The two highlights of this hotel are it's location and it's pool. Within the city walls, the hotel is an ancient building itself but conversion from a convent and modernisation seems to have removed much original charm.
Our room on the second floor was fine but nothing special. Breakfast was good and served outdoors in a courtyard. The pool and its surrounding roof terrace were very pleasant and welcome in the Tuscan heat. The hotel was within minutes of all the many interesting sights in Volterra.

The hotel is in an ideal location,5minute walk to main square in volterra.Also has parking which is expensive but necessary.Pool area is great.The hotel was nice,unfortunately I had a standard room right next to elevator and as I was staying for 6 days wasnt very impressed with both the size and noise.the room was small & very basic. the staff were pleasant enough although could have been more helpful and friendly. the bar seemed constantly closed which was a shame as there isnt much in the way of nightlife in volterra.
