The location is truly amazing. The view of the hotel as you drive up to it is quite powerful. However, as you enter the lobby area, it's immediately visible that it's not super well updated. The 2 bedroom suite was in the original medieval tower section, so it was very old style as in Medieval style old with very small windows. I requested for a change to their updated modern wing, but there were none available. In the end, it was acceptable since it was only for a night and it was an interesting experience to be in such a setting even though the bathrooms also felt outdated. I read reviews that the pool temperature is too hot, but it wasn't. The water felt good in the scorching heat. The pool area did feel outdated with lounge chairs with paint chipped off. The whole pool area was a bit odd as they had some staff there who only stood there and never even came around to offer towels or pool side menu for drinks. The restaurant was quite decent and we enjoyed both dinner and breakfast. As the review said, it was overpriced, but the food quality was very good. Would it be a place to return to? Probably not. After staying at the COMO Castello di Velona the night before, this hotel was okay, but just outdated.

We felt the dining/drinks costs were a bit excessive, but not unexpected.

An extraordinary property set amongst stunning country side.

everything feels like they need to make more money. it’s expensive which is fine but then every step you take feels like they want to squeeze a few more bucks out of you- which just makes it overall less hospitable

stunning views and beautiful hotel. excellent restaurant and service in the restaurant

the pools were too hot, would be great to have one of the pools being cool so you can cool down. suites are small (cozy) would be great to have another room with aircon in the property so you can cool down on hot days.

views were incredible. nice decor

Beautiful hotel in a gorgeous setting! The hotel is located in the heart of Tuscany, surrounded by beautiful hills and vineyards. Super quiet room. Comfortable bed and clean sheets.

This is truly a great hotel in a prime location. Everything was first class and outstanding, including their wine.

Room - a junior suite was ok - a little old and tired and bathroom v small. Restaurant was extortionately expensive for the food - very good flavors , but tiny portions - really not good value at all. Gym was available - but no air on / v old equipment and v dirty

Beautiful location, beautiful vista, amazing history. Truly stunning place

Stunning hotel, exceeded my expectations! An historical castle in the heart of Val d’Orcia with spa and thermal pool. The food is amazing, you can enjoy fresh seafood by the pool, I really appreciated it!

A castle full of history and charm. Amazing views excellent cuisine and beverages experiences. Producing an excellent Brunello on of the top ones. Caring staff with a genuine smile and willing to assist. A SPA and Thermal destination where you can relax and rejuvenate.

Everything was first class: the gates opening for our entrance, the staff waiting outside to welcome us, the history of the building, the spectacular view, the perfect location in the wine country, impeccable service, the tranquility created by the spas and pools, etc.

Staff was amazing and my 12 year old son actually said he didn’t want to leave because the staff was so nice. We also absolutely loved the thermal pool, steam rooms, and spa. Suite was huge and had an amazing terrace overlooking the rolling hills of Tuscany. This was our second time visiting Montalcino and would never stay anywhere else!

Having to pay extra to use the pool, something I have never come across considering the cost of the accommodation. The exorbitant amount of 815€ required for a pre authorisation!

Service at pool was quite slow.

Stunning castle! Gorgeous pools. Great views!

Stayed in September 2022

The photos create very high expectatives that are not followed by the rooms, service level (there was only 1 guy doing almost everything during lunch and breakfast at the saloon), cleanness and food. Even though the personnel were very polite and extremely helpfull, they seemed not at the level you would expect for a high-4 or low-5 star hotel.

The pool looks beautiful but is thermal so very hot in summer and no cold water alternative. AC didn’t work very well in the rooms so it was too hot to sleep, even asking for it to be looked at. beds were terrible and old and you could see the caved in mattress where people have slept. everything was overly expensive, even from the area. we unfortunately stayed here two nights.

the view from the restaurant was nice but not worth the price or quality of the food at dinner. breakfast was ok and the staff were friendly.

Stayed in July 2022

the level of service is poor. some staff are not motivated, many are not trained to deliver 5 star service while the pricing seems to be based on that.

the location is great, wines are nice and the food is good.
