Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers almost perfect rooms with postcard views, but the additional charge for water seems unnecessary given the high accommodation cost. The service was fantastic, although the owner's policy of charging for water seems to extend to other properties. The location is spectacular, capturing the essence of Tuscany perfectly. Dining was very good overall, with a minor room for improvement in some pastries. The facilities were top-notch.
The hotel offers beautiful rooms with stunning postcard views and well-equipped amenities, but the charge of €2 for each bottle of water, equivalent to the breakfast rate, seems a bit excessive considering the high accommodation cost. The service is friendly and helpful, although there was a standard policy about additional charges for amenities. The location is superb, set amidst the picturesque Tuscany landscape with charming medieval cities in the distance. The dining was decent, with fresh juices and fruits, though some improvements could be made with pastries. The facilities are generally good, offering various services for a pleasant stay.
Staying at this hotel was almost perfect in every aspect, except for the extra charges for water which seemed a bit steep considering the overall cost of the stay. The service was amazing overall, but there were slight instances of being a bit irritated, particularly at breakfast and for ordering an additional meal. The location was superb, offering breathtaking views of Tuscany, but there were some areas that could be improved.
