We were recommended this place by a respected interior designer who really knows his stuff, while travelling on our honeymoon. So we kind of knew it would be cool.
We slept beneath magical painted owls on the ceiling, and loved bumbling around the hilltop village. Breakfast was served beneath a hundred year old wisteria. At one point I thought I'd gone back in time, and put on a pair of tights. My wife found me and totally understood my vibe. It was a big moment in our new marriage.

Charming and magical

We were charmed by this spacious b&b located in a very old and quite grand building. The furniture and rooms are beautiful. They give you the choice of many lovely rooms to, eg, sit and read with a cup of tea. We put our bottles and prosciutto in their fridge and made ourselves at home. The bed is very comfortable and the shower top-notch. Windows all have amazing views of the Tuscan landscape seen from the height of a medieval hill town. 
Palaia is an old-world place with very quaint shops, tbh not for tourists. But it's a lot of fun to be off the beaten track. 
There's a choice of good-value, authentic restaurants. 
Day trip to Volterra highly recommended - as is this place to stay. We plan to return. 

Unique quiet hotel-b&b

Greeted by the very friendly Violetta on arrival who showed us to our room upstairs. 3 storeys up, but lift available which we used to take our bags up. Very pleased with our room which was roomy also another  little room adjacent for our use, with a single bed.  All furnishings are antiques and wall decor. in the rooms we saw were painted fresco style. You could spend days just looking at the various objects lying around in the shared communal areas. If you can read Italian there is plenty of old books to read. We felt the garden could do with a little bit more care, but as it was getting colder in the day we did not use it.
Breakfast consisted of bread, meats, cheese, cake and fruits. Juice available and coffee at the push of a button at leisure once you have been shown how to use the machine. At least five excellent Restaurants to chose from in the town.
There is a clock tower and this rings every hour and does this twice. Yes! at midnight 12 then 5 minutes later 12 more. Apparently it was a system to ensure workers got up at the right time in the morning. We got used to it though.
The private parking is an absolute boom. Easy to access and secure.
Palaia is a beautiful place to stay with major places to visit close by. Pisa 40km and Volterra 20km. Also Ideal for those early flights from Pisa International.  We will certainly be back and use it for our last few days of the main holiday.

5 nights in this beautiful, interesting and unusual place

what a lovely treat to stay here.  Every room was unique and the place was a maze.  Got lost constantly in the building but was so fun.  The hot tub was out of order which was a shame. The breakfast was amazzzzzzzing.   The town takes about 5 minutes to walk through.  And the clock tower bells ring all night. So if you are a light sleeper you will go crazy.  The bar across the street serves great food and drinks a good prices.

Beautiful quaint place

We stayed at Leones for a second year in a row.  We can't say enough about the accommodations, and especially the very friendly and excellent service from Violeta and her two daughters. Manuela and Violeta were very accommodating with our schedule during the three weeks that we stayed there.  The town folk in Palaia remembered us and were very friendly - including buying us drinks at the local pub.

Palaia is in central Tuscany and is a great location for day trips to Florence, Siena, Volterra, Pontedera, Lucca, and Pisa.

We will definitely be returning to Leones during our next trip to Italy.
