PROS: I found the staff very good, and the room was great value, very clean and well furnished, though the broken air-con meant it was too hot even in Oct. CONS: I found the hotels location offputting - at a junction on a very busy road interchange which made leaving the hotel on foot a hazardous thing. The roadbuilding nearby... more

We have just returned from an excellent week in the Hotel Certaldo, using it as a base to explore Tuscany. The staff could not have been more friendly or helpful, at the end of our stay it was liking saying goodbye to friends- how often can you say that? The rooms were immaculate and airy and the standard of chambermaiding... more

We stayed at the Hotel Certaldo for 4 nights in September 2007, and were very impressed. As other reviewers have noted, the hotel is new and only opened in June, and the staff and management try very hard to please. From the welcome glass of wine to the substantial breakfast, which is served until noon, everything about the hotel is... more

You need a car of course, to travel the cosy small nice places of Tuscany. Walking is a 10 minutes distance to the train station, but you have only trains to Florence or Siena (good enough to see). If you want to see the small nice villages of the Chianti hills, you'd better arrange a bike or a car. Hotel... more

Arrived at the hotel on the second day of opening and discovered that the pool wasn't ready yet. Amazingly, they got it ready in only four days. Experienced the inevitable teething problems that you would expect from a brand new hotel but found the staff to be excellent and very helpful. If they can prepare the hotel to its full... more

The pros: great value for money as the rooms are very nice (excellent beds, crisp linen, beautiful colours), soundproof, with good a/c. Bathrooms are not that big (small but good shower). Hotel staff was very nice. As the hotel had just opened, it took a bit of time for the personnel to get adjusted, but we were very happy with... more

Hotel très calme, récemment rénové, dans un petit village pas vraiment indiqué sur les guides de voyages, mais dont la... more
