Even though in a building of dubious nineties mafia-style architecture, they are sweet and helpful and pool the available rooms around noon.

The price tag is a big hefty, but a wine tour with Tuscany Private Tours is oh so worth it…read more I was staying in the Castellina area of Chianti and was having a lot of trouble finding a company that would provide a private transfer to and from the hotel. Most tours leave from the Florence / Siena area, or have you meet them right at the winery. My feeling was that if I was spending a few days in Tuscany I wanted at least one day of not having to worry about driving to and from wineries. Thankfully we found Tuscany Private Tours and all was good. It is an extra 40 euro to add pick up and drop off at the hotel. But if you are going to all the trouble to arrange a private tour it would be the worst to have to drive 15-20 minutes to actually get to the tour. So again, you can really alleviate all driving with this if you want to. We took the 'Safari Tour' -- basically like a regular wine tour, except you get to cruise around in a super cool land rover. Our guide Paolo was awesome. He was super friendly and knowledgeable of wine and the area, and was overall just a really cool person to spend the day with. You visit three different wineries, tastings included at each and also have an included homemade winery lunch at your last stop. I liked that all three wineries have very different vibes. Our guide also mentioned that he chooses to do this on purpose. First stop -- a big commercial winery. Very cool to tour their production facility and then compare that to a production facility at a much smaller winery. Second Stop -- more of an urban experience. We visited a tasting room on the main street in Castellina. Paolo explained that he purposely takes people to this winery because it is one of the oldest in the area. After visiting several wineries in the rolling hills it was cool to also check one out in more of an industrial setting. Third Stop -- by far the best! Paolo took us to a very small winery. So small, that you'd probably only be able to find them if you have a tour guide that is friends with their family (ahem, Paolo). The grounds were absolutely gorgeous -- insane views of the Tuscan hills and gorgeous plants and greenery everywhere. We enjoyed a fantastic multi-course lunch -- pasta (of course), assorted crostinis, cheeses, meats and dessert. Because it's lunch (and maybe because it's the last stop?) we also had way more wine than just a taste. I'm here for it. If you want to try all wines before deciding which bottle to buy, they have every bottle available at the Tuscany Private Tour office. Tips for the tastings are included, but tips for your guide aren't, so be sure to bring some cash. Long review, but in short -- if you are not staying in the city and want to wine tour without worrying about driving then just do this. It's pricey but worth it for an incredible day. We will truly remember it forever.
Awesome wine tour! We had the best tour guide/driver GAIA! She was so sweet and we had the best…read moretime at all 3 wineries. We tasted a good mix of Chianti, Rosé, White blends, vin Santo (dessert wine), and a new fav Vermentino wines which you definitely can't find in the states! Ended the tour at a family farm house/ winery. We had a delicious farm to table lunch with limoncello and tiramisu to top it off. At the end of the tour you can "make your own box" of wines from each winery and ship it right to your house! Overall, excellent experience with the best views of Toscana, would def recommend to anyone looking for a private wine tour!

The hotel is perfectly located just a short drive from downtown and beaches. Walkable in 8/12 minutes. 2016: The bathrooms (slightly outdated) are well kept and very clean. The pool area and veranda are a real oasis. 2018: The bathrooms have been remodeled, tastefully so, and all the remaining carpeting has been change for either wood or vinyl. Organized work related retreats and have been there in the summer of 2011, 13, 15, 16, and 18. Due to the nature of my stays, I have seen and accessed many rooms and I have seen an consistant and positive evolution for this little family run hotel. Stayed here this summer again (2018) and was, extremely, pleased by my stay.

The rooms are very clean and there is even some local Corsican artwork showcased around the hotel.

Pretty good hotel, better than I was expecting actually. It's not very easy to find, we got lost…read moreand saw several others looking for the hotel as well but everyone in the area is used to pointing you in the right direction. We stayed in a suite which was quite spacious with nice views and several windows, two which were floor length and opened fully. The bed was comfy and the pillows were dense but not as bad as some places we've stayed. Their bathroom leaves a lot to be desired, tiny shower with a too small surround so water gets everywhere. There was water coming out the top of the shower head but it still functioned properly. There's a note above the toilet written in a very rude tone about not wasting towels but when you have to mop up after the shower it's hard not to "waste" them. We didn't get to use the wellness area as it was closed for construction or something like that, the pool was open but in a tiny closed area of a basement so we didn't bother. At night you can also hear music from local bars but it wasn't bothersome to me at all since it's very dull. There's no immediate parking but there is a parking structure near by - motorcyclists beware! The locals will break your blinkers and vandalize your bike if you park in the alleys, like they did to our bike, so you must park in the parking "citadel" - it's a bit shady to walk back on the steep dark staircases but the car park it's self is well lit and seemed secure enough. Other than the weird bathroom/shower we loved our room and the bed was comfy. The breakfast in the morning was good, although the hot foods were cold there was lots of other options.

Loved my stay here, and plan to return.

Perfect setting for one that wants to see Corsican sunset. As for food and service, there is…read moredefinitely room for improvement. Service was of unequal quality due to waiters organisation, with extra stars on some waiters and completely unprofessional behavior from others. We dined as a family of four with our four year old twin. Of course they are kids, do run around but in no way were there any annoyance to the people around. They were amused and very nice to us. The only person that despised them was our first waitress who clearly did not like children. Now in high peak August, restaurants are used to families, aren't they? This explains for parts the two stars but food was simple and average, not to the standards we expected from the reviews. Hubby got a côte de veau that wasn't all that good and that spent probably too much time in the fridge. Wine list was good but poor on food pairing advice. Do go if you're a couple or a party of adults only that are looking for a nice setting and view.

Learning that Americans like more than one cup of coffee in the morning, and that protein is essential for a long day of cycling, they brought us pots of coffee and cooked many eggs for us. For which we are very appreciative! The usual French breakfast of bread and jam would sustain one for about 12 minutes of cycling, so the eggs really helped. Algajola is a small town, so everything is close. The Spar market, just 100 meters away, has a good selection of groceries, beer and wine. I wish the owners of the hotel the best success in their business!
