Guest Reviews
- Francesca (10/5): - Posizione ottima in centro
Camera pulita
Staff disponibile Prezzi molto alti in tutto il centro senza colazione 🤷♀️

- Murray (8/5): - location . good recommendation for good restaurants with discounts
- Lydia (6/5): Vyborna lokalita, priemerne sluzby - Vyborna póoha, pohodlna postel Komunikacia, dlho trvalo kym som sa dostala k izbe, prazdny minibar, izba by uz potrebivala nejake opravy
- Claudia (7/5): -
- Louise (9/5): -
- Anna (8/5): Nice and lively square - It was right in the middle of everything. Really great location N/A
- Marco (2/5): - La camera prenotata prevedeva esplicitamente la “vista sulla città” ma quella assegnata non offriva alcuna vista, bensì soltanto una bocca d’aria apribile parzialmente mediante meccanismo meccanizzato. Quello che poi ha dato fastidio è il modo in cui siamo stati trattati, con la struttura che ha richiesto un supplemento per un cambio camera, circostanza che ritengo non accettabile.
Tramite booking abbiamo segnalato immediatamente la situazione alla struttura, che però si è guardata bene dal rispondere. In tanti anni e viaggi è la prima volta che ci capita. Peccato
- Vista poi la risposta fornita dalla struttura alla mia recensione aggiungo quanto segue:
Ciò che colpisce non è tanto l’errore nell’aver assegnato una camera non corrispondente a quella prenotata quanto la MANCANZA DI RISPETTO E PROFESSIONALITA' dimostrata nella gestione.
Sarebbe bastato scusarsi invece si è preferito non rispondere alla segnalazione di Booking e inventarsi di averci sistemato in altra struttura. Ho la buona abitudine di fotografare e documentare i miei soggiorni e posso dimostrare che la mattina successiva eravamo nella medesima stanza del giorno precedente.
- Gino (9/5): - Posizione eccezionale. Vista dalla camera sulla piazza. Un ringraziamento al gestore che ci ha concesso di occupare l'appartamento in anticipo visto che arrivavamo a piedi dopo una giornata di pioggia
- Gary (10/5): We had a change of plans because of an issue with VRBO. They came to the rescue! - Ideal location off the Piazza dells Erbe. Great spot!
- Kovács (10/5): -
- Alain (8/5): - Un pied à terre au cœur de la ville Une relation lapidaire avec le préposé.
- Paolo (9/5): - Posizione ottima, nel cuore di San Gimignano
- Anna (10/5): - Accogliente, pulita e storica: un tuffo nel passato.

- Marta (10/5): Klimatyczne miejsce z cudowną lokalizacją -
- Francesca (10/5): Posizione ottima - La posizione è ottimale, in pieno centro. Molto accogliente e pulita
- Katarzyna (8/5): I had a very pleasant stay overall. The room was beautiful, very clean, and warm — which I really appreciated as I staye - Great location. There was no one at reception when I arrived for check-in, but I was able to resolve everything via WhatsApp with the host, who was responsive and helpful.
One small suggestion would be to include some basic amenities in the room, such as water or a simple refreshment option, especially as the pricing is similar to a hotel. It would make the experience even more comfortable.
- Nicola (9/5): - Fabulous location, on a lovely square with cafe outside. Clean rooms lovely smelling air fresheners. Comfortable beds, hot powerful shower and stunning view from the window. Prompt and efficient staff. No tea and coffee facilities in room.
- Raul Antonio (8/5): -
- Jeffrey (10/5): The best location. A quality room. - Great location in the centre of the historic district. Spotless. Rustic historical building. Good heating. Excellent cafe on the piazza downstairs with outside seating to watch the world go by. A lot of these older establishments have steep steps to get to your room. That is a given and comes with the architecture. A touch small as a space but manageable. Shower recesses also small but this seems standard in these parts.
- Michela (10/5): - L'appartamento è pulito, curato e ben arredato, sembra di recente ristrutturazione. La posizione è ottima. Il personale gentile e disponibile. Siamo rimasti due notti e il secondo giorno, inaspettatamente, abbiamo trovato il bagno pulito e sistemato e gli asciugamani cambiati. Esperienza più che positiva.

- Benjamin (7/5): -
- Colin (7/5): A little disappointing - Nice room, centrally located, but I read online I could drop bags at hotel before moving car to parking outside the city. Not the case we had to carry bags 1/2 mile from parking outside the city, Also when we got there we found the room for 4 we had booked was under construction and we had to make do with a room for 3. Also unmanned location, hard to get hold of anyone,

- Jane (10/5): We had a wonderful stay here and will definitely be back!! - Very central with nice clean rooms and very nice bedlinen.
- mattia (6/5): -
- Beat (8/5): Zentral gelegen und sauber - Sehr zentral gelegen, sauber, freundliches Personal Das Restaurant des Hotelbesitzers ist zwar sehr populär, aber für italienische Standards ist das Essen nicht die Reise wert.
- Alexandros (7/5): - Perfect location The bathroom had a weird smell.
- Mark (8/5): Great location at a reasonable price. - We stayed here after walking the Via Francigena from Gambassi Terme (13.4km). It was right in the heart of the town and very well positioned.
Room was comfortable and served its purpose - close to everything. All good really.
- Jan (10/5): -
- Leccese (10/5): - Parcheggio
- Torsten (9/5): -
- Linda (8/5): - not easy to get to if you have a larger car. We could not get thru the gate so we had to walk quite a distance with our bags.
- Reinhold (9/5): Great stopover along the Via Francingena trail, in a unique medieval town. - A terrific location, right in the heart of the walled town. We had a view of one of the famous towers from our window and it was a short walk to get anywhere you wished. Good eateries were nearby and a supermarket was at the other end of town. We walked to and from San Gimignano, and can recommend the hotel as a good stop for those travelling by foot along the Via Francingena or staying longer.
- Federico (6/5): - La struttura era in una posizione ottimale, molto pulita ed accogliente. Il letto era abbastanza scomodo,l'insonorizzazione della camera poca.
- Secco (9/5): - Posizione centralissima con vista su una piazzetta meravigliosa
- Лидия Мачева (8/5): - Местоположението е отлично. Стаята е голяма. Леглото е голямо. Има масичка, столове и хладилник. Възглавниците са ниски. Матракът е твърд. Няма асансьор и кана за топла вода. От канала мирише лошо.
- Martin (8/5): -
- Philippe (8/5): Situation idéale pour profiter du centre avant et après afflux touristiques - Situation centrale et charme de l'ancien.
Pas trop loin du parking (3 & 4) une fois bien assimilé le plan de la ville. Extrême froideur lors du check-in (aucune envie d'aller dîner dans leur restaurant / pizzeria vu l'absence complète d'empathie).
TV en panne (deux jours)
- katherin (9/5): -
- Claudia Urwalek (9/5): -
- Patrick (1/5): - Beautiful quaint place lovely young lady with her little daughter left us in and was very helpful. It was a great location easy to get to and we parked in car park 2 and a 10 minute walk to the casa.
- Julie (6/5): - Great location,very historic building. We waited almost an hour for someone to check us in ( we received acknowledgement of this later). The bedroom smelled of stale laundry and the bathroom sadly smelt strongly of urine..
- Ballhysa (8/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): Walking the Via Francigena - Clean and comfortable. A little noisy at night as my room was near a cafe
- David (1/5): - Da evitare proprio!!
In breve, in due scegliamo di passare una notte nel bellissimo borgo di San Giminiano. Troviamo su Booking un albergo con due stanze ancora libere, una matrimoniale e una quadrupla comfort. Per stare piu comodi prenotiamo quella quadrupla. Arriviamo all albergo e andiamo in reception. Ci danno le chiavi e andiamo su in camera. Confusi, dato che la camera è quella matrimoniale e non quadrupla, controlliamo la se abbiamo prenotato la camera sbagliata. Constatato che la prenotazione era giusta e che la camera era sbagliata, chiamiamo il responsabile. Ci dice - cosa cambia, tanto siete in due-. Io dico che non va bene cosi, anche perche quella quadrupla costa di piu e ci fa che ci richiama perche in quel momento occupato. Dopo ci richiama e ci fa che dovevamo diglielo subito e che ormai non si poteva fare niente. Io replico che si ha ragione, ma prima di lamentarmi della camera, volevo essere sicuro che lo sbaglio nn fosse mio. Ci accordiamo per un rimborso parziale il sabato sera. Al quarto giorno di attesa per il rimborso richiamo il responsabile e mi fa che non ha ancora fatto nulla per il rimborso. Provvedero con un reclamo su Booking.
- SOFIA BARMPAGIANNI (10/5): - Beautiful place. Really takes you to another era. The stuff is friendly and helpful with everything. Especially the cleaning lady was lovely. The room clean, big and beautiful. The location is amazing, in the heart of the town. There is also a cafe just outside. Highly recommend!! Hope we can come back for a longer time.
