The verdict
Locanda Della Taverna Etrusca and ostello ortensi neck and neck
7,3 versus 7,1: the gap is too small to separate them on the overall rating. The choice comes down to the criteria that matter to you, below.
Choose Locanda Della Taverna Etrusca if…
- you prioritise emplacement (8,3 vs 6,9) : On the Piazza del Pretorio, in the heart of Sovana, a few steps from the historic center and the cathedral; Pitigliano is close by car.
- you prioritise intégration dans l'environnement (7,4 vs 6,7) : Locanda set in the medieval village of Sovana, on the Piazza del Pretorio, in the heart of the historic center; the old architecture is not described further.
- you care about climatisation: the only listing in the head-to-head to mention it
- you trust travellers: 8,8/10 from 0 reviews, the best rating in the head-to-head
Its weak point in this head-to-head: rapport qualité/prix (6,2). Price not specified: impossible to judge what the stay costs compared to the advertised amenities (breakfast, parking, Wi-Fi, restaurant).
Choose ostello ortensi if…
- you prioritise rapport qualité/prix (7,2 vs 6,2) : At €80 per night with buffet breakfast, Wi-Fi and free parking, the offer remains consistent for a two-star inn with 8 rooms.
Its weak point in this head-to-head: emplacement (6,9). In the heart of the village of Farnese, within walking distance of shops, but the Saturnia thermal baths are 34 km away and Pitigliano 22 km away.

Tosco's word
On price, only Ostello Ortensi publishes its rates: 80 € a night, with breakfast, Wi-Fi and parking included, a score of 7.1 and 302 reviews at 8.6/10. La Locanda Della Taverna Etrusca earns its 8.3 for location in the heart of Sovana, but since its price isn't specified, it's impossible to know whether it's more expensive or not. If you want a controlled budget and plenty of reviews, take the ostello; if you want to sleep on Piazza del Pretorio, the locanda is the more appealing choice.
