Roffia Hotels from S$109

"If you enjoy peace, tranquillity, the Italian countryside, and an ethos that embraces sustainability (without any compromise on a luxury experience) then this is your spirit home away from home. The facility and surrounding countryside is stunning. The staff are exceptional, friendly and knowledgeable about the produce and the experience on offer. The food was outstanding in both the restaurants, and the fact that all produce used in the restaurants is sourced from no more than 20 miles away (although most is self produced on the property) is testament to the outstanding chefs working there. The pool was beautiful, the rooms were luxurious without being over the top. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the shower was great and the whole complex was always spotlessly clean. I cannot speak highly enough about this little piece of heaven on earth. If you like partying this isn’t the place for you. But if you are looking for a place to wind down and enjoy the peace and some beautiful food, then you won’t be able to help but love it here. "

"A Tuscan Gem with Unmatched Hospitality We had a wonderful stay at Villa I Barronci Resort & Spa! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome with their warm and attentive service. Our rooms were spotless and well-maintained, providing a comfortable retreat after a day of exploring. We also had a fantastic dinner at the resort. The food was absolutely delicious and a true highlight of our visit. While there was some construction taking place during our stay, it truly didn't take away from the natural beauty of the grounds. The resort is situated in the perfect location for visiting Tuscany’s most scenic spots, and the nearby town of San Casciano in Val di Pesa is such a quaint, lovely place to walk around. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a beautiful and welcoming base in the heart of Chianti! "

"Mormoraia is nothing short of perfect! Breathtaking views, AMAZING staff and excellent food. You will lose yourself in the beauty and complete relaxation! There are plenty of activities available if you choose to be active. Just an absolutely incredible place! We will 100% be back! "

"Below expectations for the price – nice location but disappointing experience We stayed for three nights in early April as a couple. During the same trip, we stayed in other agriturismos in a similar price range, and this one unfortunately did not compare well in terms of value and overall experience. The location near San Gimignano is very nice, with pleasant countryside views. However, the service and overall guest experience felt quite limited. Key issues: • Breakfast (€20 pp): limited and inconsistent selection (e.g. stale croissants, very basic fruit unless requested, no plain yogurt, eggs gone cold) • Short breakfast window (until 10:00), creating a rush with slow replenishment • Staff appeared very stretched, resulting in a lack of welcome and a tense atmosphere • Accommodation: annex building requires driving to the main property for meals; not very convenient • Kitchen available but guests asked not to use it • Dinner: fixed menu with no choice; food was good but simple; service felt canteen-like and not particularly atmospheric • Other points: • Pool remained covered despite warm weather • No takeaway breakfast offered for early departure (despite we paid for it) • Complimentary wine (Expedia Gold benefit) only offered at check-out, hence not able to enjoy it) Positives: • Nice setting and views • Comfortable bed • Good house wine Overall: While the property itself is pleasant, it felt more like the hotel prioritise their convenience.

"This place is amazing. "

"Beyond the eye catching art design of the place (both inside and out) the rooms were very nice, and the breakfast buffet was exactly what I was hoping for. I highly recommend if you need quick access to/ from the airport."

"If all you’re doing is looking for a 1 night place near the airport, then go for it. But not for anything more than that. Shower didn’t drain, missing fridge, cabinet door hanging off the frame, horrible smell in room 706, rusted sink, very very dated, but the staff was friendly though both at check in and when I needed a taxi. Was there 12 hours, never again. "

"Very close to airport. Good for a quick stay before catching a flight. Had a very nice breakfast series and friendly welcoming front desk agents. "

"The check-in reception staff were excellent—efficient, welcoming, and professional, setting a strong first impression. Unfortunately, the breakfast experience fell significantly short. The staff appeared stressed, disengaged, and at times discourteous. The buffet was closed approximately 10 minutes before the stated closing time, which was both unexpected and inconvenient. On a Sunday, when breakfast was scheduled until 11:00am, an elderly guest seated at 10:46am was abruptly told, “it’s all closed.” Similar interactions with other guests reflected a lack of attentiveness and basic hospitality. The overall quality of the breakfast was below average, and the service experience reinforced the impression that guests were more of an inconvenience than a priority. Even simple requests—such as asking for paper napkins—required repeated follow-ups and long waiting times. Additionally, the absence of soap/ shower gel in the bathroom was a basic oversight that just adds to annoyance. The room itself was acceptable—clean, but nothing great. The thermostat was funny or a dummy, I am not too sure. Overall, while the reception team performed well, the poor breakfast service and lack of attention to detail significantly impacted the stay. Based on this experience, I would recommend choosing a Hilton Hotels or Marriott Hotels property instead. The service standards and overall experience here have unfortunately left a lasting negative impression of the Novotel. #NeverAgain "
