A little difficult to find because of the signage on the S408 but I can see why for not wanting to spoil the beautiful views of the region. We were met with open arms by the staff who introduced us to the facility with a short tour and then to our gorgeous room (with a view). September is perfect and... more

We travelled for the first time to Italy this year and stayed in 5 luxury hotels/villas in Rome, Umbria, Tuscany, Florence and Venice. Our stay at Le Fontanelle was by far the high point of the trip. Every element of our stay was first class. You will not find a finer place to stay and explore the beauty of Tuscany.... more

It's the best hotel I ever stayed. The landscape is a dream and the hotel perfect. "Service" is here not only a word but reality. The only issue is to find the place, but when you find it, you cannot believe that this is existing. I spent some days of my honeymoon trip there and for me and my wife... more

I traveled with my daughter and her baby, another married daughter and my college age son. They all loved being there. Everyone was so accommodating and helpful to all of us, including my 3 month old granddaughter. I wish we had rented a car but I thought since we were only there for 5 days and they had a van... more

Le Fontanelle was an awesome hotel. Sitting near the top of the hill, there are miles of panoramic views. Some of the rooms had the fantastic views but ours did not. Each room has a private entrance. There weren't a lot of people around and the place was never at full capacity during our stay. I got sick while there... more

We just returned from a wonderful week at Le Fontanelle, a new 25 room hotel meticulously restored from a seventeenth century convent. It is situated atop a hill with a 360 paranoramic veiw of the Chianti countryside. While it exceeded the basic requirements of its 5 star rating, it was distunguished by the on site presence of its local owner,... more

I came back to this hotel some days ago, just to meet our US friends who at that time were living at Fontanele. Just point out - last year during a trip throughout Tuscany we drove by the hotel by chance and had there a very-very good dinner. Our memories are still "alive" because of the great sense of hospitality... more

Just back from an organised trip to Tuscany over a long weekend, and stayed two nights at Le Fontanelle. We have been lucky enough to stay at a large number of 5 star hotels, and this rates towards the very top. If you work, or live, in a very pressurised environment, this is the place for you....it is in a... more

This is a true 5 star hotel. Though there are only 24 rooms, you will want for nothing. Just opened in July 2006, this hotel has paid attention to detail. The sheets are linen, the glasses are crystal and the service is sterling. Our room was of adequate size for a short stay and had a private garden. Breakfast begins... more
