Like all of the reviews available this property overall was great. The rooms and bathrooms are on the small side and could do with a paint: however the rooms are still comfortable.
I had a room with a balcony and it was amazing to watch the sunrise and sunset from there.
The staff were all kind and helpful and the communal areas and breakfast area were great. Plenty of breakfast options to choose from.
My recommendation is to have a car (where possible) as taxi from Poggibonsi train station was $60 euros and when it came to leaving: the local bus simply never arrived 😳😩😡.
2 others and I were lucky enough to hail a local man who drove us to the station in time to meet the train. Grazie 😘
We loved our stay here! The breakfast was incredible! The room is big and the staff are wonderful! Loved the pool and grassy lounge area! Walking distance to restaurants and shopping.

Overall, the property was nice but the reason I give it three stars is because I booked a room with a hill view and they gave me a completely different room with a view of the parking area and a house. They claim they overbooked the rooms but upgraded us to a “Suite”. They didn’t inform us of this until I complained about it and acted as if there was no problem at all. Had I known this I would have booked another property because let’s be honest, the view is everything in Tuscany. Not an awful experience but I would probably recommend booking another property if a balcony view is a priority for you.
Good hotel with excellent staff on hand to make your stay a pleasant one. Plenty of loungers in the gardens by the pool also, if you want to take time out. Rooms are very comfortable and offer excellent views should you wish to upgrade. Only a short walk in to town also. Definitely recommend.

Front desk not very friendly
We had a car to park instead of offering to us to park and pay
They send us out of the property to park , when we realized that the signs at the parking spots said for guess only we wonder what do they call us , so I ask and she said our car was too big and it will take 2 spaces so we said ok we will like to park and pay for parking so she told us that she had to make a call to see if she could do it and she could tell is in 5 minutes,
Then when we came back another person was there we asked again this time she said yes for 13e we can park and of course we said yes we had 3 rooms in that hotel

At the end our car fit perfectly in the spa that she told us we could not park there bc of the size
Overall not a very friendly place to stay quite disappointed in this place we have been traveling since sept 15 all over Italy I think you can check our reservations and see what I mean
This was the only disappointment so far all the other places have been GREAT
Thank you
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Great location as only 10 mins walk from San Gimignano centre. The staff are first class, very helpful and professional.

Lovely location, limited parking b
Lovely hotel, beautiful location. Had to leave the car off site on a road, which had to be moved before 8am the next day a no choice but an early wake up.
The property itself and the staff were excellent. My critique would be of the plugs in the room. They need to be updated so that you can charge your phone without taking out a converter
