“Hotel Le Fontanelle”, a prestigious 5-star hotel in the centre of Tuscany, was created by the conservative renovation of an ancient farm-house complex whose centre dates back to the 13th century. It stands in one of the most panoramic and uncontaminated areas of Chianti Classico, where the view is 360° over lands with ancient fascination.
All the bedrooms of the Hotel Le Fontanelle, characterised by special particulars and by careful choice of furnishings, guarantee a stay with absolute relaxation among nature, among the olive trees and the vineyards of traditional Tuscan countryside, in a context without time and which still preserves intact its historical and environmental values.
Before the sun goes down, in the bedrooms enhanced by careful details you will be enchanted contemplating every window as though it were a painting. The fresh caress of linen, the comfort and the refinement of the furnishings complete the atmosphere. To enter inside these walls is to open a priceless jewel-case: suggestive environment and warm atmosphere – the promise of rich emotional experiences.
Stillness – that’s the key element of our Classic rooms. The style is that of a rustic Tuscan home, with richly-colored terracotta floors, ceilings of exposed beams, and soft floral fabrics. Outside and beyond the windows you’ll take in the unforgettable view of the vineyards of Chianti that surround the hotel, from the moment you awake to when the sun goes down.
Set in the small farmhouse close to the pool, the Prestige rooms are reminiscent of small country homes. The feeling inside is one of calm and intimacy, the style is chic and elemental. Outside, the private garden is perfect for enjoying the summer, far from the rest of the world.
With large windows and open spaces, the Deluxe rooms feel airy and full of light. Inside you’ll feel the simple, refined beauty of the Tuscan decor. Outside lies the extraordinary nature of the surrounding countryside: hills covered with olive trees and ripe vines, the gardens filled with wind and sun.
The private terrace overlooking Chianti is the star feature of our Junior Suites. You’ll find it hard to pull your eyes away from the infinite expanse of fields, vines, olive groves that lie before you. Your dream landscape for a delicious glass of wine from our cellar.
More than suites, these are private residences. Full immersion in the beauty of Chianti.
Inside, the bedroom and separate lounge are furnished with rustic elegance. Outside, you can relax fully in the large private garden, enjoy its scents of aromatic herbs and ivy, and look out over the Tuscan landscape that stretches as far as the eye can see.

His Opinion: The hotel is beautiful and very comfy. However it is not a hotel for family. It is for couples. I have 2 kids (9y and 1y) and the hotel has nothing to offer to them in terms of leisure and recreation.
One of the restaurants doesn't even allow kids below 14 years old and the SPA is not for kids as well. The beautiful outdoor pool (found in several photos when you are booking) is not allowed as well !!
Have to say that despite of the above comment, we appreciate the staff, the GREAT breakfast and the treats in the bedroom.

His Opinion: Très bon séjour
Suggestions d’amélioration : le sauna n’était jamais chaud, une bouilloire dans la chambre serait bienvenue (café thé), la partie bar pourrait avoir un fond musical d’ambiance pour la rendre plus chaleureuse
Le reste était parfait
