San Gimignano

We love Tuscany but of the 5 places we stayed this was definitely the worst and the room was just OK - The arrival procedure was bizarre ( go to tobacco shop for a key) and the lady who checked us in seemed annoyed rather than welcoming!! However ‘location,location ‘ means people will always be willing to stay as the area is gorgeous!

The room was clean as well as the breakfast area. The host was very accommodating, even driving us to our vehicle after we checked out (parking is outside the city wall). The pillows were not the best. We had a non-smoking room but in certain areas you could smell smoke. All in all, the location was good and we enjoyed our stay.

Nice local spot in San Gimignano

I was passing through San Gimignano as part of my walk on the Via Francigena. The hostess was very nice to let me check in early. The hotel is upstairs in an older building, one block over from a busy tourist street. The hotel had real local flavor and was very clean and quiet.

Thank you Vanna - Excellent!

Highly recommended, convenient to parking P1. Vanna was an exceptional hostess. Everything was ready, celan and no issues at all. She went extra by helping us get a great reservation (window table with spectacular view) at a wonderful restaurant. Breakfast was timely and yummy!

Lots of dark stairs 41 to be exact

41 very dark and narrow stairs to haul our luggage up and down to get to our room . I get that it’s historic but wish I had know about the stairs . Hotel charges 7 euro per person for breakfast , cup of coffee and lots of bread products . Save $ and get a coffee and roll in a shop down the street.

Hot in San Gimignano

Overall, fantastic! Air conditioning could have been better, however, 39 degree heat wave likely the issue. Very warm welcome and good information. Second time staying at this accommodation! Highly recommend.

Modern hotel with good service

Hotel was in a good location, about a 15 to 20 minute walk from the port. This same port also has a bus stop to the airport, and having read reviews about the airport hotels decided to stay hear instead, as I was flying out the next day. I'm glad I did, as the room was modern, had wifi (although was tempermental at times), and the breakfast was also very good with a wide selection of food available. The only downside is the windows weren't the best at shielding out the noise, but all things considered it was a good hotel.

Great position in road parallel to main street.

Great position near San Giovanni Gate. Lovely triple room (10) with balcony. We didn't have much of a view, but anywhere in town the photo opportunities were awesome. Kitchen facilities small, but useful and extra utensils etc were available on request from our hostess. WiFi available on our balcony - not in the room.

Great location close to gate

This hotel is located near the gate of San Gimignano, so you can walk from the bus as we did. We managed to get the room that had three electrical problems, including lack of AC which we needed due to allergies. We were eventually moved to another room. The management is not always on site, but you have to use your key to get through two doors before your room, so we felt secure. You have to go up the equivalent of 3 sets of stairs to get to the check-in. If we hadn't had problems, we would have rated this higher. It was just bad luck.

God beliggenhed men en del larm

Perfekt beliggenhed centralt. Rent værelse og badeværelse. Ekstra seng i 3 personers værelse var ussel. Madrassen var tynd som et vattæppe. Hunde er tilladt og nabo værelset havde en gøende hund. Morgenmads området var meget tæt på alle værelse og de gik igang med at klirre med service kl 8, meget larm. Det var umuligt at sove længe.
