Me and my partner booked for 3 nights and ended up extending our stay, the location is incredible and the building we stayed in was beautiful. Stand out features were the pool which was crystal clear and my personal favourite as someone who enjoys cooking was the kitchen which was very well equipped and with a view of the garden. We would definitely stay here again P.s give Luca and Angelica a pat from us

READ BEFORE BOOKING!! WARNING!! I only gave one star because hostelworld will not let you leave a review with 0 stars, but this was a 0 star experience. I dont know if this property has shifted in management or if something else is going on. We read reviews and saw the photos on Hostelworld and were SO excited to stay here. We stayed two nights. It was an AWFUL experience. My friends and I are very outdoorsy and have spent many, many nights in rough conditions. I would have 100% preferre...

Bassetto has one of the most lovely vibes I ever experienced before, I met wonderful people there & made unforgettable memories. Love the pool, the events they constantly host & the country Tuscany side. Staff were super friendly & helpful, the train station is just like 25 minutes by walking where you can go to visit Florence 50 minutes away, Pisa, Siena & San Gimignano. Will definitely come back, Grazie Mille Bassetto!

The photos don't even do this place justice, it is 100% the most beautiful hostel I have ever been to. Theres this amazing award winning bar less than a minute away with the best Aperol I've ever had! The kitchens are beautiful and the surrounding area is a perfect taste of Tuscany. The staff were amazing, taking us to beer festivals, beautiful waterfalls and making us pasta at 3am! If you can, you should defiantly stay here!!

Ok I have a lot to say. I loved the culture of Bassetto. If you're tired of the city and want a getaway in Tuscany this is the place. It's small and intimate and the volunteers are AWESOME. The pool is great and walking around the vineyard area is lovely. Also the bar next door is PHENOMENAL. HOWEVER. There are lots of mosquitoes so bring bug spray. There is not air conditioning and few fans. Bathrooms are nice and there are multiple kitchens. It's about 30 minutes from the train station and i...

Sehr authentische Unterkunft, definitiv das spannendste Hostel, das ich entdecken durfte, ganz besonderer Flair, gute Gewürzausstattung in der Küche, sehr schöne Küchen generell, Vögel fliegen durchs Haus, deshalb Hygiene etwas fragwürdig, aber mich hat es nicht gestört, denn in den Zimmern und der Küche sind keine Nester

There is no one at the reception for check in or check out at any time during our stay. No one assisted us during our stay for any activities eventhough we had 7 people that were interested while the manager and staff were busy partying or sleeping till 3 or 4 pm. They had a BBQ and left their mess until late next day, same in the kitchen areas. We couldn't use the main kitchen because the staffs were using it. Also they kept insisting we pay cash cause the machine is "broken". Please avoid.

这个酒店虽然员工很友善,但是说实话设施确实不怎么行,酒店的装修很老旧,甚至有点残破,床铺没有自己的锁,行李就随意摆放在底下,然后整个房间也很老旧,不好走要走二十多分钟才到火车站,如果你要去佛罗伦萨市区,我不建议预订这个酒店,不过你如果只是在附近转转,我推荐你预订,不过还是有些贵40块钱一晚

I absolutely loved my stay here. I was here for 10 nights which went by so quickly as i enjoyed it so much! The volunteers were super friendly and inviting and always there when we needed them. I highly recommend signing up for the activities/trips the staff plan. They were always worth it and a great way to meet the other guests. The house and property was gorgeous. I loved spending hot days at the pool and exploring the nearby properties. I miss it and I will be back!

This is a really lovely and unique hostel, and I can imagine how fun the vibe is when there are more people staying here in peak season. It’s super homey and I would definitely recommend. The only issue that we had was the external events that took place in the main building, which were basically like a club night and it was noisy until past 1am. I think this is the first time they have had external bookings and I hope they will be more respectful of the paying guests in the future.

Hosts and volunteers were wonderful people, I apologise in advance for this review. Bassetto is not promoted as a party hostel,yet,there were 3 private parties on(not for guests)and this was not communicated to me at all. Very much ruined the vibe of my stay and my sleep!I paid €15 for dinner at 8pm, but they were still cooking and got it served by after 10pm!Hostel is also so far away, and dont promote shuttles or bikes to make the walk to station quicker (you had to pre book).Bad communicati...

I was looking for exactly that kind of guesthouse - in the greens, far from big cities and places, with nice people ready to help and very particular atmosphere - ancient but modern, easy but with experience.. it’s a place where you want to come back becouse it’s special and unique, different from others.

Nice typical Tuscany countryside house with a special flair. The property is 30 minute walking distance from the town center/railway station and is therefore very quiet, surrounded by a lovely green area. If you need a place with a bit of history and personality, Bassetto is the the place to be! Very simple furniture in the room but the common area is lovely and really large. The staff is very helpful and always available, they do everything to make your stay unforgettable. They also organize ex...

If you’re traveling in the area, don’t miss out on this place!! It had been years since I stayed at a hostel, and clearly they have moved way up in the world since my time. The staff are super friendly and the vibe is warm and loving. A real safe harbor in a storm. Very clean too. Thanks so much. 🙏🏻

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the enchanting Fattoria Bassetto, & I can't recommend it highly enough! Nestled in the rolling hills of Tuscany, this villa offers the perfect blend of rustic charm & modern comfort. Our room was spacious & elegantly decorated. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring restful nights after a day of exploring. The ensuite bathroom was modern & our room had its on fridge. Certaldo Alto is worth a visit. BYO mozzie spray!
