Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Beautiful place to stay and rest in lovely garden with pool. Drinks can be ordered at the little bar. Great italien breakfast with homemade cakes, fruits, yoghurt and for sure eggs, bacon, cheese, bread. Staff very nice and helpful. Parking place onsite and shed for bicycles available. Castellina in walking distance and easy to reach.
we stayed in separate house in nice room but could hear other guests through walls …. no prob for us but maybe other guests might be disturbed
The area is beautiful, the staff is so kind . We loved this place for sure
Cela fais 2 fois que je viens dans cet hôtel, toujours aussi charmant et très bien situé. l'accueil et l'attention que l'on vous porte est irréprochable, les chambres sont très jolies avec une literie très confortable, très propre, ainsi que le sanitaires. Très bons petits déjeuners dans un extérieur des plus agréable et calme. Très bien situé pour les ballades dans cette magnifique région de la Toscane
Regrettons qu'il n'y ait pas de restauration, mais il y a des restaurants de qualité tout à côté (même rue) ou dans le centre de Castellina.
Helpful staff Beautiful location. Easy walk to town and restaurants
Na pewno dobra lokalizacja blisko Castellina in Chianti. Basen i ogród też fajne. Bardzo dobra obsługa- uśmiechnięta i sympatyczna:). Śniadania jak na Włochy ok.
Zaskoczenie przy wyjedzie - oplata 50 euro od pary za ,, kieliszkowe,, czyli pożyczenie kieliszkow do wina( żaden się nie zbił) . I nie chodzi o to że trzeba zapłacić, a o to , że nikt nas nie uprzedził o tym wcześniej. Chodzi o wybór .
Het personeel was enorm vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Verder was het ontbijt uitstekend en was de kamer elke dag zeer netjes en schoon. Met de auto kon je alles makkelijk bereiken.
Het enige wat ons tegenzat waren wespen bij het zwembad, maar daar kan het hotel weinig aan doen!
Alles war perfekt! Wunderschönes gemütliches Zimmer, sehr sauber! Freundliches Personal, leckeres Frühstück. Die Anlage ist sehr schön und ruhig, toller Pool und in fussnähe gute Restaurants.

Alles...vom Empfang bei der Ankunft, das Zimmer, der Pool, das Frühstück, die Lage. 😍
Es gab nichts auszusetzen.
La cortesia dello Staff che è molto attento alle esigenze della sua clientela. La stanza che viene ogni giorno ben pulita ed ordinata. La strutturata è molto curata con un grande giardino ombreggiato e servizio bar e bella piscina. Le colazioni sono abbondanti e ovviamente continentali.
Non hanno un ristorante interno (sapevamo ad ogni modo che non c’era) però non son attrezzati per pranzi o cene veloci. Il primo locale comunque è raggiungibile a piedi ad un 1 km di distanza a Castellina in Chianti che è a dir poco stupenda!
Tolles Haus. Das Zimmer etwas klein und verwinkelt. Aber sehr, sehr schön. Ordentlicher Pool. Schöner, sehr großer Garten. Highlight, das Frühstück im Garten. Hat uns sehr gut gefallen
Tuttooooo..... Podere bellissimo immerso nel verde curato nei particolari , le ragazze alla reception gentilissime ci hanno dato consigli x visitare i borghi nelle vicinanze. La colazione buonissima con prodotti freschi di qualità. Lo consiglio a tutti ☺️☺️
Tutto perfetto
La camera
Troppe api/mosche in giro
Отличная комната #22! Чисто, достаточно просторно, удобная кровать, очень комфортная ванная комната. В целом - ощущение добротного итальянского деревенского дома. Кондиционер не убивал холодом, но создавал приятную прохладу в номере при наружных "до +36". Приятная возможность побыть в саду - или посидеть за столом или полежать на шезлонгах или на траве. Очень и очень предупредительные, профессиональные и дружелюбные работники, все-все! Можно всегда легко получить посуду и лед для своих нужд.
На удивление холодноватый бассейн, наверное, потому что он имеет глубину около 3 метров с одного края, тесноватая ячейка душа, но это всё не было критичным. И, да, отсутствие своей кухни сказывается на желании позавтракать в отеле, но, это легко компенсируется тем, что можно достаточно быстро дойти пешком до Кастеллины и позавтракать там.
Una finca muy bonita, limpieza excelente y destacaría la amabilidad de su personal, muy atentos
Fue todo muy correcto
Die gesamte Organisation im Hotel. Auch das Areal ist sehr gut gepflegt und sehr sauber. Der Pool ist empfehlenswert. Das Frühstück hat keine Wünsche offen gelassen und war immer gut gefüllt.

This was 10/10 experience! It’s rare when reality is even better than the photos. An amazing location to explore Chianti Classico. The atmosphere and service were perfect, and the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming.
Situato in un‘ottima posizione a pochi passi da Castellina in Chianti l’hotel colle etrusco Salivolpi offre una bella piscina ottima per rinfrescarsi nelle calde estati e un bello spazio aperto nel verde per rilassarsi.
Nádherné místo, s láskou opečovávaná zahrada s mnoha krásnými zákoutími pro odpočinek, bazén dostatečně veliký i pro plavání, vše čisté a vkusné, velmi vstřícný a přátelský personál. Snídaně za příplatek opravdu bohatá a pestrá, navíc v příjemném prostředí zahrady. Parkování bez problémů, centrum pohodlně dosažitelné procházkou.
Pokoj byl trochu stísněný, což ale vynahrazovala možnost bohatého využití venkovních prostor, a klimatizace hlučnější, než by nám bylo milé - ale dostatečně výkonná.
Super miejsce, bardzo dobre śniadania, przemiła obsługa, blisko do sklepu i restauracji.
The hotel is situated in a beautiful old stone house, but perfectly renovated, surrounded by gardens and a wonderful green landscape. The room was spacious, the breakfast served in an outdoor area gave guests the opportunity to enjoy a good coffee while listening to the birds singing. The location is also great, as we could visit the historic city center within a short walking distance. The service was also excellent. Highly recommended hotel for those who want to relax and connect with nature.
It's a suggestion, not a complaint. The bedroom mattress is something that can be improved in the future.
Belle chambre avec salle de bains en parfait état dans une ancienne ferme rénovée en hôtel. Excellent petit déjeuner dans le jardin , Hotel à proximité du centre de Castellina et idéalement situé dans le Chianti pour visiter . Sienne , San Gimignano , Radda , Voltéra , Volpaia , . Lieu parfait si vous avez envie de découvrir cette parti de la Toscane en vélo . Les routes et le décor naturelle sont idéales pour cela .
tout était parfait
Lovely staff, tidy clean rooms, great pool
The hill! Needed a drink by the time we had walked back

Beautiful property in a dreamy spot. The staff was excellent. Not a bad thing to say. I don’t want to leave
Nothing we didn’t like
Gostei de tudo, o hotel é lindo e muito bem decorado, tivemos um imprevisto e a equipe salvou minha passagem pela Toscana.
Muy recomendable. La habitación pequeña pero cómoda. Lo mejor la ubicación, el entorno y el desayuno. Muy buena atención del personal. Parking gratuito
Molto accogliente
The hotel staff were excellent. We had no issues with our stay but we could see how helpful the staff were. Beautiful setting, excellent breakfast & perfect location, with an easy walk to the town centre.
No issues,
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour. Le personnel était très gentil. La chambre était super propre.
Ein wunderbarer Ort um sich zu erholen und doch "zentral" gelegen. Zum nächsten Ort kein Kilometer zur nächsten Pizzeria 200 Meter, nach Florenz und Siena ist es mit dem Auto auch nicht weit. Das Personal ist zuvorkommend, das Frühstück ausreichend, tagsüber gibt es immer Getränke. Der Garten lädt zum Verweilen ein, es ist das Revier von 3 Wiedehopf Voegeln, und wenn es zu heiß wird kann man sich im bis zu 2 Meter tiefen Pool erfrischen. Ein Danke an alle und das nächste Mal bleiben wir länger als 3 Nächte.
Es gibt keine Kritiken.
Muito bom café da manhã, ótimo atendimento da equipe, quarto muito limpo e confortável. Área externa também muito agradável e bem cuidada.
Ter ficado só um dia.
I like everything! The service is wonderful, the staff are extremely professional and friendly. the location beautiful, close to everything! The room was cozy and beautifully decorated.

Beautiful authentic building. Even better than the photos. The location was spot on - walking distance to Castellina di Chianti. Host was happy to help with all questions.
La atención del personal, excelente
Nada oara reprochar
The hotel was located in a beautiful town and the grounds were very relaxing with sun loungers by the pool and in the orchard with drinks available to order. We had a very peaceful stay and the staff were all very helpful and friendly.
Il giardino e la gentilezza dello staff
La colazione è un po’ da migliorare

Confortável, local bonito.
Um pouco distante do centro.
Location close to centre Grounds and pool well presented ( though did not use due to weather that day) Staff very helpful
Very dated room and bathroom
This hotel is so lovely. The accommodations were very comfortable, the property gorgeous and relaxing. The staff were wonderful as was the breakfast. It was a quick car ride to Panzano and Greve and so so many amazing restaurants and wineries to choose from. When I return to this area I won't bother looking elsewhere and I'll be sure to stay even longer.
Fint hotell , trevlig personal ,välstädat ,bra frukost, fin trädgård. Trevligt inrett rum.
Bra att veta att det är 1km uppförsbacke till hotellet från byn utan trottoar om man vill dricka vin och inte kör bil.
O apartamento é muito agradável, bem decorado, cama ótima, café da manhã variado, excelente. Curta distância a pé até o centro de Castellina in Chianti.
Não há pessoas o tempo todo na recepção. Porém, nas interações que tive com o staff, foram prestativos.
Wir wurden sehr nett empfangen, es war unkompliziert. Die Betten sind bequem und alles ist sehr sauber. Inkludiert im Aufenthalt ist ein Wine Tasting im Weinkeller der Familie des Hotels, sehr schöne Erfahrung und lohnt sich definitiv! Die Lage ist sehr ruhig, in einer schönen Umgebung. Castellina ist ein kleiner Ort mit charmanten Restaurants & Gassen.
Ambiente pulito personale molto gentile colazione eccellente posizione ottima

The rooms and garden are very nice, and the service is genuinely friendly and attentive, which makes for a pleasant and welcoming stay. Overall, a comfortable place very close to the tiwn centre.
I think the description should be adjusted slightly to match reality more closely. While the property is an ancient 1400s farmhouse in the hills of Castellina in Chianti, the description said it‘s surrounded by vineyards and with views over the Elsa Valley. The surrounding landscape is partially obscured by hedges and relatively newly built houses, so it does not really feel like open, uninterrupted countryside with expansive views as one might expect from the description, but more like in a recently built neighbourhood.
Ótimo atendimento e localização
Mi è piaciuta l'atmosfera del posto e il gusto con cui è stato gestito. È molto piacevole e accogliente e mi spiace solo di essere rimasta troppo poco. Tornerò e lo consiglierò.

El conjunto en general. La recepcinista, creo se llamaba Lisa, totalmente encantadora.
Molto bello e particolare, prossimamente vorrei rimanere qualche giorno in più
El lugar es muy lindo y muy bien ubicado, la gente que trabaja ahi es muy simpatica y amable
Nada que no nos haya gustado
Comfortable beds and lovely lounge areas welcoming staff Bar facilities Great breakfast room Zecko is a friendly person to greet you at breakfast
What a beautiful place in Castellina. The room was so comfortable as was the bed. The location is within walking distance of the town. The staff was really professional and recommended restaurants in Castellina. The breakfast was very good. I loved this place.
All was great
Fantastically situated. Service was above everything that could be expected. When the wifi broke down in the evening, they called around and a technician came to fix it. Wonderful garden and breakfast with local food, even honey and prosecco! We will definitely return to this outstanding hotel!
Struttura stupenda personale gentilissimo torneremo sicuramente
Hôtel très agréable, chambre très bien, style rustique . Personnel sympathique et attentionné.

Accoglienza , colazione e location
costoso per la tipologia ed il servizio dato, ma probabilmente il costo era legato ad un evento nel periodo stesso .
Tutto perfetto. Staff cordiale e professionale. L’hotel stupendo. Posizione perfetta per visitare la zona del Chianti.
Assolutamente nulla :)
Κατ' αρχήν, το μέρος είναι ακριβώς όπως το είδαμε στις φωτογραφίες. Προερχόμενοι από τουριστικό μέρος οι ίδιοι και έχοντας πολλά τέτοια συγκροτήματα στο μέρος μας, μπορώ να πω ότι είναι τέλεια διατηρημένο, τακτοποιημένο και φροντισμένο. Είναι ένα πανέμορφο μέρος με τον ωραιότερο κήπο. Το προσωπικό απίστευτα φιλικό και καλοσυνάτο. Αγαπήσαμε Ziko και Christina. Πεντακάθαρα, ωραίο πρωινό και θα ξανάρθουμε σίγουρα
Accoglienza, posizione
Stanze e servizi igienici da rimodernare.
Top Unterkunft in mitten des Chianti Gebietes
Nice house, nice garden, excellent beds, magnificent breakfast in the garden and facilities for cyclists!
Frühstück in Garten war ausgezeichnet.
Hauseigener Wein zu Teuer. (14 Euro) 😏 Leider auch sehr viele Deutsche Gäste.
Skvělá poloha mezi vinicemi, čisto, pohodlná postel, příjemný personál. Výborné snídaně.
Nic jsem nenašel.

Large variety, everything I ate was good. Coffee wasn't as hot as it should be. We ate just once because we don't want such a huge breakfast every day. Original quote was 10 euros when booking but 15 after we arrived.
It was perfecr. It is a short walk to the town center and restaurants. We liked being more remote. Beautiful grounds.
This was a fantastic place to stay. The room was very nice, the location was beautiful, and the staff were all very friendly. My wife and I needed to make a dinner reservation one evening but we don’t speak Italian, and the receptionist was kind enough to call into the restaurant to make a reservation for us. Additionally, when we departed for Cinque Terre she provided us with some additional information and tips to help us while we went there.
Der Empfang war sehr freundlich.
Staff gentile e disponibile
Tv minuscola in camera , zero insonorizzazione, si sente tutto
Abbiamo ritenuto che l inginocchiatoio da preghiera fosse un po inquietante.
Very welcoming and homely with a great Tuscan design
Staff were really helpful, polite and accommodating
