COMO Castello Del Nero, Tuscany, is a 740-acre, historic estate in the world-famous Chianti wine region of Italy — and COMO’s first property in continental Europe, offering the same precise service, therapeutic wellness experiences and exceptional food established by the brand in its twenty-year history. The Renaissance cities of Florence and Siena are both within a 30-minute drive, with the wider destination opened up for guests, from hiking to biking to carefully guided cultural excursions.
At the property’s heart stands a twelfth-century Castello featuring 50 rooms and suites with interiors by Milanese designer, Paola Navone. While the Castello’s historic terracotta flooring, fresco walls and vaulted ceilings remain untouched, Navone has introduced a light and modern ‘COMO’ aesthetic, to complement and enhance the period architecture of the Castello, without losing any of the deeply authentic historic texture.
Cuisine is also a key element of the hotel experience.
The Michelin-starred La Torre restaurant is located in the original stables of the Castello in the winter, transferring to the garden terrace in summer. All menus are overseen by Executive Chef, Giovanni Luca Di Pirro.
Menus showcase gourmet Italian cuisine, using the finest Tuscan produce, much of it from the estate’s kitchen-garden. The estate has its own vineyard, beehives and olive groves. It is literally ‘farm to table’, with the garden carefully overseen by Di Pirro.
There are also two informal restaurants, La Taverna and the Pavilion, which is an outdoor restaurant open during the summer. At La Taverna’s bar and wine cellar, COMO mixologists are ready to give every drink a modern twist, from Martinis to Prosecco cocktails.
In addition, there are tennis courts and a heated outdoor swimming pool.
For wellness, guests can visit COMO Shambhala Retreat, which offers complimentary morning yoga, therapeutic massages and expert guidance in holistic wellness.

His Opinion: We loved the hotel, location, and the warm hospitality of the staff here. Great location in addition and a peaceful rest stop while visiting Florence , Sienna, and Sam Gimignano among other charming spots in Tuscany and the charming town of Tavarnelle VP. Highly recommend a visit to Antinori in Chianti Classico which is very close and a must visit for wine lovers!

His Opinion: This property was absolutely amazing! Our room was very well appointed, and the views were stunning.The staff was very helpful and accommodating. We had an unforgettable dinner at La Torre and I got to experience the COMO Shambala massage at the Spa which was incredible. We cannot wait to come back to this exceptional hotel. (the only disappointment was the pool was not open for our daughter). Thanks, Michelle

His Opinion: Fabulous place to stay. The staff are so courteous, polite and helpful. Dining is excellent too. The one change I would make is to have a menu in the lounge as well. It would be nice to offer a light appertif or meal while having a cocktail. The rooms are well appointed and spacious. The gardens and view are breathtaking. Quite an amazing experience and a must stay!
