisite works of art where even today one can admire them when visiting this antique Monastery, still occupied by the Cistercian monks. It was renovated along with other buildings on the property to make a total of 63 rooms and 6 suites, some decorated in rustic Tuscan style and some modern. The rooms and suites overlook the magnificent park setting surrounding them, and have a view of the Tuscan hills and the Certosa.
