Villa Sassolini

We loved our stay. Our room was stunning, huge and comfortable. Breakfast is simple but plentiful. Service is friendly. The spa is small but a nice addition. Only complaint is it was hard to find the first time. We would definitely stay again when we’re back in Tuscany.

Four nights of Tuscan calm. We stayed in room 10 and from check-in to departure we were looked after really well. Super room with a comfortable bed. Bathroom has a powerful shower and a big bath. Views out over the hills with lovely sun rises. Nice breakfast and a friendly team. A big shout out to Andrea and Laura for making our stay special. It is quite remote but this adds to the charm. We're happy to recommend and to return.

If you are looking for a place to relax and unwind with incredible food, facilities and in a gorgeous setting with friendly and helpful staff, then this is the place for you

Beautiful location with stunning views! Very laid back.Food was exceptional and all the staff were delightful could not do enough for you. A perfect place to relax & unwind which is what we had wanted. Decor & interiors were understated simple elegance in keeping with the Tuscan surroundings. Our suite was perfect, spacious & very comfortable . Thankyou to Massimo & Ricardo and all your staff ( a special mention to George, Loura and Andrea) for being so hospitable and attentive. Highly recommend the Parmesan flan, it’s worth every mouthful to wait for it to be freshly prepared for you…quite exceptional!! Kevin & Kate Wilson

Amazing cosy place, the service are unbelievable high, the owner have done everything to give us the best week ever, the rooms are so fine, the food and the wine is amazing good, we would like to go back again tomorrow, the interior all over also in the garden and the pool area are outstanding high end. So wonderful and relaxing ☺️🫶🏼🙏🏼 thank you for all.

We spent our 20th anniversary in one of the suites. The hotel is amazing and the staff even better! The upside: 1. The hotel is gorgeous, the grounds around it are beautiful. Our suite was massive and well appointed. 2. The staff and owner were as good as they come. They were very attentive and responsive. We got in late from our flight and missed dinner. They offered some light fare for us, we declined, but had a nice bottle of Chianti we enjoyed outside on one of the patios. Their house Chianti is excellent. 3. An absolute must is the cooking class. I grew up in the restaurant business and I learned a ton, plus the food was excellent. We had a ton of fun and it was just us. Definitely do this if staying there. 4. The little town it is in is very charming. My wife’s picked fresh figs from the trees around the area (we also saw tons of olive trees, prickly pear cactus, and pomegranates), and there is a cute little bodega where we enjoyed a sandwich and beer. 5. We had dinner one night at the hotel. The food was great and it’s a cute little dining room (also used for breakfast). 6. It’s close to a number of wineries and we ended up doing a wine tasting one evening and an olive oil tasting. We ended up ordering a case of wine from Rocca di Castagnoli and 3L of olive oil after a tasting at the olive farm next door. When driving to the vineyard we went through some backroads and on the way back we saw at least a dozen wild boar and a few deer as well. That was cool. The couple of items to consider: 1. You need a car. This worked great for us as we wanted to see several different cities. We drive to Siena and Arezzo, and drive to the train station to get to a Florence. There are some nice and surprising large supermarkets in the main town of Montevarchi about a 15 minute drive. It’s a good midpoint between many main cities in Tuscany and the train station was very convenient. 2. The only real downside were the mosquitoes. This was not the hotels fault obviously but they were everywhere, including our room. We made the mistake of opening a window one night as it was so nice and for the rest of the stay we got bitten each night and it made it difficult to sleep with all the buzzing. Overall, it’s one of the nicer hotels we have stayed in. Our room was well decorated and very unique, almost an apartment rather than a hotel room. If you are planning to visit a lot of places and want a single place to stay while in Tuscany you can’t beat the charm, luxury, and value.
