Guest Houses in Fosdinovo

You have to take this place for what it is. It is not a luxury hotel; facilities are quite simple (like a pretty chilly bathroom without heating), and there are plenty of staircases to climb. But it is an absolutely adorable medieval castle, towering over a little village up in the hills, with amazing views and fantastic staff. The location is great for a little get-away and to experience northern Tuscany. Winding roads leading up to a cute village on a hill (depending on GPS system, your map can put you on a road with lots of hair-pin curves but decent width to meet cars, or a more straight road where meeting traffic becomes a nervous challenge). The village of Fosdinovo also has a great restaurant, the Quinta Terra. Very friendly staff and great atmosphere among stone vaults. Excellent country-side food that would easily compete with many of the better restaurants in Florence. The castle is a fantastic experience in Italian history and it's great to be able to freely walk around among its many rooms and up on its impressive fortification walls - daytime or nighttime. Sitting on one of the (shared) terraces for our own little "aperitif moment" was great. Our room was of good size, with a comfortable bed and a large radiator that gave a cozy warmth to the room in chilly April nights. The bathroom was as large as the room, simple but fully adequate for our needs. No heating there, so mornings were "fresh" :-) Ambra and her colleagues in the staff are just amazing! So welcoming, helpful and friendly. From Ambra's warm greeting, support, and guidance, to one of the other ladies who, off-hours and from her own apartment, shouted instructions for us which key to use when we clearly didn't manage to get in at night! :-) They all made us feel like family. They also served a delicious, home-cooked breakfast, with yoghurt, spreads, toast, ham and cheese, and home-baked apricot pie.

This place is more than perfect. It’s really difficult to find a hotel like this!! I’m Japanese so I’m a bit gemo fobia, But here is Sooo clean and gorgeous, you will find all amenities witch is rare in Italy, Everything is with high quality, Even you’ll have a fridge in the room! The room is well decorated with gorgeous furnitures……. I felt like a Countess🤩 you’ll have also Netflix. I enjoyed couch potate as well. Located the center of historical city, so it’s really convenient. Raffaella is super nice and generous and treat this place really nicely. Definitely I’ll come back!!!

Both the owners and the property are great!

The host was exceptional, nothing was too much. Lovely bathroom and kitchen. Good sized bedroom with air conditioning. Location a little out of the way but compensated with free to use bicycles (20 minute cycle to town,15 minute cycle to the station and marina) and a pizzeria and mini shop only 5 minute walk. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

The appartement was clean and modern. The host is excellent!

Lovely host, really helpful. Clean property and definitely good value for money. Especially good for travelers. Although the town it is located in is small, there are good restaurants nearby. We went to Mamas pizza and it was amazing.

Staying in the heart of such a beautiful town in a building steeped in incredible history!

We were waited by the owner when we arrived and we felt like we were arriving in a family we knew for years! The house is very warm, it's a great place to discover the Italian culture, to relax in the garden watching the view and the beautiful flowers! The rooms are big and luxurious, cleanliness 10/10. The breakfast is very varied and homemade. They even used the products directly out of their garden. The lady is very kind and attentive! There are no words to describe how magical it is, you have to come and live it!

The property with all the facilities, beautiful garden and nice host who is 24-hour in touch for all questions. The location is picturesque, it’s about 20-30 min of ride to popular views of Cinque Terre

Perfect place for a short stay with lovely and very welcoming host. Room was small but very clean and it had separate access to the garden. Nice and quiet area.
