Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Fantastic location both inside and out in Lunigiana. It is an ancient castle carefully restored. The restaurant room is carefully furnished, the service is attentive and never intrusive. Compliments to the room manager, courteous, professional and very helpful. The cuisine is traditional and of good quality, with dishes of the right quantity and well presented. Very kind to meet the needs of a celiac person.

This is a wonderful place to stay inland from La Spezia. The hotel has a small team of amazing staff who do everything to ensure you have a fantastic experience. The castle has been refurbished to a high standard and there are many little extras in the rooms to make your stay most enjoyable. The menu for dinner consists of a selection of freshly prepared local dishes, well worth a try. Continental breakfast is superb, delicious pastries! The pool and spa are an added bonus.

Mateo and his staff made us feel like royalty, staying in an authentic castle. We arrived late one evening, tired and hungry, after a failed Airbnb. The staff pulled out all the stops, opening up the kitchen, feeding us and getting us settled in our luxurious suites. It was a wonderful end to a very long day. We stayed three relaxing nights. The service was excellent and food was fantastic. (Breakfasts and dinners) We enjoyed the pool. The staff were happy to arrange for spa amenities and massages. The train is a ten minute drive away, making a trip into La Spezia and Cinque Terra easy. At times, we couldn’t believe this place was real, but it never disappointed.

We stayed at this wonderful property from 12 to 17 in the Marie Antoinette suite. Immediately the staff was very welcoming and considerate. Congratulations to the Chef because the kitchen really amazed us, exquisite dishes. Thank you for making our holiday unforgettable.

We stayed here for two nights in mid August after a disastrous Airbnb property. I really feel like Roberta and the castle rescued us! From the minute we arrived we were welcomed with great enthusiasm. The hotel itself is an amazing building which has been beautifully restored with a real mix of modern and traditional decor. The family suite we were given was enormous, basically two rooms - a twin and a king size! Air conditioning in both rooms and an amazing space. There is a small spa area which we were able to book for an hour with a huge multi person jacuzzi bath, a sauna, a steam room, and a rainforest shower. The four of us thoroughly enjoyed our time in here relaxing. We're also told they will be building a swimming pool next year which will be stunning once it's done. The hotel has only been open since November and for us it was nothing short of perfect. The breakfast is continental, with lovely offerings, and you can ask for anything cooked in addition to this. We also chose to eat in their lovely restaurant on our final night, where they were really accommodating with food for our children, and the meal was delicious. All in all, this hotel is a gem in the middle of the mountains and will only go from strength to strength. It's a gorgeous hotel with friendly, accomodating staff and we really enjoyed our stay here. Should we ever be back to this region of Italy I would not hesitate to stay here again. Thanks so much to Roberta and her team for helping us out of our situation and giving us one of the best hotel stays we've ever had as a family.

Called in for coffee today. Enjoyed coffee, cake and a tour of the hotel making ti a thoroughly enjoyable morning for our friends and ourselves. Nothing is too much trouble in this wonderful environment. If the weather is fine, be sure to sit in the central courtyard.

Wanted a venue for a seventieth birthday dinner. Newly refurbish after many years of work, thought we would give it a try. Staff could have not been more helpful. Sorted out a menu for us with good vegetarian choices. On the night were greeted at the door. Waitress was attentive but not overbearing, Though we had selected a menu, the small extra dishes kept appearing but the courses were not rushed. Two of the courses had sub courses. In all we had 8 dishes. All the food was beautifully presented and delicious. Chef had obviously had a busy day and worked wonders. We requested the birthday girl's favourite dessert - baked Alaska. Chef came up trumps again turning it into a birthday cake and it even had a candle! Well done everyone. We hope that this new establishment is well supported and goes from strength to strength. It deserves recognition!

We stayed at this hotel for only 1 night but wished it was for longer! What a lovely castle, it has been restored beautifully and was a great experience staying there! We booked 2 rooms as our son was with us and they was both really clean and had lots of character and lovely decor! We asked if we could use the spa and this was set up for us the same afternoon, we had a lovely relax in the jacuzzi and used the sauna and steam room. When we came back later that night the beds had been turned down and ready to get into! What a lovely touch to an amazing experience! We sat outside in a courtyard area for breakfast with lovely flowers on each table, we ordered eggs and bacon which was very delicious! Will definitely be going back and would recommend this hotel 👍😊
