This was a gorgeous hotel and such a relaxing experience from start to finish. The food was superb, the service was excellent, and the overall atmosphere was unforgettable. The room was comfortable and had an antique feel but considering this is an old castle, it completely made sense and added to the charm. What a wonderful stay it was.

This hotel is wonderful with beautiful views from the terrace! The only complaint is the number of stairs you have to take if staying on upper floors (no elevator) - my husband has a bad back so that’s a consideration. Also, wish they would accommodate all the guests in the gourmet restaurant as we couldn’t get a reservation during our 2-day stay! Book ahead of time!

This is truly my favorite place in the world—peaceful, beautiful, and filled with the kindest staff. I’m so glad we found it. I didn’t want to leave and joked with my family that I might just run away and stay forever. The location and scenery are absolutely stunning. We enjoyed fantastic meals during our stay—even though the Michelin-starred restaurant wasn’t open, the other dining options were exceptional.

very special place and great value for money. Parking is easy and the village down the road is also beautiful. This is a perfect location for people who just want to relax and not do too much.
Renting a car is a must for a location like this but worth every penny.

An utterly enchanting escape nestled within the Tuscan hills, Castello di Spaltenna perfectly blends centuries-old charm with modern elegance. The spa and both indoor and outdoor pools are wonderfully indulgent, complemented by serene views across vineyards and olive groves. The Michelin-starred restaurant, Il Pievano, delivers exceptional cuisine under romantic candlelight, while attentive and warm-hearted service adds to every moment.
Each room feels genuinely Tuscan—stone walls, beamed ceilings, cozy fireplaces—all paired with contemporary comforts. Mornings on the breakfast terrace offer breathtaking panoramas that awaken the senses, and the immaculate grounds invite long, relaxing strolls. A magical, unforgettable retreat—we can’t wait to return.

The property is in a beautiful spot of Tuscany. Not much around it, u need to drive 15 min to find restaurants. However the view is scenic, rooms are clean.
Staff needs to smile, specially the restaurant and bar. The food that the hotel is just ok, the staff not friendly, they counted 12 euros for one scoop of ice cream and when we double checked they said it was correct!
For a 5 star hotel they need to work on the food (we didn’t try their Michelin restaurant), their breakfast bar, their bar and staff!

Of all the beautiful places we stayed on our Italy trip, this was, hands down our favorite. From the moment we pulled up, we were met by staff to take our luggage and drive us to the reception area for check in.
We were greeted by a friendly staff members, given a tour of the property and information we might need for our stay.
The property is breathtakingly stunning.
Our room was absolutely beautiful and the perfect blend of luxury and rustic, Tuscan charm. The dinner we had at one of their restaurants was incredible and the staff attentive in the best way possible- while allowing us the time to savor the delicious meal, converse and just take in all the beautiful atmosphere.
We booked time together at their Spa, which we enjoyed, and my husband had a relaxing sports massage.
The breakfast in the morning had the greatest variety, attentive staff and quality choices that we have ever experienced.
We can’t recommend Castelló di Spaltenna enough, truly a magical place, nestled in the heart of the Chianti region.

Moto Grazie, Spaltenna
Castello di Spaltenna may rank as the best overall lodging experience of my life. Perched on a hill in Chianti, you pass a towering line of Italian Cypress on final approach to the one-time monastery. The Front desk snaps to attention. A warm welcome to introduce us to the gorgeous, quiet property and then we climbed stone steps to room nine. From room nine, we enjoyed a birds eye view of the perfectly manicured lawns, sparking pool, grapevines and olive trees. A feeing of gratitude and tranquility overcame us. We took three dinners and a lunch in the trattoria on site. The Breakfast included in our stay was sprawling, diverse, and healthy choices dotted the offerings. “Capoucino the asked each morning”? Yes! Moto Grazie. The spa has decent offerings and our massages exceeded expectations. We walked down the hill to Gaiole for a simple lunch and beer. In under an hour you can be in Sienna and not much further is San Giminano. Our departure this morning was bittersweet. If you stay here, I hope you feel as we did

Hotel located in a gorgeous mountain settings, the views absolutely stunning, the food was ok, fresh and decent choices on the menu. Room was very clean, but moldy smell was still in the room. The service was excellent. Spa i was not impressed at all. Chlorine smell inside the facility, average massage treatment, would not recommend it. Outdoor pool has breath taking views, in the summer time it will be the best place to spend your mornings or evenings to watch Sunrise and Sunsets. Overall I do recommend to visit this place for at least a few days.
