Beautiful views, comfy room, nice pool and a lot of green space to relax
Originally a Franciscan convent built in 1587, Hotel La Collegiata is located in the Colli Seneri area, within east reach of mediaeval towns such as San Gimignano and Volterra.

Relais Santa Chiara is set just 400 metres from the medieval walls of San Gimignano, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It offers elegant rooms, a garden, and an outdoor pool.
The view and the location! The breakfast was another level.
Offering an outdoor swimming pool and a garden, Hotel Le Colline is set amidst the Tuscan countryside, 1 km from San Gimignano’s historic centre. It offers rustic-style rooms with free Wi-Fi.
Spacious room, good breakfast, great swimming pool. Staff was great.
Set along the old Via Francigena road, Villa Ducci is situated in a panoramic position with magnificent views over the mediaeval town San Gimignano, less than 2 km from its city centre.
Beautiful location and the rooms were of good quality.
Set in the heart of San Gimignano on central Via San Matteo, L'Antico Pozzo is a 15th-century building renovated under the supervision of Italy's Fine Arts.
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.
The 12th-century Collegiate Church of San Gimignano is a worth a visit with its wonderful collection of frescoes, and it also includes the Religious Art Museum.
Whether it is sitting on a restaurant terrace sipping some local Vernaccia wine or attending the lively Thursday Market, Booking.com has a range of San Gimignano hotels, guest houses and apartments for your stay. And just out of the city are options such as farm stays and country houses in the Tuscan countryside.
VERY popular with tourists, and well-deserved! You can easily chew up a solid day trying to cover all the interesting sights. There's no shortage of expected tourist shops along the clean quaint walks with buildings towering either side. A pleasant add is all the good quality clothing, food/drinks stops and art stores, as well. My wife could not decide on two light summer dresses, but were reasonably enough priced I got her both. And then quite nice sandals at another shop. And surprisingly inexpensive very good wines of the region's bespoke grapes. Definitely get the full tour ticket when doing the Tower Grosso climb and Collegiata cathedral tour. There's 5 attractions total included, and DO NOT MISS the contemporary art, medieval medicinal glass & glazedware works, and performing artists photo portraits exhibition all together at Museo Etrusco at the outskirts of the area. It's hidden gem, and conveniently on the way to the lower carpark. Car parking is a bear, and you must get there even before mid morning.

The stay was way too short, wish could have lasted longer, the room with the balcony view was a pleasant surprise, fantastic panorama couldn't ask for more, the breakfast had a lot of variety to suit everyone's choice . The staff are very helpful and friendly , a special mention for the lady who cleans the rooms, not easy but she did the work with care and a smile on her face , would recommend to anyone who has the chance to visit😊

It was wonderfully located for our other side trips to Florence, Siena, and Chianti.
There was a lovely art store and shop for kitchen aprons, linens and oven mitts which can be custom embroidered where we made purchases.
And an interesting paper museum all within a short walk of each other.

Gorgeous little town, amazing food and really nice to walk around. It is clearly designed for tourists which has both positives and negatives. There is clear signage everywhere and the parking facilities are excellent (and cheap!) However it does get really crowded in the afternoon as there are a lot of tours in big groups walking around so would advise going early morning or evening. The evening time was great, very few tourists around and lots of nice restaurants and gelaterie to get dinner/ice cream.

A trip to Tuscany must include San Gimignano!
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.
This hotel is beautifully run! The staff are so helpful
And cudgels! From the moment Emanuele picked me up at the train station to the time I checked in with Massimo! Massimo arranged my dinner reservations and took excellent care of me. I come to Italy every year for a month and the bed is one of the most comfortable I have slept in! The location is incredible! I’m only sorry I didn’t stay 1 or 2 days more! They make you just feel special!
This lovely hotel was a highlight of our 14 days in Italy. It and the grounds were gorgeous. The staff were helpful. The breakfast was plentiful. The shower and bathroom were huge. We loved walking in the vineyard. We didn't use the two pools but they were so pretty, as was the landscaping, View was spectacular. Such a gem. I had no idea when I booked how special this pace would be. There's a great private patio and even a chapel.
We loved our stay in Borgo Montauto! Thank you very much for having us.
The room was perfect for us, the house is lovely, breakfast really good!! The location was perfect to visit Tuscany whilst enjoying the calm and the views of the countryside. Special mention for the swimming pool, which is really enjoyable given the warmth of Italy.
There even is a covered area to park the car in the shade!
Exceptional stay, recommend 100%.
Everything!!! if you imagine a beautiful villa in Tuscany with a view…..it is this place! The rooms were immaculate and very nicely furnished. The place had everything you would need to cook too. the view is breathtaking. Andrea was super friendly and so helpful. This was by far the best place we stayed in all of our Italy trip. I will definitely go back!
The location was a short walk from the historic center of San Gimignano which was very convenient. Also, there was free parking at the hotel for guests. The view from the backyard of the property was beautiful and the pool area was very nice. The staff at check in was very friendly and understood/spoke English well.
Staying here was the highlight of our 3 weeks in Italy. Stephen and his crew were so helpful, the food was delicious, pool sparkling clean. It was a really peaceful place to stay, and a great location for venturing out into Tuscany. We highly recommend it and hope we can come back!
Breakfast is at par of what you get in Italy, great selection of hams good fruits and also sweets. Coffe is Great and their dinners ale super tastefull. ALso you can buy wine that is served in dinner. From terase is awesome view on San Gimignano that is 2km away!
Very pleasant to deal with friendly, laid back staff, best breakfast of any place we stayed in Italy, stunning environment and beautiful buildings, bicycle availability, excellent location near San Gimignano whose towers are visible from the hotel premises.
Very nice hotel near San Gimignano. I love the style of this old couvent. The swimming pool area is very calm and beautiful. My room was charming with a great view on the village and countryside. One of the best hotel I staid in my life. Ideal for a couple.
-Amazing hotel, beautiful view, beautiful and clean rooms.
-Breakfast was good.
-Comfortable bathroom
-The location is great because it’s only 10 min from San Gimignano but you get the perfect view.
-There is a little farm with cute horses and donkeys.
Monica and her family are wonderful! In my opinion, it’s always the people that make the experience that much better and memorable. Be sure to have a ‘Nicola Spritz’ in the afternoon or by the pool! Best spritz I’ve had in Italy!
This place is by far the best that we have stayed in in all of Italy. Tuscany is so gorgeous & this villa was right in the middle of the vineyards. So picturesque, comfy, great host, great linens, wonderful breakfast.
If you are visiting Italy and Turkey want to immerse yourself in Tuscany this hotel is IT! Such a beautiful location! View of San Gimignano was perfect from the deck. Nice pool and gardens as well.
The location is right inside the city walls so super convenient to the public parking lot near the entrance and convenient for walking within the walls to all the sites in San Gimignano.
just outside of San Gimignano...very charming hotel / b&b sorround by rolling hills and beautiful landscape. .breakfast was awesome and the room was very comfortable.
perfect location the views were incredible and the food was amazing! Some of the best food we had in italy. The hosts were amazing and the pool was fabulous!
