We only stayed two nights, but it felt like we were in a movie!
The room is spacious and very comfortable. The entire property is wonderful and very tasteful. However, the Hotel has enormous potential yet to be explored...
The weather wasn't fantastic, but we managed to stretch out on the pool chairs during the afternoon and it was really nice.
We felt at home! A very familiar environment and ideal for those who want to experience a "family home"!

A Tempting Tuscan Sun
San Gimignano, with the Italian sun glistening intently on its 14 remaining towers, cuts a dramatic figure from its position high on a Tuscan hill overlooking vineyards. However, it is when you get up-close-and-personal with this medieval-walled city and crane your neck to the blue sky that you truly appreciate its mesmerising beauty.
If you take away the swarming summer tourists circling the piazzas of San Gimignano, then this city offers you a wonderful trip back in time. The main square, Piazza della Cisterna, is surrounded by Romanesque buildings and Piazza del Duomo features Torre Grossa, the city’s tallest tower.
San Gimignano, originally an Entruscan village, was part of the ancient pilgrim route Via Francigena joining France to Rome. Its name was derived from the Bishop of Modena and is well known today as the Town of Fine Towers.

And just out of the city are options such as farm stays and country houses in the Tuscan countryside.
A trip to Tuscany must include San Gimignano! Highly recommend for its medieval charm, spectacular views and delicious food. It really feels like stepping back in time. It’s not public transport accessible and if you have limited time, hiring a car is the best way to go. Ample public parking is available as well.
We visited around late October so it wasn’t too busy compared to summer time and the weather was perfectly warm during the day and mild around dinner time. Light jacket only. It’s a photographer’s delight as there’s always a scenic opportunity as we turn a corner.
From SG we drove to Siena, another stunning city close by and not to miss! For lunch we were lucky enough to stumble upon a small multi-Routard recommended resto and it seriously did not disappoint. It’s called Osteria Nonna Gina di Lella e Dado. Some of the best pasta we’ve had in Emilia Romagna is here.
Also don’t miss the gelato at Gelateria Dondoli, they’ve won multiple awards and offer unique gelato flavours you really have to try.

If you’re in Tuscany, you have to visit San Giminiano.
If you’re in Tuscany, you have to visit San Giminiano. The city centre has a very special architecture and a lot of small shops and wineries. It’s the perfect place to spend a few days with your spouse. We had a wine tasting at Marronaia Winery, close to the city and we enjoyed it, but next time I would also try another winery, like Tenuta Torciano, which we tried a few months earlier. We ate a fantastic meal at ristorante Fuoriluogo, which I recommend strongly. I recommend staying as close as possible to the city, it’s a nice feeling that you can walk while admiring the sights.

I can't describe it, you have to be there, you have to see this miracle.
I recommend parking lots number 3 and 4, there is always space, the price is reasonable and you only have to walk for a few minutes, and there is also an elevator.

It is one of the most unique destinations in all of Europe. San Gimignano is a must-visit when in Tuscany. Its medieval appearance whisks you back in time and one can easily transform the tourists to locals bringing their food to market. High-quality restaurants and a world-champion gelateria, what is not to fall in love with. Leave your healed shoes at home and wear comfortable footwear as the streets, side streets and shops are far from smooth, but this is just part of the experience

We stayed in late September, the weather was amazing and the city not to crowded. I would fully recommend staying in the exceptional hill top town which in the evenings as the crowds go home is the perfect place to eat and relax.

You can explore the Torre Grossa and a couple of other sites with one pass, there's excellent pasta (you will smell the ragù while you explore in the afternoon!) and aperitivi for just a few euros, plenty of places to cool off with gelato, and the view over Tuscany from the Torre and the Rocca are spectacular.
The town in miniature is also worth your time. And be sure to have a glass of Vernaccia, the local white wine!
We absolutely loved the host. Even though the farm was far away from the city he always offered us a ride (we were traveling with a group of 18-years old and did not have a car). He brought us homemade pasta sauce and mostly because of that we didn't mind any of the accommodation inconveniences. We loved the mini bar (we had never seen such low prices in italy- even lower than in the store) and the pool and the table tennis. If we were ever to visit san giminiano again we would love to come back here!!
love you Paolo:)
This was the best place we've stayed during our trip to Italy so far. The appartment was very confortable, clean and had everything we needed for our stay in San Gimignano. The location is extraordinary, right on the historic city. It has plenty of natural light and the decoration is very well thought out, giving the guests the feeling of being in an authentic tuscan house. The communication with Brunella was efficient and she is a very nice host. I would definetly stay there again.
Alessandro runs a GREAT Place in a super Location.
The house is full of "style" fully fitting the owner... all well done... with the necessary touch/look of "roughness" Authentic.
Perfect location to visit San Gimignano and all Tuscany, well organized.
Relaxing Park for Sundowners and nice pool.
Alessandro is probably the "coolest" host Italy can offer,,, and he is a fantastic cook! Book a dinner.
-Perfect mix between modern elements while keeping the historic charm alive
- refurbished two storey bungalow with fully equipped kitchen and small patio ideal to relax
- great pool to swim and pass the midday heat
- exceptionally friendly hotel staff
- delicious breakfast and dinner with nice view
In conclusion: nicest Hotel we stayed at during our three week Italy trip!
Roberto, the host was extremely hospitalble and pleasant. He gave us good dinner recommendation based on our interest and the breakfast basket was delicious and plenty. The view from our room and the home in general was spectacular. Lyla, the cute dog was a bonus- so sweet and well behaved! This was the best part of our stay in Italy
The palace is a gorgeous and well maintained hotel/historic jewel located conveniently in the city center. The hotelier Marzia is professional and knowledgeable. Marzia provides 5 star hotel concierge services for her guests. Her knowledge of the town and the Tuscany region is helpful to tourists seeking additional help.
Great location to San Gimignano. Great views of the Tuscan countryside. Dinner with the hotel guests feels like dinner with family. The host came around with a platter and asked if you wanted seconds. Room was very clean, great AC. Beautiful views. Close to the beautiful patio. A beautiful property.
We have been in Italy for about 2 weeks and this is the best property we have stayed at since coming. The property is beautiful, the service was exceptional and the wine is excellent. We ordered a case to be shipped to our home. If you are ever in the Florence area, staying here is a must.,
Lovely country villa, looked great, and nice setting with trees & pool area. Generously sized apartment with cooker etc, & every apartment had an outdoor eating space. Not too far of a walk from the town, which in itself is great! A highlight on our trip around Italy. Would highly recommend!
Quiet location on a beautiful property within about 20 minutes walk of San gimignano old town centre. Comfortable beds, modern facilities, heaps of space inside and out, everything you could need for a short or long term stay. Best we have stayed in during our trip around Italy.
This was the best place we stayed during our 2 week Italy trip! The rooms are super cosy and clean. The location is perfect, right in the middle of the old time. What really made us love this place was the kindnesses and friendly demeanor of the owner.
What a fantastic place! We were a party of 4 with 2 dogs and loved every minute of our short stay here. An excellent stop amongst the olive groves on our way down to southern Italy. Will definitely be visiting again.
We liked the views, the size of the apartment, the location near San Gimignano and the hills, the decoration and the kids liked the pool a lot. The host is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is very nice.
This is a nice little hotel in a great location! So quick to get some amazing wineries and San Gimignano. The pool is lovely and the breakfast was pretty good!
