"Nice hotel in town center. We did not have a car so parking was not an issue. We moved to this hotel from our luxury accommodations outside of SG because of it’s proximity to so many more things to do. We liked it enough to consider a return. "

"I will dream of this property forever. It has the most magnificent view of San Gimignano and the countryside, and is literally a 5 minute drive into town.

Donna Nobile
8.4 out of 10, Very Good, (115)

There is a somewhat narrow time window when staff are present to receive you, between 2:30 pm and 7 pm, unless you make specific arrangements with them. The room and bathroom were fine and there is a common area kitchen. If on foot, the location of the hotel within the walled historic city is fine, not far from the central square but up a hill. Restaurants are also nearby. The bus stop to the nearest train...
