I stayed at Castello di Gargonza in September 2011 for four days to attend my son's wedding. A magic time. The whole wedding party - guests and all - stayed there. We had the most wonderful time - the hotel staff were extremely helpful and made our stay so much more enjoyable. The surroundings were picturesque and the apartments we... More

That was our first stay during trip through Tuscany region. We arrive late night, and as appeared were only third guest in the whole caste. The receptionist was very nice and friendly person. She actually served a breakfast for us as well, and did short overview of castle. It was a small village before that was recently was turn out... More

This was an Alistair Sawday recommendation and that really sums it up. Tasteful, different, charming and off the beaten track. The other reviews say 'magical' and it we cannot disagree. While it is quite a long way off the beaten track, that is what we wanted for this part of our holiday and it is perfect. Within minutes of arrival... More

We found this place very last minute but was everything that you can ask for! Great food, amazing views, and beautiful well kept estate. Highly recommend it for those looking for a quiet retreat away from Florence or Rome's busy streets and un the heart of Tuscany area.

My husband and I chose to get married at Gargonza on 9th June 2012. It was the most magical 3 days of our lives. I'm almost lost for words as to how special this place is. If you are looking for something rustic and a little bit different but forsaking nothing with regards to quality then look no further. The... More

My husband and I stayed here for two nights in mid-March for our honeymoon. It was clearly the off-season as we were the only inhabitants. However, we were never made to feel in the way. On the contrary, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and at home. The rooms are simple, but comfortable, and the... More

I hope that says it all. Gargonza is great value for money and I never fail to stay here once or twice a year. It is Tuscany. Yes, it has minor irritations, such as wonderful log fires instead of dreadful TV. Food is plentiful, even too much, but excellent for the prices. Romantic too

Stayed here for a weekend as part of a friends wedding. There was about 80 in the party. Have a very enjoyable weekend. The setting is amazing. Staff very friendly and the food was very good. Most of the accomodation consists of converted old vilage houses so me and my partner had our own small two story house. The views... More

Gargonza is literally an old village enclosed in a castle wall. It is secluded, and a 10 minute drive from the nearest sizeable town. The location is beautiful, and very atmospheric. The staff at reception were very friendly, helping us with local directions etc. The common areas are very nice, with a small walled-in garden and a sitting area with... More
