Volterra

"Wow. I could not have dreamed of a better weekend getaway. This was seriously the most beautiful villa. The view from it was picturesque, it looked fake!

Top Volterra Hotel Reviews

Hotel Athena

8/10 Good

"Overall okay hotel. It’s meant more to come in during the morning while explore and out all day. Rooms are small and you can hear everything that’s going on in the hallway and in othe rooms (e.g., crying baby at 3am). Reception staff (Simone) was helpful and bartender (Lucas) was super nice. View in the terrace is good and peaceful but can’t be use if too close to dinner time."
