The bedding is adequate, offering good comfort for a night's sleep. The pools are well-maintained and pleasant. A shuttle service is available between the village and the hotel, which is convenient. The staff is attentive and friendly, with a special mention for Alessandro, who was available to accommodate all our requests. The food at the hotel restaurants is delicious. The overall atmosphere of the hotel is quiet and warm. The air conditioning doesn't work very well, which can make for uncomfortable nights. We expected the main hotel to be in a central location, but it's actually located in a village with many steps, which isn't practical with a baby and a dog. We had booked the spa for all days but only got a two-hour reservation out of our four-night stay, which was disappointing. Reservations are required for all restaurants, which limits flexibility. Breakfasts lack variety and are often unavailable after 9:30 a.m. The €50 per day dog package.

Small village surrounded by greenery, excellent location for long walks among vineyards. Well-kept village and wonderful rooms.

I had lunch, for the first time and alone, at Tenuta Artimino and it was very pleasant. Good food, good atmosphere, beautiful place immersed in history and above all excellent staff, able to make even my solitude beautiful. My pleasure for "good wine and good prosecco" was satisfied by the professionalism of Tissem, a wonderful and particularly prepared girl, able to convey the taste and aroma of all the nectars she held in her hands. Obviously, having said that - and believe me, that's not all - the advice is to go in person and see for yourself!
