- What awaits you at the reopening of the Hotel della Fortezza?
Hey travelers! Now is the right time to ditch your favorite series or history documentary and start experiencing the wintry atmosphere of a 12th century fortress in person!
Want to find out a few more details?
Hotel Fortezza has opened its doors during the months of January and February, inviting you to experience history instead of following it from your home screen, in fact, for the first time, our facility will also be open on winter weekends!
Are you curious to know what we have planned?
We know that the winter season can be a somewhat less inviting time to travel. But don’t worry, the Fortress Hotel has thought of everything! Despite the cold weather, we have a number of activities planned for our guests so you can make the most of your stay, even in winter.
Here are three tips on what to do in Sorano in the winter months:
1. If you are an explorer, you can’t miss the three tuff cities-Pitigliano, Sovana and Sorano-three medieval towns set on tuff cliffs. These towns are known for their uniqueness and charm, and are a must-see attraction for lovers of history, nature and adventure. Even just walking through the alleys of the three villages will take you back in time…. We also recommend you go to discover the ancient Etruscan routes in the Vie Cave, set in the tuffaceous rock. A journey through time that will make you feel part of a forgotten era!
PS: Between one path and another, let yourself be delighted by the gastronomic excellence of Maremma, ask us for your perfect picnic and do not miss the gastronomic delicacies of our EnoRistrò, we use only seasonal raw materials that come from small local producers, real KM0 culinary masterpieces!
2. You may not yet know that beneath the 12th-century Fortress Hotel is a historic wine cellar with a 90-meter-deep gorge. This cellar, which has been renovated in recent years, is a real hidden treasure and is unique! The winery can be visited, exclusively for guests of the fortress, with a guided tour that will show you the ancient tunnels and cisterns that have been used for centuries for wine production. At the end of the visit, you can taste two glasses of wine in our tasting room paired with oil wine and cheese… all KM0 of course!
3. The last piece of advice is to visit the natural spas of South Tuscany, and first of all the Saturnia Spa, winter is the perfect time! The lower temperatures, in fact, make the experience even more enjoyable. You may be interested to know that we also have thermal baths in Sorano and they are fed by calcium-magnesium water springs at 37°, the facility is private and will reopen in March, while the Terme di Saturnia, spring free from sulfur springs, have a temperature of 37.5 °C and are famous for their history and healing properties!
And to make your stay even more unforgettable, we have a special offer you can’t miss!
