Breakfast is GREAT! Location is midway between Volterra and San Gimangnano so you can do both in one day. The hotel itself is nothing special but perfectly acceptable, very clean and everything works - just don't go here expecting a Toscana Villa. Have supper at Tres Arches - it's excellent.

Very charming Inn.. Heart of Tuscany. Pool and cleanliness. The breakfast is typical Eueopean fair but was all excellent..good variety and quality and quantity. Close to Voltera and San Gimignano. Very good restaraunt within walking distance included a olive oil sample of 5 bottles to choose. Real quiet outside hustle and bustle of city noise.

An absolute gem. A beautiful hotel in a quiet hill town with a fantastic swimming pool. Great breakfast. Lunch around the pool was superb and a top restaurant only 200 m away for dinner. Amazing value for money. Highly recommend.

Lovely little villa in the Tuscan countryside. The owners, Luca and Anna were very friendly and accommodating. The rooms were comfortable although the pillows could be a little softer. The room with the balcony has a beautiful view of the Tuscan countryside. Great location to access all the little towns in the Tuscany. Breakfast was amazing. Anna makes all her own sweets and breads, and they were absolutely delicious, ! We had a wonderful stay at Le Volpaie.

Advertised by Expedia to be located in San Gimignano but is instead 15km away on a narrow windy road, away from the city. Somewhat misleading and Expedia should not bury Castelsangimignano deep in the post. If you don’t care to drive the 15km late at night with headlights oncoming to get home, then I suggest staying in the old city itself. Presently in a great room over looking Tuscany for 100$ CDN a night.

Two nights in San Gimignano
The accommodations were nice and clean. The balcony was a pleasant surprise and the pool was nice. The breakfast was excellent with many delicious options. The only downside was the owners/operators were not very hospitable and the spoke little English. When paying the bill, there was no questions about how our stay was, or where we went/where we’re going. He ran the payment, said sign here, gave us our copy and went back to his business. Otherwise, a good stay in a very quiet town.

Very nice hotel. Great base to explore the area.
Very good value for money. Very clean room with balcony. Excellent and very well kept swimming pool. Lots of stairs and slopes so not 100% ideal for my wife who has a knee problem. Away from all the tourists in a quiet location in a small village with a shop, bar and really nice inexpensive restaurant. Ideal base to explore the hill towns around San Gimignano.

Quiet small inn type hotel about 20 min drive from San Gimignano. You must have a car to stay here. There is a pool which is a welcome after a hot day out, and the buffet breakfast is very nice. There is lots of choice and even some homemade items. For lunch or dinner you need to go outside of the hotel. There is only 1 nice restaurant in the town that you can walk to. The hotel rooms are clean and the windows open out to a beautiful country side view. If you want a peaceful and quiet stay this is the place for you.

Pleasant Hotel
The hotel was pleasant but the Deluxe room turned out to be a standard room and, whilst we were refunded the difference, we had to find this out ourselves and seek the refund which was gladly given but spoilt the stay. When we compare the stay to other places we have been in Italy, its probably our least favourite but generally ok.

A lovely little find!
We stayed here for a week's holiday in August and thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We had a room in the Annex to the hotel right next to the pool, however we weren't disturbed by the pool as it was fairly small and we only saw adults in it. The pool was clean and well maintained, with sun loungers surrounding it. Our room was comfortable, had aircon, tea-making facilities, a fridge, a great shower, plenty of clothes storage and was cleaned every day. The buffet breakfast in the hotel was excellent: tea, coffee, juices, cereals, breads, cakes, cold meats and cheeses, boiled eggs, fruits, yogurt, and all sorts of jams and accompaniments. They even had decaf coffee for us odd sorts :-) There is one restaurant within walking distance which is good, very welcoming, but not cheap. We found a few other restaurants within a short drive that were good value with good food, Il Monte pizzeria great for pizza, pasta or something more exotic like wild boar cooked in chocolate (amazing!), La Locanda del Borgo with a great set menu and Fattoria di Mugnano - the hotel kindly gave us a list of places to eat nearby, which was helpful. Castel san Gimignano isn't really waking distance of anywhere so you need a car, but a great base to experience Tuscany from.
