Tolles Ambiente, das leider nicht mit der erwarteten Qualität mithalten kann. Für den aufgerufenen Preis sollte mehr dri
Pros:

Lage und Architektur sind wirklich außergewöhnlich – ein historisches Anwesen mit viel Charakter mitten in der toskanischen Hügellandschaft. Der Pool ist schön und gepflegt. Das Personal ist freundlich und zuvorkommend.

Cons:

Das Fitnessstudio ist leider nicht nutzbar – die Geräte sind defekt. Für ein Resort dieser Preisklasse inakzeptabel. Gleiches gilt für die Betten: zwei zusammengeschobene Einzelbetten statt eines Doppelbetts sind bei diesem Preisniveau ein klares Minus.

Das Restaurant ist hochpreisig, liefert qualitativ jedoch nur Mittelmaß. Fertigtortellini in einem Exklusivresort sind schlicht fehl am Platz.

very good but can be better
Pros:

Breakfast was good but less than expected. The Michelin restaurant is kind of overrated. Excellent pool and garden&landscape.

An amazing stay in Tuscany.
Pros:

Castillo Spaltenna is situated on a beautiful spot with amazing views over the Tuscan hills. The hotel and grounds are extremely well kept. The infinity pool is a great place to cool down after a day exploring Tuscany.

Cons:

There was no service at the pool, but we had to walk up to the reastaurant to order.

An amazing stay
Pros:

It was 16 years since my last stay and I regretted I wasted all these years. The Castello di Spaltanna offers an astounding experience.

Cons:

It unfortunately does not accept pets, which is what kept me away

A perfect place to relax and unwind in the heart of Tuscany.
Pros:

The history, design and outdoor area are outstanding

Cons:

Too many stairs to get to room and bar. The outdoor restaurant area could use some music ( background music ) especially in the evening.

Lieu magique
Pros:

Lieu absolument fantastique très calme et agréable avec des équipements excellents, très belle chambre, deux superbes piscines et un spa très agréable et compris dans le prix.

Cons:

Le restaurant est beaucoup trop cher pour ce qui est proposé, de plus les plats sont froids malgré une remarque. Dans ce type d'hébergement cela ne devrait pas se produire
