Volterra, Tuscany hotel rooms at the Independent

"Very small room compared with our last visit, but comfortable foe one night stay."

"Beautiful property at an impressively reasonable price. E-Bike rentals on site were perfect to ride to vineyards nearby. The pool was amazing and the staff. The on site restaurant might have been my best meal in Italy! I would stay again in a heartbeat!"

"Front desk staff were professional, kind and multilingual. Very helpful with storing luggage after checkout and help with printing museum tickets. Valet parking is easier than parking yourself at this location. Cost was €35."

"Upscale service staff"

"Our stay at Castelfalfi was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, the property’s breathtaking beauty was immediately evident. The views of the rolling Tuscan hills from the Olivo Restaurant and the spa pools are absolutely unparalleled – it’s a scene straight out of a dream. I had the privilege of proposing to my girlfriend here, and it was truly magical. The setting was perfect, and the staff made it even more special. Benjamin, in particular, went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcomed and cared for throughout our stay. His hospitality made all the difference. I can’t recommend this place enough. We indulged in a wine tasting, which was an incredible experience. The tour of the facilities was informative, and we even had the opportunity to taste some of their finest wines in their beautiful underground cellar. Every glass was a testament to the quality and care they put into their production. Dinner at the property was equally impressive. The Bistecca alla Fiorentina was cooked to perfection—juicy, tender, and full of flavor. It was a highlight of our trip. During our stay, we also had the chance to explore the charming town nearby, where we enjoyed coffee, gelato, and pizza while soaking in the stunning views. The spa experience was a major highlight. The massage was incredibly relaxing, and the spa’s serene atmosphere was the perfect complement to the natural beauty surrounding us. The pool area was pristine, offering a peaceful oasis to unwind "

"Staff was wonderful, very helpful. Beautiful place, view was brethtaking. Food was delicious. "

"Stayed a very enjoyable three nights. Double room w/ garden view. “garden view” yes but also a stunning view of the Tuscan countryside. Breakfast buffet was bountiful and offered many options. Would stay again in a heartbeat!"

"If you pay attention to the hotel’s driving instructions, everything else will be 5 star. All of the staff is very accommodating to your every need. The rooms are European elegance with totally updated amenities. Breakfast buffet is fresh and hot with ample selections. Location is in the heart of beautiful Siena. "

""This place serves the best breakfast in all of Italy—truly unforgettable! The pool is spectacular, never crowded (guest-only access), and perfect for a relaxing dip. The gym is a great addition, well-equipped and convenient. The spa is fantastic, though some amenities like the sauna, showers, and relaxation areas aren’t included unless you’re staying in one of the wellness rooms, which is a bit unusual compared to other luxury spas. Still, the overall experience is top-notch, and I’d highly recommend it for a luxurious getaway!""
