Como Castello Del Nero

Location: The hotel is nestled beautifully in the Chianti area, offering stunning views of Tuscany's rolling hills and vineyards, close to Florence and Siena, making it an ideal location for exploring the region.

We stayed here for 3 nights as a side trip to our stay in Florence. The hotel is spectacular! It’s a castle overlooking beautiful Tuscan hills and olive groves. Amenities were top notch. Breakfast in the Pavilion was so delicious and everything was so fresh. Yoga with Giulia facing the hills in the morning was a wonderful way to begin our day. What made our stay even more special was the staff. From the bell hop to the breakfast wait staff everyone treated us like we were well liked family members :). Giulia at the front desk, Maria at the spa and Francesca , Valentina and Giuseppe at the Pavilion deserve special mention. If you are planning a trip to Tuscany you must stay here!

Do Not Be Fooled by the Views - This Hotel Was a Huge Disappointment Jun 2025 My family and I stayed here for two nights and I must say, this is one of the most overrated hotel stays of our life. Sure, the view's nice. And that is where the pros end. Staff check-in took over an hour with attitudes from staff even though we were polite. We had two rooms-one Como Suite and one Estate Room-and both were outdated and underwhelming. Bare walls, horrible. The Estate Room had a terrible moldy smell-so much so that we all left with coughs and sinusitis. When we complained, the staff just said "okay" and that was the end of it. We also requested twin real beds in the Estate Suite-we received a queen and an awful, old, rollaway bed that was so uncomfortable my other son had to sleep on the couch-and he spent the whole trip in a bad mood due to lack of sleep. Ridiculously unacceptable for this price. Staff operates a Michelin star restaurant? A simple three course meal took three hours. There were no a la carte options. Which was an issue since one of are family members is pescatarian. The "non-fancy" restaurant was equally disappointing. The food was fine but it was a battle of hand waving to get the servers’ attention after waiting 15+ minutes. The pool was beautiful, but there was one overworked (and admittedly lovely) server forced to help 20 people, so again, service was tough. The pillows on the couch in the Estate Room smelled funny. We told staff and they did nothing. WE STAYED IN ROOM 403 AND 404. DO NOT STAY IN 403.
