Hotel Foresteria

Set in the middle of nature and about a half-hour walk from the centre of Volterra, Foresteria is an oasis of peace and relaxation. The hotel has two floors plus a ground floor. The lift is large and spacious. The rooms are spacious and bright. For hot days, there are roller blinds on the large balcony window, as well as air conditioning. The bed is large, the mattress comfortable, and extra pillows and blankets are available. There is plenty of storage space, and the bathroom is spacious. The shower has only an overhead shower head, but it is flexible. Housekeeping is carried out regularly and in accordance with hygiene standards. For breakfast, there is a choice between a continental breakfast and, of course, an Italian breakfast. The hotel grounds are very spacious and pleasant. There is a large free parking available on the site. The staff are very friendly, helpful and always available when needed, with a positive attitude and a genuine willingness to assist. Thank you to everyone at Foresteria for making our stay so pleasant!

Good location (just a short walk into Volterra proper), a serviceable room, and very friendly and obliging staff. Usefully, the hotel had a large car park and EV charging was available onsite.

The breakfast was somewhat spartan (although that's not particularly unusual for Italy), and overall the hotel could do with a bit of modernisation. However, these are somewhat superficial complaints and did not detract from the overall enjoyment of our stay - we would absolutely stay there again.

Quiet location. Lovely garden to sit and read. The rooms were spotless. The pillows and linens fresh and comfortable.

Clean, simple room. Reception staff was very helpful when I was trying to find a laundromat and a taxi available despite it being a national holiday.

Was a bit away from the main town. Restaurant at “sister” facility wasn’t very good and the acoustics made it incredibly loud. I saw many diners requesting to be moved to an outside table to get away from then noise.
