What guests think
At Hotel Della Fortezza, guests consistently praise the atmospheric 12th-century fortress setting with sweeping views over Sorano, the welcoming staff, and a quality breakfast, describing a memorable stay that emphasizes history, tranquility, and regional food and wine.
The hilltop location is quiet and well placed for visiting Pitigliano, Sovana, and Saturnia, though parking involves a short walk and arrival/navigation can be confusing until you follow the hotel’s instructions. Rooms are comfortable with character and views, but modern comforts are limited: air conditioning is generally absent, some found winter heating limited, and Wi‑Fi coverage is inconsistent in places. As a historic building, access includes stairs and uneven paths, which may challenge those with mobility needs. Expect a distinctive, experience-led stay rather than full modern luxury.

We loved our stay at the Fortezza. The views from our room were magnificent!! The town is lovely to stroll around and we had some delicious food at the restaurant the hotel recommended. I took a night time tour to some local caves that was very interesting I thought the drive up to drop off our luggage was pretty fun! Very steep with a couple tight turns. The free parking area is close enough to bring luggage from if you don’t want to drive the steep way. I did have a little trouble finding it. Breakfast was amazing!

Dieser Aufenthalt hat uns in jeder Hinsicht positiv überrascht. Bei unserer Reise Anfang Mai haben wir einen für uns versteckten Schatz, nicht überlaufen, viel zu bieten in Hinsicht auf super Bad für eine Burg, tolles Frühstück, Aussicht, Ruhe, Individualität und ausgesprochen engagiertes Personal mit tollen Freizeitangeboten, vorgefunden. Wir haben das E Bike genutzt, die in der Aktivity Rate enthaltene Wanderung gemacht, zu der wir gefahren wurden und einen einzigartigen mittelalterlichen Weinkeller besichtigen dürfen. Das ist nur ein Teil der angebotenen Möglichkeiten. Das Preis Leistungsverhältnis war dabei wirklich gut! Man kann am Tage gemütlich auf dem Burghof in der Sonne sitzen und wird mit frischen Getränken und Snacks verwöhnt. Alles in allem ein toller Aufenthalt. Dankeschön!

We stayed one night and were enchanted with the fortress turned hotel in the heart of Sorano. Our room had amazing views of the surrounding town, the breakfast had fantastic coffee and a wide assortment of meats, cheeses, breads, and pastries. The owners tour of the underground wine cellars and wine making process capped off with a tasting was informative and delicious.

Tolle Location in einer alten Festung. Verständlicherweise keine eigenen Parkplätze aber fussläufig - auch mit Gepäck erreichbar. Frühstück war sehr gut. Zimmer sehr romantisch aber leider ohne Klimaanlage. Ventilatoren wurden gestellt, waren aber eher laut und mussten ständig laufen. Leider hat sich das WLAN jeden Tag mehrmals verabschiedet. Es gibt einen Burghof mit Sitzmöglichkeiten aber z.B. keine Bar oder zumindest einen Automaten.

This is a fortress as the name of the hotel implies. The rooms are in the Fortress Orsini. There is a parking lot that's about a 3-5 minute walk to the hotel (depending on how close to the hotel you park) but beware of maps on the iPhone. It indicated that I had to walk a lot farther, but when I called the hotel, they explained that I only had to walk a few minutes. The room was decent but since I sent in November, it was cool. The room had a radiator but I was informed that it was turned on only a couple times a day. So the room was not comfortable. Sleeping wasn't a problem because if it's a little cool, one can still stay warm. However, after a very long walk down to the city and back, I cam back to the hotel and it was very cold. And even when the heat was turned on, there was only a trickle of heat coming from the radiator. Be aware of this if you are traveling there during cold weather.

An absolutely amazing location, wonderful hosts and incredible food. Stunning views from the room, clean bathroom. Fantastic wine tour and tasting, very clear instructions regarding parking. The only thing we’d change is a fan or some air con though we fully appreciate that might not be possible due to the historic nature of the building. It was a little too warm for us at night and we were reluctant to leave the windows open as there was a gap in a mosquito screen. This may not be an issue for others who are more used to the heat! Thank you for a most wonderful stay. Provided the perfect base to visit the Tuff towns. We will recommend to friends and family.

This place was interesting. I only stayed a night like cool a castle looking place, but when I arrived, I realized it was an entire experience. I would definitely go back just to explore all this place has to offer. I went during the rain, so I did find some beetles creeping in when I opened the window to see the view. So be aware if bugs spook you! Also, if you stay in room 3, the WiFi didn’t really reach to the bed. I had to leave my phone near the door in case someone had to call me. Which was fine. Breakfast was okay. But def would come back to explore.

Once in a lifetime experience to stay in an ancient fortress with views of a charming medieval village. Beds are comfy. Bathrooms clean and spacious. Staff is friendly and helpful. There is much to see nearby, including Pitigliano, Sovana and the thermal springs at Saturnia. Wished I had booked more days. Hotel della Fortezza is above the town, a short walk to eateries and other sights, so it is quiet at night, except for church bells. We thought the room, the view, the breakfast, and the convenient public parking made our visit to the area more special, which is something to say when you are touring Italy's best kept secret.

Breakfast was okay. But def would come back to explore.
This place was interesting. I only stayed a night like cool a castle looking place, but when I arrived, I realized it was an entire experience.

Once in a lifetime experience to stay in an ancient fortress with views of a charming medieval village. Beds are comfy. Bathrooms clean and spacious. Staff is friendly and helpful. There is much to see nearby, including Pitigliano, Sovana and the thermal springs at Saturnia. Wished I had booked more days. Hotel della Fortezza is above the town, a short walk to eateries and other sights, so it is quiet at night, except for church bells. We thought the room, the view, the breakfast, and the convenient public parking made our visit to the area more special, which is something to say when you are touring Italy's best kept secret.

An absolute surprise, a gem in the middle of nowhere it seemed, but in reality, close to many different towns, and things to do. I don't normally rate 5 stars, but from the excellent meet to leaving, the entire staff was perfect. A five star meal, cupped with 5 star service, can not praise this place enough. A must while in Sorrano. Thank you all for my stay.

Dieser Aufenthalt hat uns in jeder Hinsicht positiv überrascht. Bei unserer Reise Anfang Mai haben wir einen für uns versteckten Schatz, nicht überlaufen, viel zu bieten in Hinsicht auf super Bad für eine Burg, tolles Frühstück, Aussicht, Ruhe, Individualität und ausgesprochen engagiertes Personal mit tollen Freizeitangeboten, vorgefunden. Wir haben das E Bike genutzt, die in der Aktivity Rate enthaltene Wanderung gemacht, zu der wir gefahren wurden und einen einzigartigen mittelalterlichen Weinkeller besichtigen dürfen. Das ist nur ein Teil der angebotenen Möglichkeiten. Das Preis Leistungsverhältnis war dabei wirklich gut! Man kann am Tage gemütlich auf dem Burghof in der Sonne sitzen und wird mit frischen Getränken und Snacks verwöhnt. Alles in allem ein toller Aufenthalt. Dankeschön!

I was truly amazed by my stay at this magnificent and unique hotel near Pitigliano. The rooms, the service, and the place itself are outstanding—by far one of the best places I stayed at during my visit to the Tuscany region. The owner’s attention and hospitality are top-notch, a solid 10 out of 10. Highly recommended!

Llegar al hotel de la Fortezza es como entrar a un cuento. No solo por el paisaje de los alrededores sino por cada detalle en el cuidado de cada cosa. El servicio de las chicas que atienden en la recepción es impecable, el servicio de desayuno es extraordinario y la comodidad de las habitaciones también es destacable. Sin lugar a dudas lo recomendamos y volveremos con el resto de nuestra familia para que ellos también vivan esta experiencia única e inolvidable en uno de los pocos lugares históricos del mundo que aún quedan habitables. No se lo pierdan!!

Location
A dramatic hilltop fortress above Sorano offers sweeping views and a quiet atmosphere, with the village reachable on foot. It’s a convenient base for Pitigliano, Sovana, and Saturnia, though some found navigation and the parking approach a bit confusing.

We loved our stay at the Fortezza. The views from our room were magnificent!! The town is lovely to stroll around and we had some delicious food at the restaurant the hotel recommended. I took a night time tour to some local caves that was very interesting I thought the drive up to drop off our luggage was pretty fun! Very steep with a couple tight turns. The free parking area is close enough to bring luggage from if you don’t want to drive the steep way. I did have a little trouble finding it. Breakfast was amazing!

La nostra stanza non era grandissima, ma accogliente e con tutti i confort, inoltre aveva una finestra molto panoramica. Il personale è molto premuroso ed attento. La struttura è un edificio storico, una fortezza, che ha una posizione dominante sul borgo di Sorano. La colazione completa e soddisfacente. L'hotel offre anche interessanti attività in zona

This is a fortress as the name of the hotel implies. The rooms are in the Fortress Orsini. There is a parking lot that's about a 3-5 minute walk to the hotel (depending on how close to the hotel you park) but beware of maps on the iPhone. It indicated that I had to walk a lot farther, but when I called the hotel, they explained that I only had to walk a few minutes. The room was decent but since I sent in November, it was cool. The room had a radiator but I was informed that it was turned on only a couple times a day. So the room was not comfortable. Sleeping wasn't a problem because if it's a little cool, one can still stay warm. However, after a very long walk down to the city and back, I cam back to the hotel and it was very cold. And even when the heat was turned on, there was only a trickle of heat coming from the radiator. Be aware of this if you are traveling there during cold weather.

Gostei muito do Hotel, staff e local. Tivemos a oportunidade de adquirir um passeio a Vie Cave, que foi super interessante e recomendo. Não possui ar condicionado, o frigobar não gela adequadamente e a fechadura da porta do quarto é um pouco complicada de fechar: esses são os pontos fracos. Estacionamento público super próximo. O dono possui um restaurante muito gostoso próximo, vale a pena testar. Recomendo e retornaria ao hotel tranquilamente.

We stayed one night and were enchanted with the fortress turned hotel in the heart of Sorano. Our room had amazing views of the surrounding town, the breakfast had fantastic coffee and a wide assortment of meats, cheeses, breads, and pastries. The owners tour of the underground wine cellars and wine making process capped off with a tasting was informative and delicious.

Sorano was our final leg of journey to Tuscany in May 2026. It was our first experience staying in a hotel converted from medieval fortress! We cannot thank enough the hotel staff, Silvia, for providing us extremely detailed instructions and advice before and during the stay, and Bianca, for providing us a room upgrade (with magnificent view on the town below and the valley). The place itself, Sorano, is deeply rich with Etruscan history (caves, ancient roads, etc.) and is just 10 km from another medieval gem, Pitigliano. If you arrive by car, the free parking lot is conveniently located just outside the castle gates with 2 minutes' walk to the hotel itself. Highly recommend!!!
