Castello Vicchiomaggio
$160-250/ 晚
如果以下情況適用，請預訂 You want the full 'Under the Tuscan Sun' fantasy—sleeping in a 1400s castle, drinking Chianti Classico made on-site, and waking up to vineyard views that look like a Renaissance painting.
為什麼人們喜歡它
- The infinity pool offers one of the most photographed valley views in all of Chianti
- Authentic castle vibes with terracotta floors and antique furniture, not a sterile hotel chain
- On-site winery tours and tastings mean you can drink world-class red without driving
快速概覽： It’s a fairytale castle until the wedding DJ starts blasting 80s hits below your window on a Saturday night.
由 @somehowimeverywhere 評論: My stay here was a total dream. Waking up to those rolling vineyard views and exploring the ancient wine cellars made me feel like I’d stepped back in time. The Chianti Classico is honestly the best I’ve ever tasted and the silence at night is pure bliss.

Reality check
The 'rustic charm' can feel 'outdated' to some, with complaints about weak WiFi, finicky water pressure, and hard mattresses.
- You have a rental car and want a base for exploring Florence and Siena
- You dream of sipping wine by an infinity pool overlooking rolling Tuscan hills
- You appreciate historical quirks over modern sleekness
清潔與維護
9
- Housekeeping: Daily service is reliable; guests consistently praise the staff for keeping the rooms tidy.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally spotless, though fixtures can be dated. No reports of mold or grime.
- Maintenance: Good for a 600-year-old building, but expect creaky floors, stiff door handles, and the occasional plumbing quirk.
- Linens & towels: Clean and crisp, though some guests find the mattresses on the harder side.
- Odors & scents: Neutral to fresh; no musty 'old castle' smells reported.

常見問題與隱藏小貼士
預訂前您真正想知道的一切。
Is there air conditioning?
Yes, but not in every single room. The renovated suites and 'Canonica' rooms usually have it; older castle rooms might not. Verify your specific booking.
Is the pool heated?
No. It is a seasonal outdoor infinity pool and can be quite chilly in May or October.
How far is it from Florence and Siena?
It is about 18km (30-40 min drive) from Florence and 38km (50-60 min drive) from Siena.
Is breakfast included?
Yes, a buffet breakfast is typically included in the rate, featuring local pastries, cold cuts, and cheeses.
Can I eat dinner at the castle?
Yes, but check the schedule. The restaurant 'Vicchiomaggio' serves lunch daily but dinner is often limited to specific nights (e.g., Mon/Wed/Fri/Sat).
Is it pet friendly?
No, pets are generally not allowed.
內幕秘訣
- ✨
There is an 'honesty bar' in the common area—great for a late-night glass of Chianti when the staff has gone home.
- ✨
Book the Monday morning wine tour if possible; it often includes a visit to the cellars and a tasting.
- ✨
Ask for a table on the terrace for breakfast; the morning mist over the Greve valley is magical.
出發前需要知道的 5 件事
💡Leonardo da Vinci allegedly stayed here while painting the Mona Lisa (and drew the castle in his papers).
💡The 'WiFi' is basically non-existent in the thick-walled castle rooms; you will be forced to disconnect.
💡The water pressure can be 'finicky'—classic 15th-century plumbing quirks.
💡You might find local wildlife (lizards, bugs) in your room; it's a farm stay in the country.
💡The drive up to the castle is steep and narrow; take it slow if you have a large rental car.
