Clean, cozy hotel in the heart of Chianti. Beatiful house with beatiful architecture. Beatiful, green and full of nature place. Restaurant serves perfect dinners. Especially meats - it’s a really food-experience. Also great wines from local wineries. Prices in restaurant are little higher than in towns around in Chianti but this is really great food with really great service so I think this 2-4 EUR per dish is not a big problem. Breakfast very good. Great coffee and I think everyone could find something. Nice swimming pool.

Rooms could be little bigger but you are not in Tuscany to stay in the room so it’s not a real problem. Please notice that without car you can’t do anything in this area - even nearest town is too far by walk (especially in the summer).

Ultimo Mulino is a four star hotel in the vicinity of Gaiole in Chianti. With such ranking, the expectations were high and I must say, I was still pleasantly surprised. The hotel is in a former mill which was painstakingly rebuilt and then enlarged. While rebuilding, the architects were true to original building style, so you have a feeling that you're living in the original house. The room was nice, everything was clean, the bed was great, pillows were fine, there was an extra blanket for my wife. The room had a direct entrance also from the terrace, which then led to the swimming pool. I really liked that everything was connected from all the sides. The staff was fantastic, we immediately connected with the receptionist, who was very nice, funny and spoke great English. He advised us on local wines and gave us all sorts of useful information for further exploration of Tuscan region. Since the hotel is far from any village (you have to drive either to Radda or Gaiole), we had a dinner in the hotel's restaurant and the food from the local menu was really good. All in all - a great stay in this beautiful hotel with great staff.

The facility is lost in the Chianti hills, away from the main roads and it is perfect for a relaxing holiday. With a ten minutes drive, you can reach a couple of towns close by with food and entertainment options. The room had everything we needed and also a little patio with a table and chairs, which was nice to have for a DIY meal. The breakfast on the terrace was always pleasant with both sweet and savoury options. The pool was nice as well, with plenty of sunbeds both in sun and shade.

Our room was the only room that could become a family room and we could hear our neighbours' TV and conversations at night.

The property is beautiful both inside and out. It is 5 to 10 minutes outside of a beautiful little town called Radda in the middle of Tuscany. It makes a great base for day trips all around Tuscany. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was Buffet style, but it was fantastic. The property is beautiful and tranquil. You can throw a stone in any direction and easily hit a 1/2 dozen wineries. Plan them out or for the more adventurous, pick a direction see what you discovery. You won’t be disappointed! Florence, Montepulciano, Siena, Piza and other wonderful places are and easy drive.

As you were likely to find an Italy, many of the rooms do not have AC. The staff was able to scrounge up a fan for us, which was perfect. My only slight complaint, was that 11 months in advance I requested a secluded porch. Unfortunately, our porch had both, the pumps for the pool up, as well as a small building that was used as a large linen closet. Every night around 1:00 am, (I’m usually up) a fella came in an out of that building. I must give him props, he was as quiet as he possibly could be, which I appreciated, but I wish the had honored my request for a more private veranda / porch. Don’t hesitate to stay at go La Ultimo. You will love it, just don’t stay in room 3!

A cosy, idyllic little country hotel located in a forest between Radda and Gaiole in Chianti. Very quiet and private, an ideal location for those seeking peace and relax. The staff were all fantastic, extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms were cleaned and the sheets were changed daily. Very good breakfasts with delicious freshly baked cakes, and the dinners in the restaurant were outstanding. We stayed there for 12 days and found it a perfect base for touring the Chianti Region, with Siena, Florence or San Gimignano under an hour's drive.

Lovely spread at breakfast with coffees made to order and selection of milks etc. Beautiful grounds and we stayed in the refurbished side of the property, near the pool. Location was stunning with rolling vineyards for miles! Staff were lovely and accommodating, classic Tuscan menu at dinner with exceptional food and a daily changing menu.

Split across 2 sites that you have to drive between ( only a 5 minute drive) but something to not for dinner / breakfast etc.

My wife and I spent 4 wonderful days at Ultimo Mulino. The country hotel is nestled in a beautiful forested valley in the Chianti region. The charm of the hotel was undeniable and the comfort and cleanliness was well above average. We particularly loved the pool, sauna and jacuzzi, which were excellent for relaxing after a busy day of exploring the area and driving through zigzagging roads. The restaurant on the premises was very convenient and served great Tuscan food. We would have stayed longer if we had more time. We will definitely be back should we visit the area again.

Location, surroundings (view while having breakfast), staff friendliness, pool, facilities, easy parking, low price compared to other similar hotels

The room was extremely dark (this is the main thing I didn’t like about our stay), our towels weren’t changed the first day as we had left them in the sink instead of on the floor (but then we asked the receptionist and she gave us new ones), the breakfast wasn’t as good as I expected in terms of reduced selection (but the food was definitely of good quality)

We absolutely loved the relaxing setting and atmosphere of this hotel. It is extremely picturesque and a lot of the older features of the property make for a stunning backdrop to evening meals and poolside sunbathing! The staff were very friendly and made us feel extremely welcome, and the food at the restaurant in the evening was absolutely outstanding! Breakfast was also to a high standard and the coffee is wonderful.

We thought there could have been more areas to sit and have a drink during the late afternoon into early evening, and we feel a more equipped and staffed bar before dinner would be beneficial to this hotel. We also stayed in Room 2 which was right next to the main stairwell to the hotel and could at times be a little noisy.

Fantastic location - so beautiful. The staff were so friendly and personable as the hotel is small and they got to know us. Justine and Alessio were very helpful in recommending local spots to visit that were less touristy. We also loved the spa bath in the room too - so relaxing. We also got a discount from the hotel to the local spa 5km away in Radda in Chianti - that was a fabulous experience and we highly recommend it.

When we booked, we didn't realise how far out the hotel was and how poor public transport was there. You really need to rent a car to get the full benefits of visiting the area and the shuttle to the hotel from Florence was also more expensive than renting the car. Despite this minor point, we absolutely loved our stay and would highly recommend it. We would love to come back again!
