I think it needs updating somewhat and small details are being missed such as someone attending the pool more and offering lunch/snacks. There is no air con in the rooms (the air con didn’t work) and the rooms are very basic and dated. We loved the history! The lady gave us a really good insight into this. I would end by saying - this is more of a 3 star hotel

Fernando was exceptional. What a lovely gentleman who really cares about his work and visitors. He really made the trip for us. The views are exceptional especially from the indoor dining room and pool

The gardens look like they could do with a bit more TLC!

A revisit 32 years on! Much as we remembered, but no restaurant any more 😕. The pool is fab, it’s quiet and a cool place to spend a few days.

I believe that there is room for improvement in terms of cleanliness especially in the common areas. We had a very picturesque terrace in from of our room and the tables and chairs were never cleaned properly for us to be able to sit. Also, although the staff was extremely helpful, it seems that the property is understaffed because the tables in the common areas would remain with glasses and wine bottles for more than a day. Finally, the breakfast had the basics (also some local delicacies and amazing fresh fruit) but it lacked variety. We would be served the same delicious tart for three consecutive days without change.

The location of the villa is magnificent. It overlooks the beautiful hills of Tuscany and the gardens or the hotel per se are very well taken care of. The villa itself has a very unique rustic style with beautiful old furniture and ambiance overall. The couple that runs the place was always with a smile, very helpful and with nice suggestions on what to do! Also, when I had an issue with my mattress, they were amazingly quick to tackle and solve the issue, which is very much appreciated!

A Tuscan villa, it has seen better days, but still comfortable with its own spirit and charm. The surroundings are magical and available for dozens of trips. The driveway is very dusty.

Great and peaceful location near Castellina in Chianti. Place where you really can relax and enjoy in the nature during the day and convenient for exploring nearby villages and vineyards in Toscana in the afternoons. It was clean and breakfast was great!

The outer party where we stayed as it lost the wow factor of our stay

Very disappointed we weren’t in the main house as that was why we booked the villa I’m sure they could have arranged it as we did mention it

I like the tranquility and the views of this place,the kind staff and the upstairs rooms with very high celings.

They don’t serve any food after breakfast and the town was a long trek down a dusty road and not a lot of choice of restaurants.

Location had beautiful views and ambience The decor was lovely and in keeping with the age of the building

No choice of eggs in the morning. Just cold soft boiled eggs..other eggs like fried or scrambled cost 5 euros extra..

Amazing place, lovely pool and very welcoming & relaxing.

Low water flow in the shower. But this doesn't matter compared to the charm offered by the place.

Very nice place: well located, quiet, a lot of charm. The owner and the personnel are very friendly and give good advices.

quiet place in chianty countryside in old villa large, clean swimming pool with view

Stayed in September 2022

As an early morning person I could not get any coffee before 8:00 AM. Signs of slight neglect are apparent in some parts of the villa. Water pressure in the bath is a bit low.

Rooms in the upper part are amazing, extremely spacious with beautiful old decor and a breath taking view of the forests and the vineyards. The lower rooms where our daughters slept are less impressive but open up directly to the swimming pool overseeing the same view.

Gorgeous Villa, breakfast was great and all the staff and Costanza were the most helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend this gorgeous hotel!

Everything was very old. The breakfast was very poor. Heating was not working. The toilet flush was not working although we informed the reception it was not fixed.

Stayed in May 2025

The room was noisy all night because of the old heating and the roof. We had horrible nights and couldn’t sleep at all. There was no windows but the door couldn’t be locked properly, anyone could break in. Breakfast was horrible. Eggs had poop on them and same eggs were served next days. The cake was from a supermarket and left on some random table in the lobby all the time and served next day. Cheap juice, cheap salami, cheap ham. We just had coffee one day, and next day skipped breakfast… all the good pictures they have are super old so there is no such good breakfast or good things left. At night it was super creepy because of unknown noises from outside and the roof. We mentioned that the room can't be locked safely and it was super noisy and the staff didn't do anything.

Extremely hard bed. The owner didn’t respond with any solution. She’s a mean person.

For us it was perfect

The atmosphere of perfect relaxation in an elegant Tuscan villa. The place is for the ones looking for authentic moments of italian summer, tranquility and respect for traditional values. The olive-trees orchiard and vineyrds, seen from the the windows of the library or living room - fully opened to the public- are unique. There is also a small chappel in the villa.. In addition, the services were great, we appeciated the fresh fruits at the breakfast and the overall cleanless.
