Castello di Selvole Reviews from the Web
Located in the middle of Tuscan vinyards. Because we were there in the off season, we were the only ones at the property. Wood burning stove in the appartment was cozy. Price was great.

The property is the perfect place to get away. It is a vineyard about 12 km north of Siena city center in the hills of Tuscany. The apartment was the perfect size for the two of us and was well kept with a rustic feel to it. The pool is nice and offers a great view of the surrounding hills.

this property was absolutely beautiful. there were so many areas to explore we were planning to travel into the city and ended up staying on the property for the entire day because of its beauty. If you do stay, you must star gaze!!!

Great efficiency apartment in an awesome setting.
Right in the middle of a vineyard estate on a hill
with vineyards and olive trees stretching for miles
around you. Laura, the receptionist, was great,
pointing out travel tips in Siena and the area.
The owners, Guido and Nobuko, were very friendly,
helpful and kind. It's a great place to stay, and
terrific value for the money. Definitely recommended.

It is a gorgeous property in the country side of Tuscany, very quiet and relaxing. The rooms are great, with space to cook and have a fire too. The staff were great, and looked after us with everything. As we were there in colder months we didn't use the pool, but during summer it would be awesome. I loved this place so much, and can't wait to go back.

very clean and nice we lived in the yellow building, best location, good breakfast in the downstair cafe of cause you pay for it. a little noisy because it is in a plaza but as sensitive as me, brought a lot sleeping pills, never got change to use one of them because after one day walking/exploring you'll be very tired. no elevator but we survived. Will be back to here for sure. Strong recommended. The price is great too.

It was a delightful location in the midst of Tuscany, with great views of the vineyards. The unit had a great olde worlde feel to it, yet clean, with comfortable beds. Beautiful serene surroundings.

Very relaxing place to experience Siena. Great owners that are more than willing to help. The wine is delicious! Would definitely stay there again. Only downside was the fact that it was pretty far outside the city, so I'd recommend a car for your stay. Other than that, it was wonderful!

Amazing & beautiful location. Off the beaten track so needed to hire a car, but perfect spot for exploring the Tuscan Countryside. (And more of a self-catering facility than a hostel really)
