The location of this hotel is truly spectacular. The surrounding area is lush and green and quiet. It is the best one could hope for for a Tuscany villa hotel. My friends and I spent quite some time walking around the area and were just simply blown away. I chatted with a couple who live in Italy and have traveled extensively in it. They confirmed that the location for this hotel was great even by the lofty Tuscan standard. The grounds of the hotel itself was also beautiful. There are flowers everywhere. The only minor drawback is that there is a long winding road one must pass through before reaching the hotel. If you are at all prone to car sickness, like one of my friends, it could be a bit of a problem.
For a countryside villa hotel, the conditions of the rooms were very good. Everything was clean and quite well-maintained. I was at first worried that it would be a little rustic and rundown, but it was not the case at all. The staff was friendly, albeit a little inefficient. If it is a Tuscan country villa hotel you are looking for, look no further. You are not going to do much better than this, especially value-for-money wise.
