It was an absolutely beautiful Villa. The owner was absolutely wonderful in helping me get settled in. Housekeeping was above par. Highly recommend!

It was difficult to find because the Main Street leading to it was temporarily closed The staff were very helpful

A beautiful, rustic Villa a few steps ( walk up the steps ) away from the town center. The have some excellent vegan, organic food and wine in their restaurant located at the town center. Above all, Enrique, I assume, the owner of the property, is a genuine personality with a warm smile and with lots of informed about Etruscan culture!
Overall, a best stay! Keep up the good work Enrique!

Enrico is a very helpful host, and we enjoyed the ambiance of the Villa.

Charming villa just outside the Etruscan gate to Volterra with lovely views to the west. Rooms are large and comfortable. Garden area where breakfast is served needs a bit of work but was pleasant enough.
4.0
Location was good, the room on the street side can be quite noisy until late at night, the only thing missing were tea coffee facilities in the room and tissue. Apart those few things the room was good, spacious and clean.
3.0
We stayed for one night. The room was fine but very basic. The fridge did not work, the lights flickered all of the time. They went out of their way to help us with parking. The breakfast was served in a little garden which was pleasant and the food was good. The hotel is vegan so only soy or almond milk for the coffee which we did not care for.
2.0
Location is very nice: it's an old villa with period furnishings. Basic comfort overall: no a/c in the room, only fan. Parking is limited, but there's a free parking in 100 mt.

My partner and I stayed for 3 nights. On arrival the hotel was closed and we had to call staff to check in. They said 10 minutes it was 25. Not too much of an issue, as it was a nice sunny day while we waited, but we had a long journey and were tired and hungry, so not ideal. The room we were given was on the ground floor right by the entrance. It was clean, but very dark and dingy. The road was also quite noisy. We were hoping for a room more similar to those photographed. The hotel is just a 5 min walk to the old town

My partner and I stayed for 3 nights, Thur-Sun, last week. This is definitely more of a B&B than a hotel and from our experience, 3 stars is rather generous. On arrival at 3:30pm the hotel was closed and we had to call staff to check in. We waited nearly 30mins. The room we were given was on the ground floor right by the entrance (no.24). It was clean, but rather dark and dingy. There were only 4 clothes hangers provided. The road was also quite noisy. The hotel is just a 5 min walk to the old town, which was excellent and there are plenty of places to eat. Although, you have to walk along the edge of a busy road and I would be wary if you have children. We also returned to the hotel at 10pm in complete darkness, which felt rather strange. In the mornings we were woken by people talking outside our room by the entrance and smoking by our window. Breakfast was fine, but rather basic. As the hotel began to fill for the weekend, parking became problematic, by Saturday we had to park a 10/15min walk down the steep hillside at a local supermarket. On Sunday, we were told to check out by 9am, however at 8:30 reception was still closed. We had to call staff back to the hotel again and had to wait over 20 minutes. It was rather stressful, as we had a flight to catch. So overall not a particularly relaxing stay at this hotel, but it was cheaper than other accommodation in the area. Volterra is an exceptionally beautiful town though and we enjoyed the area very much.

Close to we’re we were going. Free parking and gave us discount at a restaurant in town for dinner. Was cozy more b&b than hotel.

Beautiful place in a charming and very classic italian villa, cosy rooms and a nice patio. Excellent service from everyone, they helped us out with many things. Also just a very short walk from Volterra city centre. Absolutely recommend!

The location is better than indicated as although just outside the wall it is only 5 minutes from main square. The building is more of a large house than hotel which was fine for us. The reception is only staffed on checkout and checkin, to checkin had to wait 30 minutes in the heat and make several phone calls. The staff were friendly especially the breakfast staff and served very good coffee, on the downside breakfast day one expectable but more fruit on second day, room was cleaned each day.Would visit again especially if arriving by car although a car is not necessary as there is parking.

Family run business that also have a restaurant in the old town. The 10 procent discount we received as hotel guests for eating there was a only a bonus as the food and service here were phenomenal! If you eat here don't forget to try the wild boar! Located in an old Tuscan style house with garden patio just below the main arch to the old Town. There are some stairs up to the gate but they are farely easy to climb, not steep, low steps. Breakfast was very fresh, different assortments of cold cuts and bread with new baked pastries. Guests can eat their breakfast outside in their cosy garden. I'd definitely stay here again.

The staff was friendly and helpful! Our room over liooked the garden which was very peaceful and quite.
4.0
We only had 1 night in Volterra but found the hotel very good. Parking on site was a plus and it couldn’t have been closer to the old town. Just a short uphill walk to the town Gates. We had to leave early the next day so staff arranged early breakfast. Nice outdoor area for afternoon drinks.
4.0
Good location, right outside the town, short walk to the stairs. Room with a full and a twin. Twin was uncomfortable, like a pull out couch.

The small inn is fine. The service is excellent. We had a problem that was not their responsibility: a lemon of a rental car. The manager stepped in and deftly arranged for a tow truck, a free ride to Pisa and two options for a new rental. We left the car with him. You’d think we were regular guests, not one-night tourists.

While the hotel is away from Florence, an easy bus ride takes you to the downtown area. The hotel was comfortable and the staff was friendly. The breakfast was amazing. Views of Florence were beautiful. Would definitly stay there again.

Rocco was especially helpful and his mother was great at breakfsst
2.0
The place is clean and very well located but we had a room on the first floor were we could hear everything, the people coming inside the Villa, the people staying in the room upstairs, the trash truck picking up bottles really early in the morning, etc. It was really noisy so we couldn't sleep well. The room was adapted for someone who was disabled, so the bathroom can be a little uncomfortable because of the hight of the sink and the toilet, but it wasn't really a problem and it can be good for someone who needs it.
2.5
Perfect from beginning to end. Rocco will go above and beyond to ensure a great stay. Charming and quiet hotel that feels like home!!
2.5
A nice small hotel across the street (a very busy street!) leading to the steep steps up to the main square of Volterra. An absolutely beautiful midieval/renaissance town frozen in time, to the advantage of all of us tourists. The town is not touristy! The hotel served a delicious full breakfast, with eggs and croissants, etc. Recommended!
2.0
Good value for the cost. Loggo at front desk is a great, hospitable guy. Room was solid and clean, breakfast was good. Location just outside the front gate however you have to be careful walking along the road.

The hotel is a short, steep climb outside of Volterra with parking & is ideal for those touring the area.

villa set in a peaceful lovely garden, Host just elegant and CHARMING. Perfect for Volterra--2 minute walk to the Etruscan gate, just SO convenient.

Villa Porto All'Arco is an old villa that's been converted to a small hotel. Don't come if you're looking for modern amenities. This is more of a trip back in time. You get tall ceilings and original floors from hundreds of years ago. The owners are incredibly nice and helpful. And they serve a great breakfast. Two minor demerits. First, the address didn't show up on our GPS so it was a little difficult to find. Second, it's a five minute walk from the hotel to the main piazza of Volterra. So you'll need to walk to shop, sightsee, or have dinner. But it's a fair trade-off for a large, more open room.

Loved our hotel stay and the owner Antonelli was like family----so friendly and helpful with suggestions for places to visit nearby.

Nice charming hotel converted from some sort of mansion. Big rooms with tall ceilings, clean and comfortable. Very pleasant views of the valley below Volterra. Only letdown was the breakfast, which had very tepid coffee and very basic quality food.
