A boutique B&B in a fabulous little town.
Wonderful boutique B&B. We came across it by chance looking for a place near to both Saturnia Spa and Lake Bolsena - both of which are must-do destinations in this part of Italy. The small walled town of Farnese is a real delight - narrow cobbled streets, friendly locals, and reasonable prices in the local bars. Our room was very clean and classy, and BXT great too. Highly recommended.

Really cute town, picturesque location. Our room was very nicely decorated but lack of A/C made it really uncomfortable at night. We discovered an overhead fan but that was a bit noisy. Bed was also very squeaky and shifted with every move.

The room booked was a last minute offer at a low price because the only one without air conditioning, even if in our country and in the building of 1600 with walls of a meter wide where is our B & B normally sleeps well even without . However, I regret that our guests did not have a good night as well as others who were already asleep when there were numerous phone calls at 11.00pm to know where to park the car, phone calls that were not made to confirm their arrival time nor their delay, last check-in is at 21:00, and from their arrival after 23:00 with various entries and exits.

Perfect hotel in a boring village!
We found the village totally boring, but it was a great place to stay at in a quick reach to a Marta and lake there during a day and it had a lovely bar plus a superb restaurant (La piazzetta del Sole) for the evening. Hotel - scandinavian twist on the Italian style hotel - great, calm desing, modern and yet cozy. No aircon, but at least our room (Jr.suite) was away from direct sunlight and hence cool and pleasant. A bit loud in the early mornings as community service took away garbage from the square outside. Great breakfast with a best part being homemade pies and cakes - wow, delicious!!!

Nice B&B in a cute old town
We stayed for 1 night in Farnese and stayed at this B&B it was a little bit hard to find we had to park near by (for free and safe). The host was really nice and offered and upgrade in the room. It was very clean and well decorated. The bed was a little hard for my taste but overall it was a good experience. The restaurants Francesca recommended were very nice. I would recommend this to others.

Really pretty perfect little place.
Probably should have made reservations at one of the local restaurants when we booked the room, they looked amazing; but we ended up eating our reserve of cheese and bread and such.

Great out of the way place.
This was a stopover point on our Italian vacation for a single night. The town was quiet and lovely. The hotel was wonderful. Our only negative comment was the bed was a little firm for our personal taste. It is hard to find even though out GPS put us in the pizza right behind the hotel. The proprietor was inviting, helpful, friendly and gracious host. We would stay here again and might even make up a reason to visit just for the hotel, town, and recommended restaurant. I suggest you get detailed directions from the owner prior to arrival.

An exquisite hotel in a real medieval setting
We just loved this place! The Residenza Farnese, in the town of the same name, is a bit off the beaten path but only a couple of hours by car from the Rome airport. The on-line pictures accurately show the understated elegance and tasteful decor of the rooms. What they don't show is how comfortable the beds are, how delicious the breakfast is, and how warmly welcoming the bilingual owner and her assistant are. The Residenza is located in the medieval quarter of Farnese, a small town a little over an hour's drive southwest of Orvieto. Farnese is a real working Italian town in Northern Lazio, not a gentrified, overly cute, cater-to-tourists village you might find elsewhere. You will definitely need a car to enjoy Farnese to the fullest. Within easy driving distance are the hill towns of Pitigliano and Montefiascone, the walled city of Tuscania, the lakeside resorts of Bolsena and Capodimonte and, of course, the beautiful city of Orvieto, with it's astonishing cathedral. Only a little farther by car are the Tuscan seaside resorts of Porto Ercole and Santo Stefano on the island of Monte Argentario, and, in the opposite direction, the Umbrian hill town of Todi. You can park briefly in the Piazza to roll your bags about 75 meters to the hotel, then park for free, 24-7, in one of the large lots only a little farther away. Only 50 meters from the hotel is a great little restaurant -- La Piazzetta del Sole -- where the food is local and delicious.

Very special place
We stayed in a room of this beautiful residence inside the old city of Farenze. The room was very modern and comfortable and it was a pleasure to sit on the balcony and have a nice breakfast. Not much to do or see in this village but we used this location to visit beautiful Pitigliano, 20 minutes away.

Real Italy!!! Italian Jewel you must visit!!
We arrived to Farnese after 4 days in Rome. Per the reviews we thought it was going to be ok but it was a wonderful surprise to find such a wonderful, nice and peaceful place right in the center middle of the country side. Franchesca (the owner) is a great host and the way she run the hotel i must say is way better than a simple bed and breakfast and also by far better than many self called "hotels" we have seen during our trip. Farnese is a beautiful town, close to Pitigliano and not that far from Orvieto, two small towns you must visit if you go to Italy.

Un piccolo gioiello in centro storico
Tranquillità, cortesia in un ambiente caratteristico nel centro storico di un piccolo borgo fatto di strette viuzze e case in pietra e tufo. Località incantevole e pulita. Ottima accoglienza. Ottima sistemazione (camere) per arredamenti, spazio e servizi. Il legno dei soffitti e pavimenti rende l'ambiente caldo e rustico. Ottima (e completa) colazione. I due minuti necessari per raggiungere a piedi il B&B sono ampiamente ripagati dallo spettacolo offerto dalla vista che si gode aprendo le finestre della camera. Esperienza da ripetere sicuramente

Dejligt 1. klasses B&B i Farnese, hyggelig gammel by. Perfekt til et pitstop mellem Toscana og Rom. Glimrende lokal restaurant Piazzetta del Sole, moderne italiensk med super råvarer og gode lokale vine, kun 50m fra B&B. En fantastisk kombination!

Graziosissimo nascosto nei vicoli fioriti a Farnes
Accolti in condizioni certo non allettanti per un proprietario: 1 notte sola accompagnati da due cani. La proprietaria benché un minimo preoccupata è stata disponibilissima e ricca di consigli su dove cenare e raccontare del bellissimo paese di Farnese.
Response from general manager on Aug 28, 2015
Mi dispiace molto constatare delle inesattezze inerenti alla colazione, devo precisare che non solo abbiamo tre diversi cereali nel buffet ma a richiesta sia per bambini che per adulti con intolleranze ne abbiamo anche altri; la frutta è quella di stagione e dei contadini della nostra zona non manca mai e le marmellate di diversi gusti sono quelle prodotte non da me, che quotidianamente sforno pane torte e biscotti, ma da una fattoria biologica di zona, per quanto riguarda gli yogurt quando mi è possibile metto a disposizione anche quelli biologici, mentre per il burro di bufala sinceramente non c'era,anche perchè qui nella Maremma Tosco Laziale abbiamo solo cinghiali!

B&B mitten in der Altstadt
Wir haben in diesem B&B auf der Durchfahrt von Rom in die Toskana übernachtet. Mitten in der Altstadt von Farnese gelegen, ist diese Unterkunft ein echtes Juwel. Parken mussten wir zirka 5 Gehminuten entfernt, der Weg durch die wunderschönen Gassen der Stadt machen die Distanz aber zum Erlebnis. Das Hotel ist modern, sauber und sehr höfflich bedient. Das Internet war schnell, das Zimmer modern eingerichtet und das Badezimmer entspricht höchsten Ansprüchen. Auch das Frühstück, dass wir auf dem Balkon mit Blick in die Altstadt geniessen durften, war ein riesen Hit. Gegessen haben wir gleich um die Ecke und alleine dieses Restaurant ist Grund genug, wieder nach Farnese zurück zukommen.

Fantastiskt B&B!!!
Detta var ett helt fantastiskt, litet B&B i en liten pittoresk bergsby i mellersta Italien! Rummen var jättefina, badrummet superfint och fräscht, vardagsrummet/matrummet var jättemysigt. Frukosten dukas upp som man sedan kan inta på en balkong. Ägarinnan var väldigt trevlig och gav många bra tips på vad man kunde göra i närheten (bil krävs dock). Man känner sig omhändertagen när man är där. Det fanns inte jättemycket man kunde göra i byn, förutom att gå omkring och insupa de fantastiska miljöerna. För den som letar efter ett lugnt ställe att vila upp sig är detta helt perfekt! Bilen kan man parkera gratis på en parkering i närheten. Kolla gärna på en karta exakt var detta B&B ligger, för det är smala gränder, och man ser det inte på håll. Mycket prisvärt! Jag kan varmt rekommendera detta ljuvliga ställe!!!

Bra läge för utflykter i omgivningarna. Litet och personligt. Fint rum med alla bekvämligheter (om än med något hårda sängar för vår smak). Bra frukost. Hjälpsam och trevlig personal. Mycket bra restauranger på gångavstånd. Kan vara lite svårt att hitta till hotellet, det ligger inne i smala gränder och är inte helt tydligt skyltat.

Lovely place
We booked this hotel, in lovely Farnese, without knowing anything about the place. We were not disappointed. First of all the city is small and lovely but second, and most important, the B&B is super lovely. We stayed in an amazing room, comfortable beds, beautiful bathroom. The staff was very helpful and the breakfast was really really good. We only booked one night but we decided to extend our stay because we loved the hotel so much.
