Tosco's word
Hotel Della Fortezza holds up well on setting: it occupies the Orsini Fortress in Sorano, with a score of 8.7 for integration into its surroundings and a location rating of 7.8, ideal if heritage and the Saturnia thermal baths matter to you. But at 233 € a night, the value-for-money rating caps at 6.6, while La Fratta, at 176 €, offers an outdoor pool, air conditioning and a traveler rating of 9.4 from 17 reviews, with a Note Toscane Cachée of 7.1 versus 7.8 for the first. If you're traveling as a couple on a tight budget and want a pool, La Fratta is the most sensible choice; if you want to sleep in a fortress and the price doesn't bother you, Della Fortezza.
