Radda In Chianti hotellia

Plussat: Hospitality amazing, place immaculately cared for

Plussat: Location was magical - overlooking a valley and surrounding hills with vineyards, olive groves and hilltop villages. Guido was a superb and gracious host, recommending places to visit for daytrips and making suggestions for restaurants for lunch and dinner and attending to bookings for us. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast on the Terrace was wonderful as was the complimentary aperitivo hour at night. All in all, a peaceful, idyllic place to stay in Chianti.

Miinukset: We liked everything about the place!

Plussat: Very nice and quiet atmosphere with exclusive views of Volpaia and the Tuscany landscape. I cannot praise the location and the hospitality enough. You can't eat dinner here, but in nearby Volpaia there are several choices. In our case we tried Bar-Ucci, which is run by Paula, and I can assure you that she will take care of you in the best possible way. Volpaia and Bar-Ucci is worth the trip in itself. Its a treat!

Miinukset: The 3-4 km road from nearest village Volpaia can be a challenge. It is a narrow gravel road, and at the time of our visit it was in partly bad condition due to heavy rainfall a week before. You can reach the village by a 15-20 min walk through the forest (tractor road) which is ok in daylight. If you want a taxi for your transport back from, let's say, a dinner in Volpaia, this can be prebooked from chiantitaxi (very service-minded and friendly).

Plussat: It was beautiful and perfect. Lovely little touches and details throughout.

Plussat: The Locanda is an beautifully designed intimate hotel with the best views in Chianti. Guido was an incredible host providing unexpected special touches. This is the place to stay in the Chianti region.

Plussat: The hotel grounds were incredibly beautiful. The views of Volpaia and the valley below were spectacular. Guido, the host, was incredibly hospitable and made sure every detail was attended to. He was the most charming and gracious host! We will be back!

Plussat: We adored Guido and his gorgeous property! Being here was such an escape and he is so hospitable. The rooms were completely charming, full of little welcoming touches, and the view from the pool over the hills is absolutely incomparable. We had some car trouble while we were there and he was so supportive-- he went above and beyond to make sure the mechanic in Radda took care of us.

Plussat: Absolutely perfect in every way.

Plussat: Guido is great and his angles too, location is amazing and the mansion is awesome!

Plussat: Guido welcomed us with his cheery smile that remained throughout our entire stay. The setting of La Locanda is beautiful, overlooking the small nearby town of Volpaia and the rolling hills beyond, waking up to this everyday was simply wonderful. Volpaia is a 15-20 minute walk away on foot, down one side of the valley and up the other. The terrain is fairly uneven in parts, so may be tricky for less able people, although the road can be used, but the journey is slightly longer. Having a car is a must really. The swimming pool is great, bottles of cold mineral water provided, towels and plenty of loungers for the number of guests. This is a beautiful tranquil place so only a handful of guests are here at any one time. One of the highlights is the evening Aperitifs outside on the terrace. Guido serves up Prosecco and wine, with nibbles, and the guests tend to gather here to chat, share stories before ehading out to dinner, a lovely way to start the evening. Each room has a small fridge, and there is also a very well stocked honesty bar, with wines, beers, soft drinks etc, and the tea & coffee station (free to use) is very handy. A wonderful wonderful stay here with my wife, we long to return. Guido is fantastic and has some very interesting stories. It was a pleasure to meet him and stay in his fabulous creation.

Plussat: The atmosphere created by the delightful owners made us feel we were staying in a private home. Being in the depths of the country, it is very peaceful.

Miinukset: La Laconda is situated 3.5k from the nearest road up a rutted track, so it is not well-placed for sight-seeing visits to Florence, Siena, etc. (A hotel with atmosphere and excellent facilities in a nearby small town was also considerably less expensive.)

Plussat: Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at La Locanda. It is located in a pretty area of Tuscany with exceptional views. Guido and Martina are lovely hosts and they made our stay memorable. Our room was charming and very comfortable. Our stay at La Locanda will be memorable.

Plussat: Peace and quiet, excellent hosts.

Miinukset: Leaving...

Plussat: We loved everything about this property!

Miinukset: We could hear conversations from the people in the next room. The walls seemed thin.

Plussat: Honors wine by glass system. Views. Grounds.

Miinukset: Room was small and noisy. Could hear people right outside our door and upstairs. Rest of the place was fantastic.

Plussat: Locanda Le Piazze had everything we were looking for in Tuscany. It is truly a magical place, property perfectly kept, it’s just like the pictures! It is surrounded by olive trees and vineyards. Staff is so friendly, rooms are elegant and the restaurant and food are outstanding. Ambience was so cozy and laid back. My husband and so fell in love with this place, can’t wait to go back!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: This is a perfect location in Tuscany. The views are simply amazing! The staff are also very friendly and help you with anything that you need. Finally, the restaurant has amazing food. Guido does an excellent job. They are just sneaky! The 5 course meal become 8 with the pre-appetizers and post desserts!

Plussat: In a word: perfection. In two words: top notch. This place is AMAZING. I wanted to move in!!! So beautiful. The room was clean, modern and cozy. The bed is VERY comfortable. The bathroom was clean and modern with a rain showerhead. That was just the room. The rest of the hotel? SO COZY! A lobby and bar that I wanted to curl up with a book and a glass of wine. The grounds? GORGEOUS. Olive groves, views of the rolling hills of Tuscany, and a nice-size pool. The restaurant? OUT OF THIS WORLD. Truly. EVERYTHING was made from scratch. The breakfast offered far exceeded any hotel breakfast I have ever had (or any breakfast I have ever had, period). Housemade preserves, housemade yogurt, housemade granola, housemade chocolate (yes), beautiful pastries, and housemade sausage (just some of the highlights). The dinner was outstanding as well. I cannot put into words how much I loved this place. While I was still there I was thinking about the next time I can come back! So relaxing--like a spa, but better. The staff was also very nice and accommodating. This place set the standard for which I will judge all other places.

Plussat: This hotel is fantastic and a wonderful option in the area! I can't say enough good things. The fully stocked honor bar at both the hotel and pool were a nice touch. The food at the restaurant was also great and the breakfast was lovely. The location is great being close to Sienna and other small towns in the Chianti region. The grounds of the property are beautiful and you can fully relax and disconnect!

Miinukset: We were there in the off season and my only very small suggestion would for the hotel to have some more recommendations for things to do in the area and other places to eat.

Plussat: This property is 5 star all the way. Beautiful, comfortable, elegant. Kitchen is fantastic as are the staff. Walking around the vineyards was lovely. So peaceful.

Miinukset: We loved everything!

Plussat: Everything was perfect. All the details were careful thought to make our stay amazing. The staff is super helpful giving us the best advices on what to do and visit. Great breakfast outside enjoying amazing view. Fantastic food for dinner.

Miinukset: Nothing, everything was perfect.

Plussat: Beautiful location with lovely views. Excellent breakfast. Friendly and helpful staff.

Plussat: The views, the pool, the property, the staff, the rooms!

Miinukset: Taxis were difficult to arrange and very expensive. An inexpensive shuttle to/from the local town on some nights would have been good. Being famous for wine it was a shame that one of us always had to miss out to drive. The restaurant was great but some of the portions were small and it was slightly overpriced compared to other similar restaurants. Also, sometimes the restaurant had little to no music so it felt a little awkward as you could hear other diners conversations.

Plussat: Everything from checking in, dinner at the restaurant, amazing service from everyone working at the property, the free bottle of wine upon check in, and an amazing room with breathtaking view. Worth every penny and can't wait to return.

Miinukset: There was nothing to dislike.

Plussat: Beautiful accommodation, wonderful location.

Plussat: what a stunning location and place to stay for anyone wanting to see Tuscany at its finest and most beautiful. Simply breathtaking views from every direction of the hotel. The staff were only too helpful to heed to any of our requests and the food was fantastic. A must stay place in Tuscany and the perfect location for a romantic getaway of peaceful retreat. Cant wait to return and stay for longer next time.

Miinukset: There simply isn't anything to dislike. Wonderful experience.

Plussat: Fantastic hotel and location with extremely helpful staff.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Wery nice place thanx everyting !

Plussat: I like the view and the owner was very sympathic

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Beautiful property, extremely comfortable accommodations, as well as kind and overly helpful owners.

Plussat: this place exceeded our expectations! what a heaven on earth!

Miinukset: everything was perfect

Plussat: The quiet place! Think back 100 years in time.

Plussat: We had an amazing time at this beautiful house. The breakfast was very good and Simonetta and Luca were so helpful and kind. The location is perfect and the lot and environment is beautiful. We will definitely visit Le Cetinelle again.

Plussat: Beautiful location, wonderful host, could not fault it.

Plussat: Beautiful place with great staff who take care of the guests. Nothing to complain about.

Plussat: Viehättävä majoitus viinitilalla. Emäntä Simonettan ystävällisyys ja avuliaisuus matkakohteista, mihin tutustua Toscanassa. Ihana illallinen hänen kotonaan muiden matkailijoiden kanssa. Ruoka todella hyvää ja seuralaiset Amerikasta ja Kanadasta. Meidät huomioitiin, kun vietimme samana päivänä 35-vuotis-hääpäiväämme! Meille satuimme saamaan romanttisen ullakkohuoneen (puna-sävyinen).

Miinukset: Sää olis voinut olla parempi, satoi melkein joka päivä, mutta eihän sille mitään voi!

Plussat: This charming well maintained property has a fantastic scenery around the Chianti hills. Sophisticated details ( Decoration all around and the books selection on our room ) Two beautiful pools. Friendly staff at the reception ( especially Davide ) Great restaurant.

Miinukset: The spa is really small, but it's free for guests to use.

Plussat: The breakfast buffet was delightful! We adored everything about our charming little apartment.

Miinukset: We wish check-out was a little later, but the front desk was understanding.

Plussat: The communication from the staff was incredible. The 6 of us felt welcomed and every time we asked for information we were given even more than we asked for! The apartment was spacious and clean. We especially enjoyed the cooking class and the wine tasting/tour of the cellars!

Miinukset: There was a scorpion in our apartment

Plussat: Among the vineyards is this quiet escape with sweeping views and attentive service

Miinukset: Very minor: minimal tv/movie offerings

Plussat: My wife simply loved the rooms as they were rustic enough to pass for an agriturismo. Beds were comfy and the staff was very helpful. We also enjoyed the breakfast; good thing we did not opt to include it in the package as I can imagine that having the same breakfast fare for several days might just not be as enjoyable.

Miinukset: None.

Plussat: The location and rooms were lovely. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful.

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: Christina was really kind and helpful. The room was clean and nice. The location was great for a tour in the region. The breakfast was full of local goodies. We will definitely visit it again!

Plussat: Great accommodations and great staff. We stayed here before and loved it.

Miinukset: Stairs! There are many stairs

Plussat: Location and views

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great location in the heart of the wonderful scenario of Chianti region. Great place to be based to visit it during the weekend. The staff has been excellent and very welcoming. The place itself gives you a sense of home with its warm areas and gardens. A special thanks goes to Niko, the night consierge, for the nice chat and company when back to the hotel around midnight. Francesco, Valerio, Dalila and Greta

Plussat: Staff were nice, and accommodation is peaceful.

Miinukset: Upon booking this property, one makes use of various filters there are. One of these was offers dinners. However, to our dismay, upon arriving (even though we had contacted the accommodation separately and were assured), we were informed that due to low season dinner could not be served. Similarly, this also held for the advertised activities. If we had known, we would have chosen another accommodation which offers the same views, room type for a much lesser price. If the accommodation does not offer this, then it should be reflected when booking.

Plussat: Good location for town centre and on site parking for our motorcycle

Miinukset: Rooms rather small but adequate

Plussat: Location is perfect for wine lovers and romantic couples.

Miinukset: Wi-fi did not always work in the room.

Plussat: Beautiful location

Miinukset: Little attention payed to us upon arrival...seemed like self service Wine tasting included 3 wines only what was disappointing

Plussat: The staff is amazing: they're kind and very helpful. The rooms are big and breakfast is served with homemade products. We also dined in the evening and the food was really good. The view is totally worth the ride through the mountains. Marco is a very friendly host, thank you!!!

Miinukset: The only bad thing is the Wi-Fi.

Plussat: Fantastic location in the middle of the Chianti region. When you move into Borgo, you feel like a local. It is literraly a small village and the houses are converted into Hotel rooms. Beautiful scenery, friendly staff, tranquality, ...

Miinukset: The local restaurant staff could pay more attention to guests. Sometimes we had the feeling that they are boared and can hardly wait for the end of the shift ...

Plussat: Location, views, quiet

Miinukset: Nothing loved it

Plussat: Loved this property! Super romantic with an amazing room! It was cozy, everything was beautiful, well decorated and we even had a chance to have a free wine tasting experience of the local wine from the owners. The staff recommended a great restaurant nearby and breakfast was great too. Everything looks like it appears in the pictures.

Miinukset: Everything was great, no complaints.

Plussat: Staff was great and we enjoyed the mid evil feel of the village.

Miinukset: The rooms were dark.

Plussat: We had a lovely stay, its such a beautiful location, with the most fantastic restaurant. We did the winery tour and it was great, everyone was great. Rooms are really nice and big.

Miinukset: Only thing we felt was missing was tea / coffee making facilities - we get up ridiculously early so it would've been nice to have been able to make a coffee whilst waiting for the restaurant to open.

Plussat: The room was amazing!

Miinukset: The hot water ran out quickly.

Plussat: Breakfast was good - however, they were purging the septic system and pumping it out in front of the breakfast area during breakfast time - the smell was horrific and ruined any appetite. They should have rescheduled the septic cleaning.

Miinukset: There was mold in the shower in our room, there was no covering on the bathroom window. Purging the septic system during the meal time for breakfast completely ruined breakfast.

Plussat: Loved the charm, character, location, everything! The breakfasts each day in the Osteria were fantastic and the staff were all friendly, helpful and amazing

Miinukset: It wasn’t well advertised that you couldn’t eat in the restaurant certain nights at the booking stage. Last check in time is quite early so had to go back out after to source food.

Plussat: Upon our arrival, we were offered a complementary glass of wine, the receptionist shielded us from the rain with umbrella to the very entrance of the room. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff, made us look forward to the next time at Castello di Fonterutoli. Wonderful restaurant for both dinner and breakfast.

Plussat: Very nice place Breakfast is delicious. The hotel restaurant has really good italian fusion food.

Plussat: Many stays here - always enjoy wonderful food and fabulous staff and owners - very accommodating

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: Beautiful residence located in a peaceful area. There are two pools, a library and a really nice restaurant that serves delicious food. We stayed 5 nights and will definately go back.

Miinukset: - maybe some local jams would be nice for breakfast rather than the commercial brands served in plastics. But other than that the breakfast is really nice !

Plussat: Enthusiastic friendly staff, nice pools

Plussat: Great garden and pool, classic stone buildings , nicely renovated.

Miinukset: We had a junior suite which was spacious but the bathroom was tiny. 1 espresso coffee per person at breakfast? Limited fresh fruit selection for this standard of property.

Plussat: the cappuccino was excellent. the coffee was only fair.

Miinukset: more electrical outlets

Plussat: Quiet, away from towns, but still close and easy to get everywhere quickly. Beautiful view from our balcony.

Miinukset: The percolator coffee at breakfast needs work, it’s much too weak. Fortunately we had an espresso per person included with breakfast.

Plussat: 10% discount in the restaurant

Plussat: Very charming 15th century house. Lovely views from the terrace and the swimming pool. Area has plenty of great food options. Staff was very friendly and helpful, without exception. Breakfast was great too.

Miinukset: Rooms are a bit dark and could be modernised but at this price point it's part of the charm.

Plussat: Central location, excellent room ( decor, size) historic building. Excellent breakfast. Parking. Restaurant and wine shop alsoexcellent

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Everything was great, loved it. We had the pink room and had breakfast outside on the patio with beautiful views.

Miinukset: -

Plussat: More than enough

Miinukset: There was no window to the room (No. 3)

Plussat: Everything! The host, the view and their hospitality. The thing I loved most was the peace and quiet you get once you arrive. It's so peaceful. I would definitely recommend them to anyone visiting the Chianti region

Plussat: Everything was great, we hope the family will forgive us for our mistakes and the house book came back by post nicely, which we had forgotten in the back seat of the car. The hosts were very kind and friendly. We definitely want to come back next year.

Plussat: Great location with nice view. Very nice and helpful owners. Highly recommend,

Plussat: The hotel was in an excellent location, quiet with beautiful views and terrace, fire pit and still an easy walk to town for wonderful choices of shopping, food, marketplace. The hosts /owners were welcoming, helpful and gracious without interfering; would love to go back.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: I had a great one night stay. The owner/chef is friendly, helpful and interesting. I had the most amazing pork chop dinner at the restaurant, maybe the best pork chop I have ever eaten! The hotel is clean, the room large, the bed is comfortable, and the convenience of the restaurant makes this the perfect stay in Chiocchio. It's a quaint little town in Tuscany. I would stay here again and recommend it. Even if you don't stay the night, the restaurant is worth a visit for it's amazing food!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great welcome from Alessio. Dinner was first class . The rooms are simple but clean and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The staff & restaurant are outstanding!

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike!

Plussat: Great place , great staff, great food

Plussat: Great service. Restorant food and service are excellent.

Miinukset: NA

Plussat: Very quiet and well furnished room, with comfy beds. Exceptionally clean. Historical setting. Very helpful staff. Nice restaurant with enthusiastic staff.

Miinukset: There was no bar for drinks on an evening. The hotel would benefit from an outdoor pool, but there is an indoor pool and outdoor jacuzzis.

Plussat: Bed v comfortable

Miinukset: Pool not quite as good as expected and in different building which was bit confusing

Plussat: Henkilökunta oli ystävällinen ja avulias. Aamiainen oli laadukas ja riittävä.

Plussat: Loistava hotelli hienolla sijainnilla. Kylpylä hyvä.

Miinukset: Difficult to get to the spa pool

Plussat: Close to everything in town and only minutes from great wineries.

Plussat: If you want to have a movie-like experience in a centuries-old villa in the heart of Tuscany, look no further. Everything is kept very close to the original - the furniture, the windows, the floor, it's like walking and sleeping in a museum, but the rooms are very clean and comfortable. Definitely opt for the breakfast (we loved it!) and if the weather is nice you can serve it on the terrace - you get the best view. The owner is very friendly and he'll show you around the whole place, it will make you feel like home. Keep in mind that you need a car to reach the property.

Plussat: historical chambers

Plussat: A beautiful historic property

Plussat: Owner, breakfast, quiet, relaxing, spacious grounds, the view was breathtaking!!

Miinukset: Bed was really firm, but the location and owners more than make up for it.

Plussat: villa casalaschi is an amazing place!! we have enjoyed very much the hostility. we had a great view from the room and we only wished there wasn't so much to do in Tuscany so we could stay on the property longer :)

Plussat: The staff was great. Excellent breakfast. Incredible views. A must if you visit Tuscany. On site parking.

Plussat: Good breakfast, amazing location, friendly staff.

Miinukset: No real options for lunch or dinner at hotel.

Plussat: The staff was fantastic! They truly welcomed us like family and genuinely cared about our stay. You really couldn’t ask for more. The hotel itself has a wonderful rustic feel and makes you really feel at home in Tuscany.

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: Absolutely wonderful, classic Tuscan charm. Excellent service and amazing location. This place is perfect for a family or a romantic getaway for 2. The host was warm and friendly and eager to make our stay as memorable as possible. A short walk to the quaint Chianti town of Castellina makes it all the better.

Plussat: The breakfast was exceptional! Everything was delicious! The owner was so kind and precious, he always greeted us with a smile.

Plussat: Everything was Amazing a beautiful place and Very Friendly!!

Plussat: We have stayed there several times and while it is a fantastic venue the staff is what makes the hotel a home run. Always ready to assist!!!!!

Miinukset: Coffee could have been better, though the cappuccinos were Superb!

Plussat: Beautiful old building

Miinukset: No air conditioning. Bat in room.

Plussat: The property was amazing and there was always something unique to see. The staff were polite and very helpful. There were a number of lovely walks that could be taken from the hotel which were enjoyed.

Miinukset: Stronger wifi would have been nice.

Plussat: Beautiful place we were only there one night so didn't try the restaurant. Breakfast was fine.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Beautiful setting. Breakfast was tasty and the pool area is stunning as it overlooks the Tuscany Hills. The interior has quite a bit of charm.

Miinukset: No airconditioning.

Plussat: Beautiful place to stay, we will be back!

Plussat: Everything was fantastic

Miinukset: Maybe dinner more expensive than others restaurants

Plussat: The historical building was very inspiring and being in the middle of chianti area

Miinukset: The wifi doesnt work in rooms and in restaurant. It was disappointing

Plussat: Upea ympäristö ja maisemat

Miinukset: Ravintola vain silloin tällöin auki eikä kävelymatkan päässä hyviä ruokapaikkoja. Ravintolan ruoan laatu ei vastannut odotuksia.

Plussat: We arrived by taking the bus from Florence. Paula from the office was so wonderful. She came down the driveway to pick us up at the street/driveway. Thank you so much for your hospitality. She even had a dinner prepared for us, since the restaurant was not open. Grazie!!!! Our room, Bed & the views from our room of the valley were simply beautiful. The grounds were gorgeous..The breakfast buffet was scrumptious and our meals in the restaurant were Awesome. Grazia for making our stay at Castello Vicchiomaggio a dream come true. The Toscany valley was everything I thought it would be. The castle was lovely.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Beautiful place and bedrooms.

Miinukset: I actually chose this place for its wine tasting, but I found it too much touristic and expensive for what it delivers. It’s really bad to come to Italy and have American coffee for breakfast. I was expecting an Italian true espresso.

Plussat: breakfast was very good. View was amazing. pool was top notch as were grounds

Miinukset: cleaning of the room was subpar windows were like portholes on a ship value was not good - no way this room should have cost almost 200 euros per night

Plussat: Location,,wine, staff

Miinukset: My only recommendation is to shuttle guests without cars to wine tasting on property. Long walk
