+ Our stay at Castello di Velona was absolutely unforgettable and one of the highlights of our trip to Tuscany. The setting is breathtaking, with spectacular views over the rolling hills and vineyards of Val d'Orcia. Every corner of the property feels special, and the rooms were immaculate, spacious, and beautifully maintained. The attention to detail and cleanliness throughout the hotel was exceptional. A heartfelt thank you to Gloria and Ellen for the wonderful massages. Their professionalism, expertise, and caring approach made for an incredibly relaxing and rejuvenating experience. They are both truly talented therapists and made our spa experience unforgettable. We also loved the wine tasting with Elena and Valentina. Their knowledge, passion, and enthusiasm for the local wines made the experience both educational and enjoyable. It was fantastic to discover that the wines can be shipped directly to Australia, so we can continue enjoying a taste of Tuscany when we return home. The food was outstanding throughout our stay. A special mention goes to the Spaghetti all’Amatriciana, which was absolutely delicious—rich, authentic, and one of the best versions of this classic Italian dish we have ever tasted. Complimenti allo chef! From the stunning views and luxurious accommodations to the exceptional spa treatments, incredible wine experiences, and outstanding cuisine, everything about our stay was first class. Un soggiorno semplicemente perfetto. Panorama mozzafiato, camere impeccabili, massaggi fantastici con Gloria ed Ellen, una splendida degustazione con Elena e Valentina, e una Spaghetti all’Amatriciana da sogno. Grazie di cuore a tutto il team di Castello di Velona per l'ospitalità e la professionalità. Non vediamo l'ora di tornare. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a true luxury Tuscan experience. 🇮🇹🍷✨ Our stay at Castello di Velona was absolutely unforgettable and one of the highlights of our trip to Tuscany.

+ This is not the first time we have visited the hotel-SPA, and we can say that in this case we found ourselves quite satisfied. Being able to swim in the thermal water pool is a wonderful experience. Also pleased that the thermal baths could be taken right in the room. The most valuable thing about the hotel is its location. Whilst the service was decent, it's accessibility to the main wine regions, and views in all directions was still the most important thing. Stepping out on the patio or climbing out of the pool we were directly frozen by the incredible beauty of Val d'Orcia. The staff were very attentive and tried their best to help. For example, the nearest bridge over the Orcia River was closed for repairs and we would have had to take a circuitous route to the restaurant. However, the member of staff at reception found out that the bridge was accessible at the weekend, even though all the navigators showed otherwise, and we saved a lot of travelling time. One of the most powerful experiences was a wine tasting in the Castle, conducted by the hotel sommelier. He told us about local wine in a wonderful, clear and interesting way, showed us vineyards, shared the secrets of their care and explained the peculiarities of each variety tasted. We were very impressed and grateful for this unique experience!
− As usual, the bathroom is categorically lacking in clothes hooks, there could have been a lot more of them. The staff did not always understand what we asked them to do, probably due to a lack of English.
