Here at 101 Holidays we are building a collection of hotel recommendations from leading travel writers on Twitter. Our contributors each reveal a personal favourite place to stay where a double room costs no more than £150 ($250).
Today’s tip comes from Donald Strachan, who writes travel for publications including the Independent, Sunday Telegraph and Frommers.com, and is known on Twitter as hackneye. His newest guidebook is to Tuscany.
Donald says: “Hotel Villa Rinascimento is a 15th-century villa with loggia and pool 15 minutes from Lucca, 15 from Pisa. Olive grove views, quality dining, scrambled eggs for breakfast.” Doubles cost €141.
