Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

CanadaNo hot water for the shower, and later in the day it was not a consistent temp- too hot or too cold.
Beautiful castle, able to walk around and up the tower to enjoy the view.

The setting around the restaurant is absolutely beautiful, it is quintessential Tuscany, the building are truly rustic and exactly what you would want a Tuscan experience to be

United KingdomNot the fault of the property- we did not have a car. We were able to get a bus from Siena on the way there but did not realise that the buses do not run on a Sunday- taxi was €100 for a 30min journey Also dinner felt very overpriced- vegetarian option for one course was some leek and puree
Unique accommodation, beautiful surrounding. Staff were very helpful! Would stay again but have a car

United StatesNot the fault of the facility but we had been climbing steps all day until our arrival at the castle which we are then subject to more steps not an easy place to get around.
Upon arrival was stunned by a image of the Tower the beauty of the landscape and the accommodations.

United Arab EmiratesWe loved our stay there. We had an amazing wine tasting session. We had chance to spend time outside although it was cold a little. Rooms are really old but we enjoyed staying there as it was only one night. Food was amazing. Breakfast had many options. Kids..played in fhe garden and loved the fact that they could go up to the tower or see a dungeon.

SwitzerlandThe only downside is probably the restaurant, not that it is not great. The food was delicious just very limited options and not really filling portions for the price you pay disappointing. Tuscan recipes kind of fine dining, experimental portions which wasnt filling enough for the boys:)
Supernice Castillo, great pool, the lounge area outdoors was nice. a quick climb of some stairs to the roof of the tower took us to a beautiful sunset, is a must during your stay we were adviced by the staff! Very unique interirors and all castle is accessible to visitors. Very friendly staff is always the best! Also you get to open a bottle of wine from the castillos own production and enjoy it theoughout your stay.

United KingdomI can't think of anything.
This property is a hidden gem in the Tuscan countryside. The rooms are rustic but lovely and the location is close to stunning towns and villages like Siena, Castellina, Radda, Panzano, Grieve, Volpaia and Castagnoli. Breakfast is varied and plentiful and we had dinner one night in the restaurant which was delicious. All in all a great place to stay to explore the region.
