The location is stunning!!! Perfect for a fairy tale wedding. So quiet and peaceful. Our bathroom was beautiful.

Finding the reception desk was a bit challenging. There was only one sign at the bottom of the hill, but nothing at the top to say where to go. I walked around the entire building before I found someone who could help me find it. The breakfast was sadly not much. Unfortunately, the restaurant was closed on Tuesday’s (as was most of the town), so that was also a bit disappointing. Both these things aside, it was a lovely experience and we’re glad we went.

Castello di Gargonza is a very special place. The views from our suite were sublime and my morning swim was heavenly! Our room was extremely comfortable - air-conditioned, with an enormous, super-comfortable bed and a huge bathroom. Decor-wise, it all looked newly done. The breakfast was great and we had a delicious lunch - homemade truffle pasta (which would have cost double in England!). The staff are all lovely and everything is extremely good value for money. The journey from Florence airport was easy and the drive up to Gargonza is breathtaking. It is very well positioned for visiting all our favourite places in Tuscany. We are already planning our next visit.

Nothing - we had a great stay.

This was the coolest accommodation I have ever experienced. The castle was so authentic and absolutely stunning but with all the modern comforts of home. The host even gave us a little tour of the tower which was a highlight for my 10yr old son. Food at the restaurant was great.

Long winding road to get there but well worth the effort.

We had a wonderful stay at Castello di Gargonza! The property is charming, the staff exceptionally welcoming, and our great room made the experience even more special. The food at their restaurant was delicious. Highly recommended—we look forward to returning soon!"

This was one of the highlights of our trip to Tuscany. Such a unique property to stay in that takes you back in time. It was so interesting hearing how the village was restored over time by one family. The breakfast and dinners we had were wonderful and authentic. We really enjoyed walking around and exploring the property. It was a perfect location for exploring other areas in the region. We visited a wonderful winery Felsina, and a tour of the beautiful La Foce gardens. I would recommend both.

Breakfast was absolutely delightful, the cozy fireplace added a wonderful touch, and the location was simply fantastic. It's a remarkably tranquil haven, perfect for those seeking respite from the hustle and bustle of a bustling city.

The quality of the restaurant's food could have been better, and the prices are a bit high.

Great setting in rural area, still only a 30 min drive from all facilities of Arezzo and about a 40 min drive from Siena, both on a beautiful driving road. The Gargonza village itself is being beautifully restored in Tuscan style. Staff is friendly, there are muskito screens in the windows, fans (no AC, but soit), there’s an adjacent restaurant on site, another local restaurant 5 minutes down the road and fortunately no tv’s in the rooms: who needs tv. Breakfast is decent with local specialities, delicious culatta ham, brilliant coffee, bread and lots of sweets for who's into that. General considerations: cell phone reception and WiFi are limited in the remote area, although helping offline relaxation and reprioritization. The final 200 meters from village entry to hotel parking are unpaved. So just slow down on to the parking with a lower clearance sports car or park a 1 minute walk away at the village entry/pool/restaurant. Also regarding mobility, note that because it is a medieval village, it’s slightly hilly and paved with cobblestones. All in all: special historical place to stay, nicely renovated, could use better beds.

Only improvement point we found is that the beds could be better for a more solid night’s rest. For optimal future proofing, an electric vehicle / EV charging station would be ideal as charging points in the region are limited (June 2022) and it would fit the nature oriented feel of the hotel.

The location and ambience of the castle. I love the surroundings and how peaceful it is. I also like the people that work at the castle. They are very helpful and supportive in every way.

Nothing really.

Great experience in a lovely historical castle. Our room was wide, well designed and we enjoyed the wide comfort bed and the heat of the classical fireplace. Breakfast was rich and tasty. The staff is very kind and friendly.

No wifi and no cellular service at the room. The wifi worked Only at the public areas of the accommodation.

Lovely old village with beautiful surroundings

The room whilst pleasant was smaller and not as nice as the room in the photograph shown on Booking.com
