The Velona Castle, located on a hill overlooking the Val d'Orcia, a Unesco World Heritage Site (2004), is a restored castle dating back to the 10th / 11th century. Located 1 h45 minutes from Florence and just 8 km from Montalcino, the Castle dominates the Val D’Orcia, with its typical landscape of olive trees and vineyards, which produce the famous Brunello di Montalcino. The Castle has a total of 16 rooms and 29 suites, and have been designed according to two different concepts: Castle rooms and Contemporary rooms. The Resort counts 3 restaurants, 2 of which are open for dinner with a Gourmet Menù at the Brunello Restaurant and traditional italian Cusine at Settimo Senso, and the Dolce Vita Pool Restaurante, located outside the pool area is open only for lunch. The OLISPA is an oasis of pure relaxation that extends over an area of 1500 square meters where the Tuscan travertine dominates in a linear and refined environment: Jacuzzi, two Turkish baths, a sauna, emotional showers and ice falls and 4 pools, two inside and two outside, with thermal water and open 24h.

The furniture is old, the facilities are incomplete, and there are all kinds of inconveniences. It is totally not worth the price. Disposable slippers and kettles were provided upon request. It is said that the charge of 8,000 yuan per night makes the guests take the initiative but the service is not adequate. Apart from selling the concept of a castle, there is nothing else worth visiting. The standard of the restaurant is also very average.

The 13th century castle was taken into a winery and hotel by the Americans. The rooms are super large and luxurious. The most important thing is to be close to nature. The back door of the hotel is your own vineyard olive garden. You can ride, hike and do various activities. You can also visit the winery, superb ~~~
