Casal com 3 filhos de férias na Toscana
Pros:

Funcionários muito atenciosos desde o momento do check in. Fizeram a apresentação de todo o Castelo, nos ofereceram bebida fresca na chegada. A vista é extremamente agradável, pura essência da Toscana. O quarto super limpo, com um cheiro maravilhoso. Restaurante com pratos muito saborosos. Piscina termal bem grande, com diversas dimensões. Atende muito bem para família..

Good for a day trip
Pros:

The views are incredible, even at night in the 24h pool. Food was very tasty. Reception staff was friendly too.

Cons:

The rooms are tired. They are not 5 star. Would recommend they are all updated, new furniture, textures, USB plugs, Chromecast TV. The steam shower and jacuzzi in room also seems tired and needing replacement. The gym needs to be completely renovated too.

An amazing special place. I will forever remember this place as this is where I proposed to my girlfriend.
The staff were super helpful and supportive, granted any request I made and were truly amazing.
The facilities are flawless, from the pools to the saunas and the spa.
It's beauty and views are unmatched, by far the best views I've ever seen. Truly an unbelievable experience!

The staff went above and beyond at every turn, warm, attentive and genuinely helpful. A truly special stay, we’ll be back.

The dinner was a bit too pricy

Beautiful luxury stay
Pros:

Beautiful, well kept resort. The grounds and views are stunning. Would highly recommend the wine tasting. The junior suite was lovely with a large bathroom and terrace.

Cons:

Food was amazing but on the expensive side- similar to drinks. The breakfast selection is quite limited, their hot food was A La Carte and charged per item, even though our rate was B&B. The suite is very spacious and comfortable, although the decor did not quite match the rest of the building such as the bright red headboard and oddly coloured furnishings.

Top locatie en Spa, jammer van het restaurant.
Pros:

Locatie en Spa.

Cons:

Restaurant: eten is overpriced en niet op het niveau voor een 5 sterren hotel. En ook de communicatie tussen keuken en zaal liep fout.
