Castello di Spaltenna

Gaiole in Chianti, Italy

This hotel is seasonal and welcoming guests from April to October.

A castle fit for a fairy tale in the heart-snaring Tuscan countryside

Tucked within the Tuscan hills, Castello di Spaltenna has all the hallmarks of a storybook castle. From four-poster beds to winding olive groves, you’re surrounded by character inside and out. Far-reaching views over Sangiovese vineyards create an uplifting and utterly relaxing setting – this is a place for history, wine and the romance of the countryside.

Indoors, the rooms and suites are where this boutique hotel really shines. Each bedroom is unique – you could open the door to a classic fireplace, jacuzzi or vineyard views. Or opt instead for a country-style apartment with your own sun-drenched terrace. Cypresses, olive trees and wild woods surround Castello di Spaltenna, so the views are spectacular. Enjoy them while lounging in the warm pool in summer, or take in the frost-fringed evergreens through the panoramic windows during winter months.

Whatever the season, a short walk from the hotel brings you to the idyllic town of Gaiole in Chianti – home to wine, cultural events and castles. And, of course, an Tuscany’s proud tradition of food and drink. From the prestigious olive oils of Castello di Cacchiano to the intriguing cellars of Meleto Castle, you’ll bring back more than just stories from this timeless town.

Enjoy your stay!

Amazing castle in a unique atmosphere

Spending the day at the pool surrounded by Tuscanian nature is wonderful. The only improvement needed would be in the rooms (poor acoustic isolation)

Beautiful hotel in a great location

Unique hotel in a great location to explore the surroundings. The spa is great for relaxing and contemplating the views. The swimming pool is also great for when the weather is too hot. Only downside of this place would be the breakfast which don't leave up to the uniquness and luxury of this hotel. Read more[SPLIT]Read less

Dolce far niente

Settled in an old monastery near a small village in rural Tuscany, Castello do Spaltenna is the perfect place to relax and wind down. Long walks through the woods and vineyards of Chianti, tastings at the Castello or in some nearby wineries and finally the wonderful dinners at the Michelin starred Restaurant Read more[SPLIT]Read less(ask the Sommelier Thomas for his suggestions) are the perfect excuse to do nothing at all. And if you listen very quietly you might hear the wild boars foraging in the gardens at night.
