We chose the hotel for the charming Castle atmosphere, to relax at the pool and sleep well. The pool was closed for renovation (stupid idea to renovate a pool end of June!), there was EVERY NIGHT of our stay a super loud wedding taking place just literally meters away from our room. We couldn't sleep at night. We went crazy with the loud music. Last but not least, when we booked the hotel, seeing the great outdoor area it has we were expecting that breakfast would be outdoor in the garden. Well, no. It is down in a small cave and the breakfast was horrible. The Management is really doing everything against logic. As it is a very expensive hotel, it is clearly not worth it. I wouldn't recommend it

This was one of the most beautiful, unique, and extraordinary places I have stayed and I travel a lot. Built as an armory in the 1300s.. then a private residence with a pink palazzo. Just stunning. Lovely, clean and unique rooms. Beautiful grounds. Excellent accommodating staff.

Good room-eventually!!
When we arrived they gave us room 207 which was a box room at the top of stairs with no window to see out--depressing. I showed them pics on Hotels.com of room we had booked--which was nothing like the one given-and they then found us a much better room. Staff were helpful and apologetic but it took us some time to settle down!!

Lovely stay with my family
Beautiful room, grounds and pool. We stayed with our daughter for one night and it was really lovely for children too. Drinks at the bar were unnecessarily expensive with the usual Tuscan bottles and prices in the restaurant. Restaurant was nice not outstanding but lovely location and outdoors which in current times is reassuring. We would definitely stay again, super close to Como too.

Great historical architecture and story
Pretentious and indifferent staff. Very little English spoken. Restaurant food quality good, but a bit expensive and not as good as the almost comically stuffy wait staff think it is. I went in December, so the pool area wasn't open. Other than enjoying the castle architecture and wondering how they did all that, and thinking about the history, don't expect much to do without getting in a car. Rooms, hallways, not up to USA safety standards - poorly (or not) lit hallways. Easily missed steps in dark areas. Broken light in bedroom hanging by hot wires. Still, the castle itself is really something to see and stay in despite all of the above. Toss up whether I'd stay there again.
