Nestled among the waving Tuscan hills, Park Hotel Le Fonti is just ten minutes walk from the centre of Volterra, a small Etruscan jewel, overlooking the sea. Three thousands years ago, the Etruscans settled on this splendid hill, 550m. above the sea level, to grow their civilization: the Etruscan Gate is still one of the most imposing evidence, as well as the tombs and the cinerary urns of Guarnacci Museum. The Roman Theatre and the numerous churches and medieval buildings are the expression of a rich story and blooming civilization. Walking around the narrow streets, visitors can find traces of every historical period, giving the artistic city a unique aspect. Volterra, with its medieval atmosphere and majestic view, is one of the most visited places in Tuscany.Our centralized location provides easy access to the main Tuscan cities (one hour drive to Siena, Pisa, Florence, Lucca), international airports (Pisa and Florence) and beaches (only 40 minutes drive). As a Guest of Park Hotel Le Fonti, directly managed by the Owners, the Family Bessi, you will be pleased to savour the very essence of Tuscany: nature, art, culture, cuisine, cordiality.
