Reviews for Castello Di Valenzano

Review 1:I didn't like leaving the Castle.

Review 2:We liked everything and everybody in this place. We stayed for 2 nights and wished we had more time to stay in this peaceful area. No traffic, no noise, no life hassle. Just the beautiful green gardens of the Castle and the Tuscany mountains surrounding it. You can spend one full day just sitting and admiring this Castle and its scenery. It is a once in a life experience. The staff are extremely friendly, very helpful and always smiling. Diner was a special treat, do not miss it.

Review 3:No air-conditioning in the rooms meant we spent a few sticky summer nights trying to sleep, even though the area the castle is located is already a few degrees cooler than florence. We expected the castle to be located a while away from Florence so we rented a car but if you are not prepared to drive for about 1.5 hours (on sometimes small country roads) to get there, you might want to reconsider.

Review 4:The castle itself was beautiful and met all my expectations in terms of aesthetic. The restaurant offered a degustation menu for a reasonable price. The food was pretty good and we were definitely very full afterwards. Amazing view from room.

Review 5:Too far from everywhere... but being a Castle that's where it is!!!

Review 6:The castello was very nice I was there for a wedding party - great place for that

Review 7:The restaurant opens at 8pm which was too later for our 2 and 3yr olds, so we had to go to town for dinner, which was not an issue for us, We actually saw more than we would have by just staying at the Castle

Review 8:The history and typical castle layout. Antique furnishings and the grounds are spectacular in Autumn. The staff were accommodating to our family needs and breakfast was good. The local town was a short drive away with various restaurants

Review 9:We loved everything. Excellent staff, good maintenance and cleaning, professional chef and waiters, fabulous property and beautiful nature. It's not true in the presentation that the staff speaks only Italian. They do speak English also, good enough to communicate. Please correct.

Review 10:What's not to like , but very out of the way

Review 11:Great views, very friendly and helpful staff. A very romantic place.

Review 12:The location, a unique experience and a fine restaurant serving local produce.

Review 13:It's a castle!

Review 14:Alessandro was a great staff. Beautifull castle, beautifull surroundings with gorgeous landscape. Restaurant was delicious.

Review 15:Everything

Review 16:NO LIFT

Review 17:The stairs, no bar other than with meals, no air con or radio/tv

Review 18:The character of the building, staff and food, the views.

Review 19:Both mirrors in the bathroom needed re-silvering, which meant that itwas difficult to apply makeup and see what you were doing. However, thiswas a minor issue.

Review 20:The friendliness of the staff and the ambiance cannot be beaten.Alessandro and Sandro went out of their way to make us feel very welcome. On learning that it was our 30th wedding anniversary we were upgraded to the bridal suite which was a wonderful surprise. The castle has 1000 years of history, and yet it felt like home. As we now live about 15 minutes away from the castle in the Casentino Valley we will definitely be back for a meal from time to time. Thank you to everyone for making our day so special!

Review 21:Walls were a bit thin. Could hear kids next door.

Review 22:Castle grounds were kept up very well and the view was amazing. The food at the restaurant was very good as well.

Review 23:Beautiful stay in a real castle with character rooms. Great views from our room too. Excellent parking in the spacious grounds with lovely gardens to walk round. Good breakfast included and the staff were very friendly. This has to be one of our most memorable stays in Europe.

Review 24:Absolutely gorgeous location, takes your breath away...True Tuscany experience! Castle is magnificent....food in the restaurant was great! Staff was fab too!.... We can't wait to return! And will recommend to All

Review 25:this is an Outstanding accommodation ell worth the stunning drive and the Views are breathtaking!! the drive to Venice from here was remarkable through the mountains!

Review 26:There is nothing not to like here!

Review 27:This was the best experience we had in Italy. The two gentlemen runningthe castle are so wonderful, and I can't say enough about theirservice. I have never been so pampered, not to mention while staying ina castle! In a quiet spot in Tuscany, which I much preferred to anywhereelse we went in Tuscany. The food is stellar, as is the wine, and thebreakfast is out of this world. What made it best for us was all thespecial attention and help from the two gentlemen. We had a personalissue that couldn't be attended to on a Saturday (which was when weleft) and the young man went into the city to take care of it for us thefollowing week! I couldn't be more thankful or happy to have stayedhere, and though I would like to keep it our little secret, I had togive them what little I can in return for the wonderful time they gaveus. Thank you so so much!!

Review 28:The castle was awesome. Our group felt like we had been transferred backin time. Wear your best outfit for dinner. It adds to the ambience!

Review 30:Hauling my bags up the stairs. But it was well worth it.
