I was supposed to stay here for seven days eight nights and from the first look of it the room that they gave me did not even have a window air conditioner was broken place was super dirty so I went to the staff to try to get to see if they can refund me the money they will not even do that. I called Expedia Expedia trying to dispute, the cost honestly, I would not recommend anyone to stay at this place. It’s too far from the sites. It was awful.

Amazing stay
It was an amazing stay! The hotel was beautiful and the breakfast was delicious. The only thing is that we went in November so we couldn’t use the pool. But besides that, it was such a nice experience

This is a “tired” hotel with an unfriendly staff, good food in the restaurant and in a good location if traveling by car. Proper maintenance is lacking such as missing or broken parts on doors and windows. And we had a hard time open the closet door. This is a very pet friendly hotel and I almost tripped over a dog laying on the floor at breakfast. We got to see a nice dog fight in the lobby and listen to a happy poodle barking at people as they walked by during lunch. We reserved the hotel through Expedia, along with 12 other hotels, during our travel in Italy. This is the only hotel that never returned any of my messages through Expedia. When we arrived, desk person was very nice. They had a wedding going on so I had to park in a field behind the hotel. Other front desk people were not very helpful. The wait staff had “snooty” attitude. We would not stay here again.

When our travel plans changed, we were very lucky to get two room at this hotel. A one night stay made us wish we had booked a whole week here. The hotel is easy reached, being only a short distance off a main highway. The rooms were large and comfortable. The staff was very helpful in checking in/out and arranging dinner for us when we arrived late. All in all, a great stay and close to our travel goals in Tuscany.

Unfortunately we found the staff were not very hospitable. Also, when we arrived, many of the lights of the beautiful shared spaces were not turned on. We came in low season, and it felt like they were just trying to save money and not focus on the experience of the guests. Spa use was 40 euros each, which we didn’t end up doing because we didn’t consider it worth that price, which was disappointing, as we had hoped for a relaxing escape, but in the end, felt like there wasn’t so much to do in the hotel. The interior was gorgeous, but we didn’t feel very taken care of by the staff. The walls were very thin and we could hear the guests next door very loudly, even the sound of their going to the toilet.

Perfect for relaxation or active holidays
Beautiful hotel with views of Monteriggioni. It seems like it's more suited to those with cars but there are bus stops for the 130 bus outside the hotel which connects it to Siena and San Gimignano. Lots of activities on offer (we hired bicycles and cycled some of the via francigena). Overall, very good for a relaxing break or for those who want to use the hotel as a base to explore the surrounding countryside and nearby castle towns of Monteriggioni, San Gimignano and Volterra.

Generally, the hotel room was nice, clean and updated. The bathroom shower needed a little attention. The staff were pleasant and helpful. Nice location, and great if you also have dogs as there is lots of green space. I would stay again!

Sweet gem of a hotel in Tuscany
The hotel was very pretty and in a quiet area right outside of the city center with a gorgeous view of the castle on the hill. We enjoyed our stay and wish we had more than just the one night. Breakfast in the morning was very good, with a lot of options. The pool area is very nice, though our only complaint is that they tried to charge us 5Euro for a pool towel. We passed and just used our room towels.

Hidden Gem in Tuscany
Great hotel of choice in the Monteriggioni area. They have a beautiful property with a restraunt on the premises. It appeared as we pulled into the property that there was not a hotel, only restraunt, but don't let that deter you from checking it out. It is a beautiful property with a stunning view of the castle up on the hill. We took recommendation from front desk and visited the restraunt they have in town of Monteriggioni ,Ristorante da Remo, as the hotel's restraunt was closed for lunch the day we visited. If this is any indication of the hotel's restraunt cuisine and service, you will not be disappointed. Room was beautifully appointed, as is the whole hotel. Antique furnishings, and paintings adorn the premises. Our room was a superior room which afforded us a great view of the pool. They had it lit up at night very nice, and even had water fountains spanning the pool for a short period during the dinner hour.

What a pleasant oasis.
What a pleasant place to stay. The rooms are big and airy, with pool side access, and chairs and table at the french windows to sit at, or under the many umbrellas and sunbeds, at the side of the pool. Plenty free car parking space, and pleasant grounds. The restaurant was also to be recommended.

OKish hotel near Siena
We stayed at the hotel in early March for the Strade Bianche in Siena. It was absolutely fine for our purposes and we had a nice stay. However, there were a couple of small issues:- - the wi-fi was out of action for the whole 3 days of our stay (first world problem) - the check-in experience/front desk wasn't that great either but it's fair to say that we don't speak Italian so that probably doesn't help

Tuscany base in the country side
Stayed 5 nights and did day trips to locations around the area. Lovely resort with excellent atmosphere for a quite get away. You need transport to get around and nearest eateries are a km or two away (some have odd opening hours and days). Lots of winery's and country drives. The restaurant and breakfasts were very good, and hotel has a sister restaurant at nearby castle.

Oh that magic feeling... Nowhere to go.
This is a quaint hotel, with truly lovely staff. If you were looking for somewhere to stay to get you in the mood for an italian wedding, this is place will definitely do this. However, the region as a whole was lacking any kid of activity. Not even a place to take a stroll. You may wonder what this has to do with the hotel. Well, with plenty of ground that just seems to be left fallow, they could definitely do more to facilitate this for guests staying more than a couple of nights. If you are only staying for a couple of nights passing through, then this resort is fine.

Very nice hotel
We picked a night to stay during a wedding that had fireworks at midnight. We were exhausted and our children just wanted to sleep. The upstairs loft was warm and the fan that was brought in to help cool it down did work in any plugs up there. We missed breakfast due to sleeping in but the hotel made us breakfast anyway at no charge. The location is near a castle which was fun to eat at and if the wedding wasn't such a chaotic event I would have rated this higher. The beds were great but no tub in the bath.

We were only here one night. The location was as expected. The walls were paper thin, we could hear conversations clearly and a loud snorer all night, and this was supposed to be an upgraded room. Would not recommend this hotel if you need a good night's sleep.
