Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
By Axel Hernborg · Updated 5 September 2026 · How we review hotels
Castello di Casole, A Belmond Hotel, Tuscany works well for travellers who want castle architecture without sacrificing modern comfort. The restored medieval building sits on an extensive countryside estate, with rooms finished in Carrara marble bathrooms and two distinct restaurants on-site. An airport shuttle and free parking are included, easing arrival logistics. That said, the estate is around 40 kilometres from Siena's centre, and the rural surroundings mean a car is useful for exploring further afield. Some rooms are located in separate buildings across the grounds, which suits travellers happy to walk a little further to reach communal areas but may not suit everyone.
Guests score it 9.6 out of 10 — the average across the 16 hotels we list in Tuscany is 9.3.
What Guests Loved
- Dating back centuries, the castle structure lends the property a historic character rarely found in modern luxury hotels, with thick stone walls and commanding views over the Tuscan hills.
- Bathrooms combine freestanding tubs with Carrara marble or mosaic flooring and antique mirrors, giving each room a tactile sense of craftsmanship beyond standard hotel finishes.
Things to Consider
- Siena's historic center sits roughly 40 kilometers away, meaning a day trip requires around 40 minutes each way by car, which may not suit guests wanting a city base.
- Certain accommodations are housed in buildings 15 to 200 meters from the main castle, which adds a short walk and may matter to guests wanting immediate access to core facilities.
