Guest Reviews
Location
Visitors find the location convenient for reaching both the beaches and restaurants, making it an excellent base for a varied holiday. The hotel is well-placed for touring around Tuscany, providing a convenient and accessible spot with ample parking. Despite some occasional noise from the nearby railway and highway, many guests do not find it overly disturbing. However, some note that the location may pose challenges for those without a car, as it is somewhat detached from nearby amenities and requires a car for easy travel.
Overall, the setting is romantic and quiet, making it ideal for a relaxing retreat while being close enough to the road and sea for easy day trips and exploration, making it a great choice for an immersive Tuscany experience.
Breakfast
On the downside, several guests expressed dissatisfaction with the limited and basic nature of the breakfast, mentioning cold scrambled eggs, old sliced bread and a vending machine for coffee. There were also remarks on the breakfast not meeting the expectations of a 4-star hotel due to its simplicity and the quality of some items. Furthermore, the breakfast hours were considered a bit restrictive and some found the service from breakfast staff unpleasant.
In summary, while the setting and certain aspects of the breakfast at Hotel Fontermosa received praise, there is room for improvement in variety, quality and service to better align with guest expectations for a 4-star establishment.
Dinner
Key elements that guests appreciate include the attentive and good service from dinner waiters and the attention to special dietary needs, such as gluten-free options, which showed thoughtful consideration. The restaurant offers a variety of well-prepared and beautifully served dishes, contributing to an overall excellent dining experience.
However, a few guests pointed out some areas for improvement. Some felt the dinner menu could be better and noted discrepancies in value for money. There have also been occasional criticisms regarding certain meals.
Overall, the general consensus points to the restaurant as a very good component of the Hotel Fontermosa experience with many guests walking away satisfied with the quality and service of their dinner.
Rooms
Despite the positive remarks, some guests noted areas for improvement. The rooms, while clean, do not always meet the expected 4-star standard and can appear dated or small, particularly the standard and superior categories. Certain issues, such as outdated bathrooms, small room sizes and occasional maintenance concerns, including unclean air filters and strange smells, were highlighted. However, the triple rooms were seen as a step up in terms of comfort and space.
The hotel structure itself is beautiful, though it would benefit from renovation to truly shine. The hospitality services are commendable, adding to the overall positive experience. For those who value cleanliness, comfortable beds and a peaceful environment, Hotel Fontermosa's rooms generally deliver, despite a few areas needing attention.

Specific complaints include dirty towels, dusty bathrooms and a generally dirtier pool area. The facility itself was sometimes seen as not as tidy and well-maintained as it could be with some small flaws in cleaning practices reported.
In summary, while many find Hotel Fontermosa to be clean and welcoming, there's a clear indication that some improvements in housekeeping standards could enhance guest satisfaction.
