La Vecchia Cartiera

Like others, we were walking the Via Francigena. Hotel is below the town so a bit of a slog in for sight seeing. Room was fine, but air conditioning weak. The receptionist who greeted us was great. Friendly, efficient and very helpful. She even suggested an slightly alternate route that was great. The Restaurant was very mixed. One of the wait staff was friendly and helpful while the other was diffident at best. In a restaurant with 5 occupied table she served our coffee to someone else. The food was just OK. To give you a sense, the parmesan cheese for pasta and salad oil were served in takeaway packs and we never did receive vinegar to go with the oil, despite asking. Sorry, would not recommend.

We stayed one night on a walking tour booked by Camino ways, it was the one place in the weeks tour I would have checked out of were it not for our pre organised luggage transfer. We were given a tiny room that had a joint entry door to another room from the corridor. The doors rattled and it was with a cramped bathroom, chipped bath, noisy plumbing, paper thin walls. The room stank of stale smoke and we couldn’t find anywhere to sit outside our room to relax, no garden or outside space. The smokers hung round outside the front door. The hotel restaurant downstairs inside was awful, we were supposed to be on half board, the fixed menu was all in Italian and the waitress gave us wrong information, we chose chips and meat, no chips available then told we were only allowed to choose one course! Complete farce. The only decent thing about this hotel was the very friendly, helpful receptionist, she was lovely and gave us directions to rejoin the walk in the morning, we couldn’t wait to leave after a noisy, sleepless night. If you visit this town I would recommend staying uphill not down town.

Colazione ottima e completa, cortesia, pulizia, camere comode e ristorante sotto l'albergo con ottima cucina. Posto auto incluso. Unico appunto: quando ci sono eventi in piazza bisogna fare una stradina particolare per raggiungere il garage. Bisognerebbe che l'albergo stampasse una mappa per agevolare coloro che non sono mai stati a Colle Val D'Elsa

Abbiamo soggiornato una notte con un gruppo di 12 persone . Ottima accoglienza, hotel in centro, camere medie e perfettamente pulite , cortesia e gentilezza splendidi . Colazione Super !! Grazie , siamo stati veramente molto bene e la vostra disponibilità ha contribuito al ricordo di una breve ma piacevolissima vacanza.

Posto giusto ai piedi del borgo storico che si raggiunge sia in auto che con una piccola camminata offre un soggiorno tranquillo in ambiente comodo, camere pulite che consentono una buona qualità del sonno,personale gentilissimo. L'hotel dispone di un parcheggio sotterraneo dal quale si raggiunge direttamente con ascensore la hall.

Abbiamo soggiornato in questo hotel solo per una notte, purtroppo!!! ma, pur non essendo nuovissimo, abbiamo apprezzato la pulizia, la camera al 3° piano con vista sul castello meravigliosa, la doccia confortevole e i materassi comodissimi. La gentilezza e la simpatia del personale hanno contribuito a rendere una chicca il nostro soggiorno. Daniele e Annalisa
