Amazing and cozy place with charming and welcoming staff. A lot of top notch local cheeses and cold cuts to be washed down with tremendous local wines. A good bar and on the night of our stay they had a pianist entertaining the guest. Comfortable rooms with good air conditioning and calm surroundings gave a good night's sleep.

We loved staying here. We booked the suite in the annex building which was very spacious with a king bed and large bathroom. Check in was quick and friendly. We had dinner at a restaurant which is 4 minutes away walking distance with great Italian cuisine. Breakfast buffet at the hotel had much more variety than we expected for the price and service was friendly again. We would definitely stay here again.

Great location!

We stayed at Le Volpaie to attend an Andrea Bocelli concert (fantastic) and the location was great. It is also perfectly located between Voltarre and San Gimignano for exploring some beautiful cities. The hotel is clean and very nice with very friendly and helpful staff. Great pool! There is an excellent restaurant close by named Villa Felice with the most amazing views - highly recommendable!

Geheimtipp am Dorfrand mit perfekter Ruhe

Sehr schönes Hotel im Grünen, fußläufig zu einer Pizzeria. Obwohl ein schon etwas älteres Gebäude ist es gut instand gehalten. Der Pool ist schön groß und in top Zustand! Frühstück überraschend vielseitig inkl. verschiedene Kuchen, Früchte, Rührei... Das Hotel wurde vor kurzem wohl von jungen Leuten übernommen. Sie behalten den Charme behutsam bei, gepaart mit Top-Service. Das Hotel hat uns ein Upgrade auf ein Zimmer mit Balkon gegeben. Klimasystem funktioniert sehr gut. Ausstattung nicht gerade top modern aber zweckmäßig und stilecht. Großer Parkplatz auf dem Grundstück kostenfrei nutzbar. Besonders: Frühstück auf der Terrasse kein Problem. Auch spät am Abend bekommt man noch ein Glas Wein an der Bar. Verschiedene Toskana-Landrestaurants in wenigen Kilometern durch die Weinberge auch zu Fuß erreichbar.

Accueil peu chaleureux par le propriétaire.(visiblement fatigué)Il aurait dû nous prévenir que le ´Hotel n’ayant pas de restaurant,et dans un village isolé,un samedi soir ,il fallait réserver une table dans un des trois restaurants à proximité. Nous avons dû manger dehors en terrasse,par 16 degrés dans le seul restaurant complet qui nous a acceptés !!! Par ailleurs,mauvaise isolation phonique. Autrement la chambre est correcte et le petit déjeuner est très bien.

belle auberge à 15 km de San Gimignano

Auberge située à une quinzaine de km de San Gimignano, offrant des chambres spacieuses et d'une propreté irréprochable bien qu'un peu démodées. Parking attenant à la propriété et gratuit. Le petit déjeuner est varié, copieux et de qualité. L'accueil des propriétaires est serviable. Une adresse à recommander si vous êtes véhiculés et que vous souhaitez dormir à l'écart de San Gimignano ou faire un stop sur les routes du Chianti. Aux beaux jours une belle piscine fera le bonheur de tous après une journée de balade. à recommander sans hésiter.
