Viaggio nel tempo
Pros:

Una fortezza d'altri tempi che fin dall'inizio stupisce, si lascia la macchina in un parcheggio adiacente alla struttura e percorrendo un viottolo si attraversa un bastione che sembra un portale del tempo per arrivare alla reception. Luogo molto caratteristico e suggestivo con un affaccio sulla vallata e sul paesino da cartolina. Personale molto preparato e disponibile ad assicurare un soggiorno che lasci un bel ricordo. Camere nella fortezza belle e caratteristiche. Colazione variegata con prodotti del territorio alcuni dolci fatti in casa da consigliare. Cena con piatti ricercati e sfiziosi. Sicuramente un'esperienza da rifare
Ps: consiglio visita alla città rupestre di Vitozza e Pitigliano

Cons:

Vacanza troppo breve😃😃😃

Neverjetno 👑
Pros:

Fantastična izkušnja bivanja v zgodovinski trdnjavi je bila nadvse zanimiva in neverjetna, gre za zelo lepo obnovljen hotel in izredno prijazno osebje, ki se vsakemu gostu posebej posveti. V resnici je še lepše, kot na fotografijah. Vsekakor priporočam vsem, ki ji zgodovina vsaj malo zanima.

Un sans faute
Pros:

La vue est sublime, le personnel est vraiment très gentil et professionel, le restaurant est certes de taille modeste mais c'etait vraiment excellent.
La chambre est très confortable.
Le rapport qualité prix est vraiment très bon.
Aucune faute note pour cet hébergement

Cons:

Aucun rapport avec l'hébergement, mais beaucoup de boutique et de musée sont fermées durant la saison hivernal.
Il vaut mieux y aller au printemps ou en automne pour l'animation.

Incredible sunsets and very tasty breakfasts
Pros:

We had a very good stay. The location is excellent, making it easy to get around and very convenient overall. The room itself was beautiful, comfortable, and pleasant to spend time in. One of the highlights was definitely the sunsets, which were absolutely incredible and made the stay feel extra special.

The staff were friendly and welcoming. It was also convenient to stay here with a child. The breakfast was excellent. We also appreciated the convenient parking.

Overall, this is a lovely place to stay, with a great combination of location, comfort, service, and family-friendly convenience.

Cons:

In the night, one spider appeared in the bed, but it was not that bad. :–)

esperienza positiva da ritornarci alla prima occasione
Pros:

ottimo assortimento sia dolce che salato

Cons:

solo un piccolissimo appunto eravamo ancora a tavola con i piattini/tazze/bicchieri e una cameriera è venuta a chiederci se poteva togliere poteva aspettare che ci fossimo alzati da tavola

tolles Ambiente, sehr nettes Personal, mit Verbesserungsoptionen
Pros:

Die alte Burg, das Flair, mitten in einen Bergdorf sein. Der Empfang und das Ambiente waren wirklich sehr schön. Man ist in 5 Minuten über viele Stufen durch die Burg gelaufen in dem kleinen charmanten Dorf. Der Empfang war sehr herzlich, das Bad wirklich modern und es gab sogar im März eine warme Heizung :-) Man läuft vom Parkplatz ca. 2 Minuten allerdings über viele Treppen in sein Zimmer - das muss einem bewusst sein!

Cons:

Das Bett gehört dringend erneuert. die Matratzen waren wirklich durchgelegen und sehr weich. Ausserdem hätten wir uns im Zimmer einen Wasserkocher gewünscht. Das Frühstück fanden wir auf unserer ItalienRundreise eher ungenügend durchschnittlich.
