Romantic hotel, but...

We had booked an apartment (no. 4) in Montegufoni for 2 weeks from the end of July to the beginning of August 2024. The location of the castle is very beautiful and quiet. The charm of the old castle is really charming. The staff were all very friendly. Our apartment was located outside the castle. It was 50 to 100 meters to the castle on foot. Unfortunately, the pictures in the advertisement did not show the poor condition of the apartment. It had not been renovated over the years. The sanitary facilities in particular, but also the rest of the apartment, bear witness to this. To name just a few minor examples: Missing cover of a light switch, calcified and leaking water taps, completely dirty fans in the bathroom, broken tiles etc. The seating in the outdoor area was also anything but inviting. You didn't really want to sit there. Unfortunately, the overall condition of our apartment had to be described as worn and shabby. Directly below our bedroom - the apartment is on the raised first floor - there was also a metal roller garage door, which was opened loudly every morning between 7 and 8 o'clock, so that a peaceful night's sleep was out of the question from this point onwards. The shared facilities in the hotel also left a rather mixed impression: although the pool was very nice and was cleaned regularly, it was clearly too small when the hotel was fully occupied. Or the table tennis table: yes, there was a table, but why doesn't the hotel owner change the net if it's

Such a beautiful location. It was peaceful. Exploring the castle was very interesting and fun. The food is so delicious. Definitely will return to the castle again and I wish we had longer. Our apartment was very cute, we enjoyed cooking and eating together. The only thing I would say is that it’s important to hire a car. This was recommended by the staff and hiring a car was a good decision.

Il fascino del castello inserito in una natura strepitosa, la gentilezza e la professionalità di tutte le persone che ci lavorano e ti fanno sentire accudito e protetto. Possibilità di visitare tanti bei paesi e fare piacevoli passeggiate. Firenze a pochi km. Non so cosa si possa volere di più. Tornerò senz'altro.

The area was great, the views spectacular. We came without a car and unless you are able to cycle or rent a scooter it is difficult to travel around. Can get a taxi but nearest taxis come from far so will cost a bit. We walked to nearest village to get supplies, but did end up eating almost every night at the restaurant, which was fantastic food. You need to supply the trip yourself but lots of help from the staff.

Wow what a romantic place to stay and visit. Our accommodation was 2 mins walk from the stunning palace / castle, with beautiful gardens and a wonderful pool. Worth booking the palace restaurant for dinner, the setting on the terrace is like nothing else and the food and service is top class. I would definitely recommend and will hopefully return.

I stayed with my family at one of the houses. Two bedrooms and two baths. We went in the summer and the AC in the rooms works great. No AC at the living room. All liens and towels provided. Parking is free. You must have a car to stay there. Pool was great to cool off at the end of the day. The only thing to improve are the utensils. They offer the very basic. Things lake a toaster and cutting board are simple improvement opportunities. Internet is OK, not great. We had no issues during our stay.

Very cute place, as described and a unique way to experience Tuscany. We enjoyed the premises, the pool, the view, dinner at the domestic restaurant and vicinity to Firenze. Latest there you will have to face masses of tourists so this castle is a great calm hub to explore the region from. Two nearby villages offer shops, bakery, pharmacy for the basics. To have a car sure is recommendable. We thoroughly enjoyed and recommend this accommodation.

Review for stay from 02 July 2019 to 06 July 2019

Beautiful property. Quiet, quaint, convenient. We didn't eat at the restaurant as we were given recommendations at other establishments as a more authentic, local experience. +/- 40-minute drive to Florence. We drove to a tram station and parked the car and took the tram into the city to avoid parking/traffic in historic Florence. We did have a few issues that are of note: The front desk is only attended until 17:00 (5pm), so when we returned our first evening from a day in Florence to a broken A/C unit, the room was almost unbearable and the on-site maintenance man could do nothing. We slept in the heat and terrible bugs/mosquitos with no recourse but 2 small fans. Not great. And A/C costs extra. You need to "reserve" the one washing machine that is on site. No dryer. The listing wasn't clear about that. They do not have bikes onsite, they have a phone number for a bike company that can rent them to you (with a day's notice). It was clean, comfortable. I'd go back, but I would plan differently if the description was a bit more clear.

Review for stay from 04 July 2011 to 09 July 2011

We stayed at Montegufoni 4 for 5 nights in July and used it as a base to see all of Tuscany. I would say that it was an excellent location close to most of th cities we stayed. We went to Siena, San G., Lucca, Pisa, Florence and Montelpulciano. The location was great to visit all those locales. The people at the castle were friendly and very helpful and the restaurant on site served up great food with a great view. There was even a great restaurant at a small town less than 1.5 km walk from the castle. The rooms were big and comfortable too. The only main complaint that I had is they make too much noise picking up the garbage too early in the morning and the pool was super chlorinated. (great pool but bring gogles for the kids) As you can see all and all a great place, good value for the money and I would recomend this location to anyone.

The Montegufoni red wine is EXCELLENT!!! We even asked if we could get some shipped back to Australia.The staff were more than helpful and we would return there any time at all. Rated 10/10
