Castiglion del Bosco, A Rosewood Hotel

Rosewood Castiglion Del Bosco is an exceptional hotel offering a stunning view of Val d'Orcia, a beautiful valley in Tuscany. The picturesque surroundings provide a truly memorable experience for guests seeking a peaceful retreat. The hotel's ambiance and service are top-notch, creating a luxurious and comfortable stay. One minor drawback that I encountered during my visit in the winter was that the temperature of the indoor pool was not as warm as I would have preferred. While the pool area is undoubtedly lovely, it would have been more enjoyable with a higher water temperature, especially during the colder months. Overall, Rosewood Castiglion Del Bosco is a fantastic choice for those looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of Tuscany and indulge in a luxurious hotel experience. The breathtaking views and impeccable service make it a truly remarkable destination worth visiting.

This is one of the best hotels i have ever been! Property is spectacular, rooms are superb, service is the best!! The hotel has everything one needs! Infinity pool with the tuscan view and food were the best of the property!! Suggest to stay at the property and enjoy the hotel without going anywhere else.

We had a fantastic experience at the Rosewood property at Montelcino. The views from the property are just magical. We found our suite most luxurious and well done with a small romantic outdoor area and garden The housekeeping made our stay special by doing up a rose petal bath up and left us most beautiful personalise messages each night. The in house resteraunts were phenomenal and gave us vegetarians plenty of options. Lastly the men and women who work here are truly special. They made our 25th Anniversary celebrations an event we shall hold special for years to come. Am so happy to have chosen Rosewood Tuscany to celebrate our milestone anniversary.

We really enjoyed our time here. They had a lovely Christmas decoration and it’s a really nice property. Very well taken care off even during winter time. Service was outstanding and the food superb. The kids had a lovely time with Santa and really enjoyed the ice skating.

Fantastic enough hotel to revisit this April and December after last year's visit. The room condition is superb as well as a nice Tuscany view. All the staff are friendly and professional. Everything is perfect.

Amazing experience. Expectations exceeded at every level. Impeccable, personalized service and gorgeous, luxurious accommodations. Unsurpassed attention to detail. Breathtaking panoramas. All employees project authentic kindness and warmth. I look forward to my return.

My wife and I stayed at Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco for a week during Thanksgiving, and it was one of the best travel experiences we've ever had. The resort itself is beautiful, occupying the entirety of a small village at the top of a hill. The buildings have been incredibly well-preserved, and the rooms strike the perfect mix of rustic and luxurious, with modern amenities and comforts. (They are also very big.) The setting is remote - it takes about 15 minutes of driving down gravel roads just to get off the property - but that is part of CdB's charm. And in all events, there is plenty to do on the property; we never once felt isolated or bored. The food and beverage program at CdB is outstanding and among the best in the world. There are two restaurants on the property, one more elevated (Campo del Drago) and one more casual (Osteria la Canonica). That said, "casual" is somewhat of an unfair description; though it is more casual than Campo del Drago, which has two (very well-deserved) Michelin stars and incredible multi-course tasting menus, Osteria la Canonica serves some of the best pasta we have ever had, with locally-sourced, seasonal ingredients. There is also a wonderful lobby bar, with a massive selection of liquors and cocktails, both classic and unique to CdB. (There is even a list of cocktails that showcase Tuscan ingredients and fruits and vegetables from CdB's own garden; these were extremely inventive and absolutely worth sampling.) Eating and drinking are clearly important activities at CdB. In addition to the restaurants and bars, there is also a winery on-site. We had a great tour (thanks Francesco!) and got to sample some of the best Brunellos we've ever had. CdB also offers cooking classes (pizzas, pastries, pastas, etc.). We did a couple of these, and they were truly one of the highlights of our trip. Our teacher, Erasmo, gave us some great recipes and tips, but more importantly, created a really fun experience. If you're not into cooking or wine (or just need a way to burn off all those calories!), there are many other things to do on and off the property - a bike tour of the surrounding area, tours of nearby towns and cities (we did Siena, which was spectacular), truffle hunting (thanks to our guides, Giovanni and Alessandro, and our "hunter," Brio!), swimming (in a pool with one of the most beautiful views in all of Italy), hiking, and more. The nice thing about CdB is is has something for everyone. If you want to spend your time relaxing, eating decadent food and drinking wine and living that "far niente" lifestyle, you can do that. If you want to spend your time outside, hiking, biking, walking, playing bocce, etc., or fill your day with activities, you can do that too. All that said, perhaps the most impressive aspect of CdB is its wonderful staff. I don't know whether it's an Italian thing, a Tuscan thing, a Rosewood thing, or a CdB thing, but the staff at CdB was unfailingly kind and helpful. Special thanks to Erasmo, who taught our cooking class, the guys at the lobby bar (Geremia, Tommaso, Vito) and the lovely folks at Osteria la Canonica and Campo del Drago (Chiara, Mikal). While I mention a few names specifically, every member of staff was incredible, and they are perhaps the biggest reason why we intend to return to this wonderful place soon.

This is for sure the best of best! The entire resort is very well maintained and so welcoming. We were well taken care of by the team and our dog spent a great for her birthday.

Well there is. As a couple with the same sex you would expect the hotel to well acknowledge this before they have the room ready for us. However this is not the case when you see two laundry bags as “one for him and the other for her” as usual, and the flip-flops in the bathroom as well.

There is one word I would use to describe the Rosewood; perfection! This resort has old world charm with amenities and accommodations that are superior to anything else that my husband and I have ever experienced. From the room, to the staff, to the food, to the spa to the restaurant and bar we were overly impressed. We were provided a number at check which could have been used for requests. Requests as small as a tea bag were made and not one minute later, tea was delivered with honey! Alicia who originally greeted us into the resort was exceptional! She consistently checked to see if anything was needed and was accommodating beyond measure. My husband and I are already booking our trip for next year and extending our stay to four evenings! Thank you again for making our trip so memorable.
