Yes, the place is a bit difficult to find - even with GPS AND a map we had to have the innkeeper direct us via phone. She was charming and helpful, even gave us an impromptu tour (including the dungeon!). The room was terrific and the room was large enough for a nice table where we sat with our wine... More

Arrived by rental car using Tomtom - it actually had the castle listed! We had a twin room which was big with a big bathroom. There was reliable WiFi access which was surprising given problems we have had in the main cities. Buffet breakfast to start the day, not to mention the personality which is Gabriella - very friendly and... More

Although difficult to find (even by GPS) this location is just excellent! Amidst the famous Toscany countryside the hotel offers all that you can desire. Great location, fine medieval architecture, home made breakfast, friendly personel and easy connections with other famous landmarks (Siena, San Gimigniano etc). It was a romantic place to be and an overall great experience! More

This is the place to stay if you want to experience a quiet, old-world setting. The castle grounds are nicely manicured, pool is large, winery is on the grounds. Gabriella will greet you and make sure your stay is memorable. Guest rooms are modern, clean and comfortable. The castle itself is small but stately. Several outdoor seating nooks (some covered)...

What a beautiful and historic place to stay. In a castle but with all the modern comforts. Beautifully appointed rooms on a hill just above the walking trails in the hill country area of Tuscany. Close to several near by villages where the food and sights are devine. The staff will be glad to take care of your needs and... More

We stayed here for 4 nights during our honeymoon and had such an amazing time. Gabriela, who runs the place is such a great person, extremely bubbly and so helpful and full of ideas for places to visit and eat. We had the best food our our 2 week trip in this region. We had one of the apartments in... More

Castel Pietraio is one of those properties that will remain in your heart forever. The Baron Mauro Neri del Nero, his family, and staff were so welcoming and kind to us. Gabriella who runs the hotel for the Baron could not have been more accommodating and went out of her way to help one of the members in our party... More

This lovely small hotel is in a masterfully restored ancient castle, in the countryside surrounded by olive groves and vineyards...the epitomy of what an off-the-beaten-track traveller likes to find. The innkeeper, Gabriella, was the most welcoming & friendly host we met in the three weeks we were travelling. The location is glorious for a romantic getaway, and is close to... More

Booked a superior room which was really very gloomy (big but with only a small window overlooking the car park and a window in the roof) so we asked to move and chose to stay in the standard room which was more cosy. Breakfast was average with only limited fresh produce, the walls were paper thin (we could hear the... More
