Honeymoon couple in Tuscany
We had a private patio with a beautiful view of the Tuscan hillside. Our bed was very comfortable. The shower had instant heat and the shower stream luxurious. The breakfast buffet was amazing! There was a shuttle to San Gimignano four times daily but also a walking path away from the main road with a beautiful view (25 minute walk uphill easy back to the hotel). It was a bit cool to use the pool. All the staff were very friendly and we felt welcome. We would come back again! This was a great place to find local cooking class, horseback riding and local wine/olive oil tasting. They have a Michelin restaurant in house and our meal there was fantastic!

Great experience- hotel and restaurant
We had a great experience. We went end of March, and this looks like a summer hotel, but the rooms and everywhere we went was perfectly maintained. Clean and comfortable. The restaurant was really good, even the local wine and the olive oil we brought home. It’s a family business and they are present from the beginning till the restaurant service.

The hotel is obviously not sold out and yet the staff claim it was sold out and that late checkout would not be possible. Why end the client stay this way? Leave a bad taste in the mouth when it would be so easily to accommodate the customer. There are so many unused rooms in this large complex. Pity.

Great hotel near San Gimignano
This is a really nice hotel, with a beautiful pool, comfortable, clean and big rooms, fantastic breakfast, and a quiet location in the countryside, yet ~20 min walk to the center of San Gimignano, which is in my opinion much better than staying with all the crowds in the city center. All in all, fantastic!

A quick stay. The property is out from the town, so you will need a car. The breakfast is amazing. There are lots of options. We were there during the off season, so there was almost no one around.

H. Sovestro
Perfect location, close to San Gimignano (but not really "walking distance" due to busy road), it has an excellent on-site restaurant, too. Nice property, clean, rooms not too small. Due to lack of time (six night stay) I did not use pool, gym, etc... Excellent breakfast with lots of choice. Very nice and friendly staff. I would most definitely stay at Sovestro again.
