Our stay was wonderful. Staff members were pleasant and helpful. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The tour and tasting was a must have experience. The grounds are beautifully designed and maintained. Our only problem was the coffee maker had to be replaced because it didn’t work, and no instant coffee was provided. I did miss my timely first cup prior to getting dressed. Overall, it was a lovely experience.
The property is located in the center of Tuscany with an amazing view of the surrounding area.
The Villa is very clean & comfortable, accommodating three families very well.
Wine tasting is offered everyday, unfortunately the restaurant was closed due to Winter season.
Gorgeous hotel in an amazing location and we really enjoyed the wine tour and on site restaurant. The only negative was that the shower constantly flooded the bathroom which meant it was difficult to use and some of the furniture had marks on the fabric etc which does spoil the overall look of the room.
Super clean.. walked in can smell how clean it was.
Beautiful location only down side restaurant was close and it was very difficult finding food around on a Monday afternoon. Wine tour is a must had a great time small group but wonderful people..
Lovely views and the apartment we stayed in was perfect and spacious. Weather was a bit too hot but the pools really helped control it. Would definitely go back!
Onsite food choices limited, unless you have a car, i wouldn't stay here. Staff very friendly but not highly knowledgeable about the winery, process and history of castle. Taking the wine tour is a waste of time you will learn nothing. Save money just walk the property and taste their wine, BUT, the staff is very nice
The photos and visitors feedbacks wasn’t as the Vila looked compared to the castle. The villa we got is very old compared to the amazing reviews and photos of the Castle. The service we got is very nice although we decided to leave the place. We are looking forward to get any answers from costumer services in order to get fully refund back! It’s important mention the real feedback on the villas and not on the castle.
This was truly a unique experience. Castilla di Meleto sits in the beautiful Tuscan scenery with its winery surrounding it. You'll notice this is not like any other accommodation, they really try to keep the castle the way it was. They are not trying to convert every room into a bedroom to increase profit. The dining room of the castle would be the dining room from some centuries ago with original furniture. If you stay in the castle I definitely recommend taking the castle tour. Though as a guest you're freely to go into most rooms of the castle but if you take the tour you'll be given a peek to other rooms not generally open, like the theatre and dungeon of the castle as well. My only complaint is we came on a very rainy day and there isn't much to do when it rains. I think the hotel can make some accommodation for that in the future. Maybe even properly covered area outdoor would be good.
Ya habia estado volvi porque me encanto pero ahora no es igual el desayuno muy pobre , y la habitacion era chica e incomodo para or al baño con escalones de por medio y no estaba todo disponible para ver como por ejemplo la capilla y la sala de recepciones … y ademas el testing era free y ahora no , lamento de ir todo esto pero es verdad .
Exceptional service and stunning experience. Be sure to enjoy a walk around the area

Mittelmäßig, würden es nicht wieder buchen
Wir hatten eine Villa gebucht. Achtung: für die Villa gilt nicht derselbe Service (housekeeping etc) wie für 'normale' Zimmer, obwohl die Villa wesentlich teurer (und natürlich großzügiger) ist. Kein Restaurant, nur Frühstücksbuffet.
Schimmel im Bad, die Heizung lief an 2 von 4 Abenden gar nicht, an 1 Abend auch ohne Warmwasser, insgesamt sollte man wieder mal was investieren. Als Entschuldigung gab es eine Flasche Wein ...
Absolut positiv: die Damen am Frühstücksbuffet, die atemberaubende Lage, 2 Pools (waren Ende Oktober dort, somit nicht genutzt), eigentlich eine sympathische Ecke ...
Meget dejligt hotel, i de smukkeste omgivelser og med autentiske dejlige store værelser. God service fra personalet, eneste minus er dog morgenmaden, lille og lidt kedeligt udvalg og ikke børnevenligt, derudover var der buffet hvor personalet lagde det på tallerknen du ville have, men det gav en lang kø, som gjorde at man måtte vente længe på at komme til. Her manglede der en mere til at servicere gæsterne.

A unique location in Tuscany
Lovely location, great to live amongst the vineyards. Reception recommended a lovely local restaurant for dinner.
Luogo meraviglioso, ben curato, gentilezza e professionalità dello staff, camere spaziose e pulite, colazione inclusa utilizzando prodotti locali e sempre varia.
Paesaggi circostanti il castello da cartolina e piscine a sfioro che regalavano una vista ancora più unica.

Location bellissima ma le foto non corrispondevano alla realtà per quanto riguarda la camera. Ci hanno sistemati nelle camere della ex canonica, tra macchie di umidità e phon da rivedere. Verificate bene la sistemazione che volete prima di prenotare. Il personale è gentile, cordiale e disponibile. Molto apprezzata la bottiglia di chianti in omaggio in camera.
Great views and very special staying at a Castle but at night it did feel lonely since no staff in the premises and no places to eat close. But great experience.
