Les restaurants en terrasse tant du Fontanelle que le Club House ! Très bons repas et vue fantastique
L’accès très difficile pour rentrer dans jacuzzi
Item was stolen and staff did not do anything to recover.

Prachtige locatie! Fantastisch verblijf
Beautiful hotel with the most amazing views. Staff so friendly and helpful. Restaurants were lovely and overlooked the stunning vistas. Winery and on site activities were great including the cooking class. Pool was gorgeous. Couldn't have asked for a more relaxing place to stay.

השירות היה מדהים, אנשי הצוות היו אדיבים, מקצוענים, והכי חשוב - עשו הכל עם חיוך ענק על הפנים. הנוף מהמלון פשוט מדהים, הכל שקט מסביב, החדרים מפנקים, כל המתקנים של המלון ברמה הכי גבוהה. אין ספק שנחזור למלון הזה שוב.

Exceptionally helpful friendly staff, delicious food and wines from the estate.
Location was amazing. Staff wonderful.
The laundry charges I found to be rather excessive.
Lugar muy agradable, excelente ubicación para estancia en la Toscana, cerca de Siena. Piscina exterior e interior climatizada, con área de spa y jacuzzi. Buena restauración. Personal muy atento
Gimnasio algo pequeño
Un’oasi nel verde, ideale per rilassarsi. Il personale è cordialissimo.
We truly enjoyed many aspects of our stay. The property is absolutely beautiful, with stunning Tuscan scenery and well-maintained grounds that create a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. Our room was one of the highlights of the trip. It was beautifully designed, cozy, exceptionally clean, and felt like the perfect Tuscan retreat. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the thoughtful décor made it feel both luxurious and inviting. Unfortunately, one experience left us disappointed and fell short of what we would expect from a five-star hotel. Upon arrival, we were welcomed with a complimentary bottle of wine from the hotel's own winery, which we thought was a wonderful touch. Naturally, we assumed it was meant to be enjoyed during our stay, so we brought it with us to dinner at the hotel's restaurants. To our surprise, we were told there would be a €30 corkage fee to open and serve the very bottle the hotel had just gifted us. We completely understand that restaurants often charge corkage fees for outside wine. However, this wasn't an outside bottle, it was the hotel's own wine from their winery, given to us as a welcome gift only hours earlier. Charging guests to enjoy that complimentary bottle at the hotel's restaurant felt contradictory and took away from what should have been a thoughtful gesture. The issue wasn't the €30 itself; it was the principle and the missed opportunity to provide exceptional hospitality. At a five-star property with its own winery, we would have expected the corkage fee to be waived for the welcome bottle or, at the very least, for the policy to be clearly communicated when the gift was presented. Overall, we had a lovely stay and would still compliment the beautiful accommodations and the charm of the property. We simply hope management considers this policy, as a small gesture of flexibility or clearer communication would make the guest experience feel much more aligned with the level of hospitality expected from a luxury Michelin key hotel.
Amazing hospitality and beautiful every where you look!
Beautifull location and views. Great swimming pool and bar staff. Rooms cleaned every day. But….
Bathrooms need update ASAP. Breakfast: at this price point I expect superb breakfast. Instead You get very good breakfast but basic + menu with extra pay scrambled eggs, poached eggs etc ( with prices ranging from 10-15 eur). If You booked Classic room: there are two standards for Classic room- the ones hotel shows on the pics and those in tiny house next to the restaurant patio- either in the basement or upstairs. So whether You want to or not You are invited for the dinner😄
Let me start by saying that this was a most pleasant stay. Location on top of a hill with amazing views. Geographical location although a few minutes away from Siena is a bit too far south in the Chianti region, suffice to say that Florence is 1 hour 20 minutes drive in winding roads. Having a car is a must and strongly recommended. Excellent underground parking provided. Reception on arrival was excellent with all the amenities toured and explained. The suite we were in was very spacious and perfectly clean. Minibar was completely free for the whole stay. Bulgari toiletries and super nice robes and towels in bathrooms. Turn down service provided. Breakfast was excellent in buffet style with an à la carte option at a charge. Grounds impeccable, very nice swimming pool area with amazing views, shower, toilet and a bar offering drinks and snacks. Well equipped indoor pool with separate Jacuzzi, bathrooms, changing rooms with showers and Turkish Sauna and Finnish Sauna. Excellent attention from all staff throughout especially breakfast and housekeeping. Price was steep but the resort is what it is, Value for money? Could be better for the reasons outlined below. Constructive criticism 1.Pool bar prices for drinks and snacks too expensive although the portions are generous. Asking for €38 for a club sandwich is way too high. 2.We should have been given a welcome aperitif on arrival. It was never offered. 3.Well stocked minibar but since I don’t drink beer I asked that it is exchanged for some sparkling water. This proved to be a big challenge, although it was eventually sorted. Price of sparkling water from the pool bar is €6 by the way. 4. Some of the roads around the resort are not paved with dust flying everywhere in the Tuscan dryness and heat. I simply asked that my car is hosed down with some water from a nearby hose to remove the dust. This was flatly refused or else I would be charged €50. Ridiculous. 5. I requested that I use their mountain bikes, seriously in need of attention by the way, reception immediately told me that the charge is €20 per hour. When I remarked that mountain bikes are free and the charge is only for the motorized version, according to their brochure, the lady said yes, they are free. Why was I not told this right from the start. I consider these minor shortcomings but one gets the impression that there is an effort to grab as much of your money as possible. After paying almost €4000 for a 5 night stay in a suite for 3 adults and 1 child this is the least you expect. Would I come here again, probably yes.
The landscape is breathtaking, the grounds were manicured and our room was comfortable. Hands down the best hotel I have ever stayed in with a wonderful breakfast buffet and they made our cappuccinos for us each morning. The restaurants on the property were great and we loved the opportunity to go to Il Visiblio. We tried a few of the hotel’s activities, notably the wine tour with a tasting and the horseback riding with a lunch. We loved everything. What a wonderful way to start our honeymoon. We will be back, hopefully with friends!
It was truly a stunning location and service was the best anywhere we have been.
Rooms perhaps could do with a little updating , mainly the bathroom.
An absolutely unforgettable stay. We were amazed at every turn of the property—every view felt like a postcard. I found myself constantly reaching for my camera, but no photo could truly capture how beautiful it is in person. The property is the perfect size: intimate enough to feel peaceful and relaxing, yet expansive enough to offer breathtaking views from every angle. There is something genuinely magical about the atmosphere here. It was one of those rare places that exceeded our expectations and left a lasting impression.
L'emplacement est tout simplement fantastique, je crois que je n'ai jamais rien vu d'aussi beau que ce domaine. L'hotel est magnifique, le spa également, le personnel est au petit soins et le repas du soir au restaurant était tout simplement fabuleux. Le petit déjeuner était excellent également.
Nous aurions préféré un lit double, au lieu de deux lits simples, pour un couple, c'est plus agréable.
We stayed in Italy for 10 days and visited 5 different locations and this was clearly the best. We stayed here for 3 nights, and it did not disappoint. We wished we had stayed longer. The facilities, grounds, and guest rooms are large and pristine. Everything is very clean. The food was exceptional including the breakfast and poolside bar which are easily forgotten with the amazing restaurants they have on site. The overall service and hospitality are top tier, and it offers Tuscany views and grounds that are the best in the region. Also, the location is close enough to visit several wineries, (We enjoyed the tour at Castello Di Ama), Siena and San Gimignano for great day trips if you want to venture out and see Tuscany. Do not hesitate. Go ahead and book the Le Fontanelle. You may find some that are less expensive, but this resort offers a perfect combination of Chianti Living, value and A+ service. Worth every dollar/euro. You will create great memories.
Le Fontanelle is a beautifully renovated hotel set on a hill with amazing views stretching for miles and miles. The staff and service they provided was 5 star from start to finish on our two night stay. The pool area is beautiful and very quiet with a great bar. Some of the roads (called Chianti Gravel roads) in the area are pretty uneven and dusty so we arrived with our car covered in dust 🫣 the hotel is not far from Siena which we visited for a couple of hours before checking in. Le Fontanelle would be an amazing location for a wedding. There is an indoor pool and spa, and a private car will take you to the sister property called The Club House just up the road which we did.
Le Fontenelle was the highlight of our 2+ week trip to Italy. We have travelled extensively in Italy and this was our favorite of all our stays. We travelled with another couple who had never been to Italy so it was interesting to us to share our wonderful experience. The restaurants were wonderful, the grounds and pool were perfect and the tour of the vinery was one of the best wine tour we ever have had. Le Fontenlle was the best way to start our trip and we will definitely stay there again
From biking vineyard-to-vineyard to truffle hunting near Siena, we absolutely loved our stay in Tuscany at Hotel Le Fontanelle. The on-site winery tour was incredible and we enjoyed a walk around the nearby sculpture garden. All-in-all, the setting and location made this an exceptionally relaxing part of our trip. If you're looking to slow down, sip wine, and recharge, Le Fontanelle is perfection.
Exceptional and truly beautiful hotel booked for our anniversary. Our junior suite with outside space was very spacious, comfortable and private with incredible sweeping views of the vineyards and gorgeous Tuscan countryside. Perfectly located if you plan on visiting Sienna, Val d’Orcia and the Chianti regions. The staff were incredibly courteous, and knowledgeable of the area and most scenic routes to take. It’s a shame we didn’t take advantage of their amenities and restaurants as our schedule was very full. Highly recommended if you plan on touring Tuscany or simply to unwind.
Absolutely breathtaking! Staff were wonderful!
Would have liked more food options. Especially traveling with children having snacks that aren’t crazy expensive would be nice. But absolutely lovely place
An absolutely joyful place to stay, stunning location, spotless rooms, the staff cannot do enough for you, the restaurants and facilities are first class, it went above and beyond my expectations - A little piece of heaven in Tuscany.
We felt like absolute luxury here! Everyone was extremely kind and attentive to us, and the hotel had an overall picturesque vibe to it. I personally could not get over the views, and the fact that there are only a handful of rooms here made it extremely intimate and charming. Multiple bar and restaurant options keep things fresh, along with the shuttle that takes you to their winery and other sister locations. Special shoutout to the bartender from Venice that introduced us to a “Select Spritz” as well as a special concoction of her own - delicious! Will absolutely definitely only choose to come back to this hotel in the area, thank you for being the highlight of our honeymoon! Grazie di tutto!!
Photos simply do not do Hotel Le Fontanelle justice. You are immediately immersed in the Chianti hills and this place is so much more stunning in person. The views from the main restaurant alone are worth the stay. Absolutely unreal. The rooms are spacious and elegant, the beds are incredibly comfortable, and the Bulgari amenities were such a lovely touch. The outdoor pools are beautiful and the spa area, indoor pool and massages were some of the best I’ve ever experienced. We also had a lovely private terrace and the whole property just feels authentically Tuscan in the best way. The service is what truly sets it apart. Every single staff member went above and beyond and the concierge was exceptional. The kind of person who makes you feel like your trip is their personal mission. The complimentary shuttle to the club house was such a thoughtful touch. Two must-dos: visit Vallepicciola, the winery owned by the property because the wines are outstanding in an equally stunning setting, and take advantage of the bikes to explore the grounds and ride into town. Truly one of the highlights of our trip. If you’re planning a Tuscany trip, Hotel Le Fontanelle needs to be on your list. Already thinking about the next visit!
Beautiful and relaxing! Definitely a highlight of our tour through Italy. Highly recommend Hotel! We would certainly return in the future.
It pains me to write this review as the hotel itself and the staff were absolutely amazing and nothing short of accommodating, as well as the other restaurants on the grounds and sister hotel La Fontanelle. The grounds and amenities are truly amazing. However, it took a serious left turn when we visited their “Michelin” starred resultant Il Visibio on the last night of our stay. We’ve been fortunate enough to eat at many Michelin starred restaurants around the globe and I can honestly say this was the worst meal I’ve had in my entire life. The food was mostly unappetizing and while I can appreciate the story of each dish, they completely missed the mark on having an appetizing experience. Aside from the disappointing food we received, I got food poisoning and spent the night expelling the €600 we spent. This was likely because the food was that of road kill they found on the local streets: raw pigeon, raw shrimp, raw sheep, rotten fish, etc. I don’t mind paying for a Michelin dinner whether I agree with the flavors or not, but when checking out, we expressed what had happened in regards to the food borne illness and we were told “the food isn’t for everyone”… a disappointing response from staff given the otherwise incredible service we had experienced. Our tour of Italy turned into a true local experience as we had a visit to the Emergency Room to recover from this “one of a kind” dinner. And don’t even think about expressing disappointment or they will treat you like an uncultured annoyance who has no business critiquing their meal. Again, truly pains me to write this as the service from staff was phenomenal and detailed during the meal, although the meal perhaps wasn’t our taste and we respect that completely and remained respectful and open during the entirety of the experience. The true disappointment was in the aftermath of the disaster and the response to it.
Das Hotel ist sehr schön gelegen, mitten in der Natur, sehr ruhig. Auto kostenlos in gedeckter Garage untergebracht
Das Restaurant ist okay, aber auch nicht mehr Das Check-in hat sehr lange gedauert (wir erhielten ein aromatisiertes Wasser und sassen gemütlich, soweit ok). Danach wurden wir noch rumgeführt und dann ins Zimmer begleitet. Nach soviel Zeit erwarte ich eigentlich, dass die Koffer dann im Zimmer sind, wenn wir kommen und dass wir dann nicht nochmals warten müssen. Dienstbefliessenheit in 5-Sterne-Hotel ist anders
My partner and I will remember our experience at Hotel Le Fontanelle for the rest of our lives. It was a truly blissful and awe inspiring experience that words just don't seem to bring enough justice to. The location was gorgeous- unlike anything we had ever seen or could've imagined ever seeing. The property itself was straight out of a fairytale with it's vine-covered stone walls and rustic energy, and the staff was exceptionally friendly, professional, and discreet. I could not recommend this experience more, and I truly hope to visit again some time in the future. Thank you, Hotel Le Fontanelle!
We stayed at Hotel Le Fontanelle during a Duvine bike trip. This boutique hotel is stunning from the location, hotel property and grounds, and the room. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!
We stayed at Hotel Fontanelle during a Backroads bike trip to Tuscany. The hotel is beautiful. Rooms are large. View from the outdoor restaurant was beautiful. We enjoyed the pool. Service overall was excellent. We also appreciated the complementary bottle of wine from their sister winery which was excellent.
What a magnificent place, everything was perfect. We had no doubt the Tuscan setting would be stunning but the facilities and wonderful staff made the experience eccezionale. Don't miss a visit to Vallepicciola Winery just nearby. It too was a delight
All excellent thank you
We had a perfect stay at this hotel! 100% recommend.
Bel emplacement, une vue incroyable, les pâtes sont incroyables mais un peu trop guindé pour moi. Les chambres sont OK, sans plus pour un 5 étoiles. Chambre de bain à refaire complètement.
The staff was incredibly attentive and genuinely caring—we never felt like anything was missing during our stay. A special shoutout and heartfelt thank you to Carlo, who went above and beyond to take care of us. We booked a private dinner at their villa, and it turned out to be one of the best nights we’ve ever had. Carlo anticipated every need and made sure the evening was seamless. When my girlfriend realized she had forgotten her cardigan in the room, he immediately brought her a scarf so she could stay warm and comfortable. This level of thoughtfulness and attention to detail truly reflects the outstanding quality of service here. We are deeply grateful—thank you for making our experience unforgettable!
Everything about this stay was amazing! The staff were so welcoming, facilities were great and food was delicious.

Nous avons passé un séjour inoubliable à l’Hôtel Le Fontanelle. Le personnel, toujours attentif et attentionné, a rendu notre expérience encore plus agréable. L’endroit est véritablement magique, entouré d’un cadre exceptionnel qui invite à la détente. Les prestations sont haut de gamme et parfaitement à la hauteur des attentes d’un établissement de ce niveau. Mention spéciale aux restaurants : la cuisine y est raffinée, soignée et d’une grande qualité. Un lieu que nous recommandons sans hésitation.
Beautiful, charming boutique hotel with its own vineyards. We stayed four nights (family of 5) in two rooms and had a wonderful time. The food was excellent, especially the breakfast, which we enjoyed eating outside on the terrasse each morning. We had an opportunity to use both the indoor and outdoor pools. the views from the outdoor pool are spectacular. The outdoor pool is quite shallow but the water was nicely refreshing. The indoor pool is much deeper and good for exercising in. The Hotel is small and quiet although children were always made to feel very welcome as the sister site at The Clubhouse is an adults only hotel (though we had no issues dining there in the evening with kids). The benefit of a small hotel is you get to know the staff and our experience with the entire team was very positive. While many of the staff are serving at dinner and again at breakfast, they were always very friendly and responsive despite the long hours many of them work. Our rooms were on the top floor in the main building and are in a traditional style. The four poster bed had a comfortable matress. We like a very dark room at night and this was easy to achieve given the wooden style shutters. The wall mounted A/C did struggle a little in the high heat but it was never too hot in the evenings even if we didn't quite get to the ideal sleeping temperature. The bathrooms are very clean but probably the most disappointing aspect of what is otherwise a 5 star experience. They are a little dated and the shower head does not produce a wide rainshower which is becoming the standard. The free toiletries were ok, nothing special. The location is very much in the coutryside but Siena is only about 25 minutes away by car. If you are staying 3-5 nights then the 3 restaurants on site will be more than enough to satisfy you so you don't really need to be concerned about any other dining options close by. We also signed up for a wine tasting and tour at the Vallepicciola Winery which is under the same ownership as the hotel. It was a very pleasant 3 hours away from the kids. Overall, we had a wonderful experience at Le Fontanelle, it has all the hallmarks of a well run hotel with positive and energetic staff and great service. I would not hesitate to recommend it.
Amazing property! Everything was wonderful. Room was large and beautifully decorated. The restaurant is very romantic setting with beautiful views. Breakfast and dinners were wonderful! Loved the wine tour and tasting!
Cadre incroyable
La piscine trop froide et la salle de sport trop petite
Perfect
I could not recommend this hotel enough! It was so luxurious, absolutely breathtaking, the staff were incredible, the amenities were wonderful (definitely get a massage if you stay here!), the pool was a major highlight, and it was in the most beautiful part of the countryside! The location could not have been better. I was beyond devastated to have left. If you are looking for a romantic, beautiful, and luxurious hotel to stay at for any occasion (I went for my honeymoon), you MUST stay here at Hotel Le Fontanelle.
The Vacation was amazing. The place the staff the food the service all was amazing.
We just left Hotel Le Fontanelle and are now at another Hotel in Tuscany region as we are going to 2 hotels in Tuscany and then 2 hotels on the Amalfi coast. We were very impressed by the profressionalism of the entire staff but wanted to make sure we gave special recognition to Michela who always went the extra mile for us and other guests. He was very personable even though his English wasn’t perfect. He communicated perfectly. We also wanted to recognize Jonathan, Alberto, the front staff and the restaurant manager whose name I don’t know but he was always dressed professional and had glasses. The view was to die for. We would definitely return. The food was outstanding and you won’t be disappointed. If you are looking for tranquility, relaxation and pampering, this is the place to go.
The grounds and accommodations are incredible. It is like something from a movie, and I did not want to leave. Lounging by the pool, a picnic coordinated by the hotel, wandering through the beautiful gardens, and dining at the hotel were true beautiful pleasures. The staff is friendly and helpful - such a delight!
This was our second time visiting Hotel Le Fontanelle and it was just as wonderful as our first. (Maybe even better, because now that the Clubhouse property has opened, there’s even more to do on the peppery). The location is perfect—close enough to the major towns we wanted to visit but still tucked away in the hills—and the grounds are beautifully maintained. But a huge part of why we came back here was the staff, who are always so warm and lovely and kind. Highly recommend.
One of our all time favorite hotels!

Truly Amazing! The entire property is stunning. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. The staff was very helpful, even when we unexpectedly arrived early for our check-in, and the food was fantastic. We took a cooking class that they offered, also a Must. Chef Sergio was fantastic. We simply did not want to leave!
Absolutely the most beautiful experience we have ever had. From the second you arrive you feel like your stress has disappeared. The views of Tuscany are stunning. The chef has out done himself with cuisines that will want you waiting for your next course. The staff is top notch and leaves you wanting for nothing. Luxurious. Excellence. Classic.
Outstanding location, great food and wine, friendly and helpful staff, wonderful location! Looking forward to the opportunity to visit again. Would recommend this hotel highly to anyone seeking fun and relaxing experience in the Tuscan countryside.
El hotel más bonito que he visitado , todos los detalles excelente atención y la Zona donde está es de lo más bonito que vi En la Toscana. Vale muchísimo la pena.
Wow - the Hotel Le Fontanelle is an incredible place to stay in the Chianti region of Tuscany. The views are stunning and the hospitality is outstanding. It has an old world feel, but with modern amenities. The onsite restaurants are very good. Il Visibilio was an incredible experience. The breakfast, both the views and the food - were incredible. Also - the onsite winery, Vallepicciola, was really good. We had an awesome tour and tasting, and shipped back home wine. There is a lot to do on property, which is good especially if you don't have a rental car. I give Hotel Le Fontanelle my highest recommendation.
Location is amazing, great place for walking/biking/travel by car. Great room, great wine and restaurant Highly recommended. Will stay again no questions.

This is hands down the best hotel in the region! My wife and I stayed here for six nights after a brief stay in Florence (just 1.5 hours away) and wished we could have stayed even longer. The property is gated, and since we arrived at night, the gate was closed, but we easily entered by pressing a button to let them know we’d arrived. Though the kitchen was closed, they graciously offered us food at the bar, including a delicious Florentine sandwich and salad along with nightcaps. The hotel offers valet service and keeps cars securely in a garage. Our room was located on the far side of the property, so they provided quick golf cart service to get us there. However, my wife and I loved the beautiful views, so most days we chose to walk to breakfast. Breakfast was included each morning, and we could enjoy it in the dining area or have it delivered to our room, which we did a couple of times. We had access to amenities at the hotel’s sister property, the Club Room, where the spa is located. They offer a convenient shuttle anytime, day or night, for trips to this other property, which also has a restaurant, giving us even more dining options. During our stay, we explored nearby towns like Siena (30 minutes away), San Gimignano (an hour away), and Pienza (also about an hour), for which we had our own car. For those without a vehicle, the hotel provides car service to Siena for a fee. The front desk gave us wonderful restaurant recommendations for each town, as well as suggestions for our next destination in Pisa. On days we stayed at the hotel, we enjoyed a wine tour at their local winery, complete with cheese and wine tastings. They even arranged to ship wine back to the U.S. for us! We also spent a relaxing day by the pool, where food and drink service was readily available. Overall, it was an outstanding experience. We’ve decided that whenever we return to Tuscany, this will be the only hotel we’ll consider!
Very peaceful place and very nice staff. I loved
Everything was great!
A truly luxurious resort. Make sure you take advantage of all it has to offer. Highly recommend using the driving range, doing the olive oil tasting, and dining at all three restaurants on the grounds. Also definitely schedule a picnic, it was incredibly romantic. Views are absolutely breathtaking, we had an incredible stay.
Beautiful property, excellent service, excellent dining and spa! Loved the staff, especially BangBang, Thomaso, but all were excellent!
It would be very helpfull if the hotel would provide clearer information/directions to the property with a description and guidance of the best route to avoid the very bumpy, rutted road route especially during rain .
If you are seeking a quintessential Tuscan hotel with all the charm of a 13th century villa and modern resort amenities, look no further. This property is located about 20 minutes from Siena and other nearby medieval villages, wineries, and other points of interest so it is close enough to explore the region but located in the peaceful countryside away from the crowds. The on-site restaurants are incredible especially their Michelin Star Il Visibilio. The service was top-notch.
BEAUTIFUL countryside with Italian cypress, wild rosemary, lush gardens and acres and acres of vineyards awaits you at Hotel Le Fontanelle. A picturesque landscape with lovely buildings inside and out. It's unclear if it was an old farm or nunnery that was converted into these pretty stone buildings through out the property. Each with lush greenery despite the dry land around. You are greeted upon arrival with a smile and overview of the hotel, room, restaurants and activities before escorted to your room. Everyone spoke perfect English. Pool was very inviting overlooking the valley where you can order lunch as well. Rooms well appointed with lovely decor - one had outside space. Spa services were fantastic, small gym and an inside pool as well. Dining was very good, but the hotel has another option for adults to stay a short drive up the road and Il Visibilio restaurant which was truly the best fine dining we have ever experienced and we are foodies! It was beyond exceptional. Overall Le Fontanelle was a very special place where you will make amazing memories.
Best hotel in Chianti Region! Romantic, beautiful landscape, amazing rooms! Great indoor pool!
Our stay at Hotel Le Fontanelle was the highlight of our two week trip to Italy! The views are breathtaking and we enjoyed strolling around the grounds. All of the staff were so friendly and accommodating. We had wonderful meals at the hotel restaurant and the restaurants at the Club House. The shuttle service between the hotel, the club house, and the winery was very convenient. I’d recommend this hotel to anyone- we’ll be dreaming about our stay here for a while!
Amazingly beautiful property and setting!The attention to detail and service was amazing.
Nothing
In a beautiful setting. Really traditional and natural but modern and incredibly comfortable. Sheer class and elegance
That I couldn’t live here forever
Varied breakfast. Fresh breads and cakes were delicious. Attentive staff.
Beautiful staff and very accomodating for our family and especially our kids. Indoor pool and sauna were amazing. The other Hotel the Club house were also amazing. The winery Vallepicciola which is close (hotel will drive you) is the best winery visit I have encountered in Italy.
Service was extrodinary!
We were charged $80 Euro for E-bikes that we never had. We booked 1 day on a Vespa and paid the Vespa operator directly. We were charged incorrectly.
We stayed here for 3 nights during a Backroads cycling trip in Tuscany. Our room (21) was in an outbuilding steps from the pool. We did not have a view of the pool or of the magnificent wine country. In fact, we had no view at all. The accommodations were very rustic and dated - this is not a luxury hotel. The views from the common areas of the hotel are spectacular and the decor in the common areas appears to have been updated; but our room was desperate for a refresh, a new mattress, and a deep cleaning. We ate 3 breakfasts at the hotel which were all ok, albeit nothing special. We ate 1 dinner at the hotel which was ok, at best. We did enjoy 1 lovely dinner at their winery on the property (accessible by a quick 5 minute drive). The winery tour, the wine tasting and the dinner were all fantastic. I would not return to this hotel on a future trip to Tuscany.
Luxury, superb rooms, pool, surrounding, magnific breakfast, dinner. A lot of facilities and diversity of extra activities. Recommended for familiei, couples, friends. The staff was very helpful and real profesioniști. Parking underground.
Everything was high notch!
Beautiful stay in Chianti!
Obscure but incredible exclusive experience
Super attentive staff and stunning location.
A wonderful resort, fantastic location, friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended.
The most gorgeous hotel! The service was perfect and the food was amazing. I hope to return again one day!
Secluded high class hotel. Spotless service.
One of the most amazing locations we’ve ever stayed in, the views were so incredible and the wine safari at the vineyard was perfect. The hotel itself was also beautifully done and the staff were all super friendly and helpful.
Amazing place with stunning views! Great food and very nice staff.
