Perfect location and great hosts

Our room was large with a small kitchen and perfect for us. Unfortunately the weather was unseasonably cold, however the hosts arranged a heater to help take the chill off. Breakfast was really good, and if you wanted they would provide additional options, you just had to ask. The hosts were incredibly helpful, they could just about arrange anything you needed to see or do. Of course the reason you stay here is for the location, and this place is perfect, when all the day trippers go home late in the afternoon, you have this beautiful town almost to yourself.

Charming little place!

This place was exactly as advertised and the pictures don’t do it justice—it is so lovely and had all the necessities for a comfortable stay. Perfect central location and helpful details for parking were much appreciated. The history of the home and the graciousness of the hostess were bonuses.

Fantastic place and fantastic host

I didn’t expect to be needy, but I got rather sick while I was there. As I was traveling solo, so it was comforting to know I was cared for. Marzia, her husband, Bianca, and their sweet maid really did watch out for me. Thank you so much!!The accommodation was exactly as they listed it and I adore staying at historical properties like this one. And…it’s in the historic ZTL zone. So the parking was about 5-10 minutes away but dropping off/picking up your luggage is only a 2-minute walk (you get 15 minutes, then have to move your car)). I highly recommend this place. They are marvelous people!

A Gem inside San Gimignano

This is a beautiful property with a lovely apartment that had a lovely quiet courtyard with plants and antiqque decor to enjoy. Property owner and staff were so nice and kind. It made our stay all the better! They included info about local sights and recommendations for restaurants around.and we even received a discount at some locations just for staying here! It's a beautiful place in an old medieval town. Close to shopping sights and dining! Loved our stay!

Great location

The room was in a great location right by one of the gates to the city. It was a beautiful old building with a great private courtyard. The room was clean and everything worked inside. Warning: there is no AC, but we went in September and kept the window open at night. The host was very helpful and knowledgeable about the city and surrounding areas. She gave us great recommendations. Free parking only a 10-12 minute walk from room.

The Palace

This property was everything we were looking for and more! From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty. Marisa and Bianca were more than helpful and never made us feel like we were a bother and believe me we had many questions. They went out of there way to help us and arranged transportation for us and also to a wine tasting. They even offered to make dinner reservations for us. They are truly the best! We would definitely stay there again.

Good for what we needed

We stayed just one night. Our host was very helpful and allowed us to store our luggage early while our room was bing prepared, which allowed us some extra time to explore. The room is very quiet, and dark, so good for sleeping.

Perfect location

The apartment was cosy and comfortable and ideally situated in San Gimignano. The apartment was surprisingly quite considering how far from the main street the place is. The courtyard is beautiful and an ideal spot to relax away from it all. There are plenty of places to eat and drink and they are all a short walk away. The only criticism is about unloading and finding the place. Directions are provided and the host is responsive and helpful but we had to call in the end. There are a couple of parking bays just outside the town walls that have a max 15min waiting but there were never available so had to park in one of the many paid car parks which wasn’t a problem but aren’t that close when you are carrying your luggage. Once we had settled in we tracked down the free parking. Don’t let this put you off as the apartment is great and ideal for exploring the town.

Mixed Experience

The location was perfect, the attention/helpfulness from staff re: parking, places to eat, laundry services, etc. excellent, and the ambiance very cool (13th century and all that). We had a charming courtyard, a full kitchen (although we were expected to not eat in the apartment), and a reasonably comfortable bed. There seemed to be a problem with mold, though; we should have been suspicious when the windows were open and a large fan running when we arrived. It was unmistakable in the bathroom, where the toilet and shower were only separated by a temporary screen (and the shower drain was in the middle of the bathroom floor, which of course became dangerously wet after each shower). We also noticed that items in the room were moved around when we weren't "home," which definitely made us uncomfortable.

Amazing, one of a kind experience.

Wow! To stay in a 13th century castle in the heart of medevil San Gimingano! Such a unique and surreal experience. Was perfect for our family of 4. Marzia was so helpful in guiding us/providing recommendations for everything from bike tours to a cooking class and wine tasting. She even facilitated laundry service for us, as we were on an extended holiday. Would stay again in a minute. Thank you Marzia, for an unforgettable experience.

Unique accommodations with great hosts.

Charming apartment in a walled fortress city. After a bit of searching for parking we really enjoyed our stay. Luigi and Marzia are great hosts. The property has been in the family for generations. It was nice to hear the history of the estate and explore this charming city. Clean well kept with free wifi. So many good restaurants within a short walk and a bakery nearby. Wish we had more time to spend there.

Very unique and fun! A beautiful place.

I'm so glad that we stayed here. The host is very sweet and the apartment and patio were beautiful. It felt very authentic- not like a plain hotel at all. The only thing that we missed was A/C but even in July it wasn't a big deal. I highly recommend this spot.
