La Torre Useppi

We had a wonderful stay at La Torre Useppi in San Gimignano, and we truly appreciated the charm and character of this place. The room we stayed in, located in the medieval tower, was stunning, with breathtaking views of the cathedral, it felt like a little piece of history. The space itself is surprisingly large, offering plenty of room to relax, and despite being in the heart of the town, the apartment was extremely warm and cosy, which was especially appreciated during our winter visit. The heating was fantastic, and the entire place was impeccably clean and tidy. Filipo was exceptional!!! he went out of his way to ensure we had everything we needed, offering great local tips and providing a level of hospitality that made our stay even more enjoyable. His helpfulness truly stood out and made us feel very welcome. A few points to consider: The property is located in a medieval tower, so there are quite a few steps to get to the apartment (not loads, but worth mentioning as I saw some reviews complaining about this, but it should not be a stop over). This might be a challenge for elderly guests or anyone with mobility issues, although it’s not a problem if you're in good shape (we travelled with young children and they found the steps amazing as there were flowers and it was a superb experience for them). Additionally, the parking is about a 7-minute walk away, which wasn’t a problem for us since we travel light, but anyone with larger suitcases might find the cobblestone streets a bit tricky. That said, this is all part of the charm of staying in a medieval town like San Gimignano, so if you’re aware of that before booking, it shouldn’t be an issue. Overall, La Torre Useppi is a fantastic place to stay with its spacious, beautiful rooms and fantastic location. We definitely recommend it, and we’ll be back the next time we're in San Gimignano! Thank you again to Filipo for making our stay so special!

Hot water is on/off as expected in old town anywhere in Italy. Not a problem for us though, as we are used to cold showers (and it was not that cold anyway! :))

Great host Clean apartment Warm- heating worked great ( February)

The owner is very nice and helped us a lot. The location is perfect, the apartment is in the tower in the city center, just in front of the church, cannot be more central :-)

Huge Apartment in one of those medieval towers right in the city centre

In the central of the town. Big space with lots of amenities.

Cleaner let themselves in without letting us know before our checkout time. Felt like an invasion of privacy. Also my partner got bed bug bites on his body. The bed had a latex sheet cover which was strange.

Fantastic location and unique accommodation. The place is big and looks better than the photos. Host was very helpful with our luggage and directions.

Parking is a bit far away. We got a bit cold when the heating went off, it was warm at night though.
