Hotels near Enoteca Bruni, San Gimignano

The location of the hotel is very good, it is very easy to find by car, and it is also very close to San Gimignano City. Walking on the small road to the old city, the scenery is very beautiful, fully reflecting the unique natural environment of Tuscan scenery.

The only reason I would consider giving 2 stars is for the views (from the hotel in general our room was overlooking the parking lot) but I couldn’t get myself to do it. By European standards this is definitely not a 4* hotel - 3 at most. The receptionist was not friendly at all upon arrival - no apology for us waiting at least 10 minutes for him to even acknowledge us, and then he practically laughed in our faces when we normally asked if we’re allowed to park down in the rocky driveway and in a very sarcastic tone said “yes, like everyone else” - wonder if that was because he saw our expensive car. The room was very outdated and dirty. Also, how does a 4* hotel only offer bed sheets as duvets in September which is not too warm at nights and has an old ragged cover to put on top of the sheets - there’s nothing you can put the cover into so we had to improvise (photos). We asked if there were any bed linens and were told that they don’t use them here - we think that that’s crazy unhygienic. The bathroom was just plain dirty and unkept. A wierd thing was happening in the room as well - when you turned off a light it would also turn of some sockets in the room that we were using to charge our devices. I wonder whether that was on purpose to save on energy costs. I have a video of this I wish I could post here. The breakfast was very low quality, nothing fresh, just standard cereal an yoghurt, pastries from a plastic bag (smthg like 7days) and AWFUL coffee from a machine (in Italy?!?). The pool area was dirty and unkept. In general we couldn’t wait to get out of there.

Villasanpaolo resort has many positive aspects that make it the perfect location for a week end, or a longer holidays, in Tuscany. First of all the location, in the beautiful Val d'Orcia a few kilometers from San Gimignano or Certaldo. The facility is very nice with a wonderful view that sweeps towards the valley and the hills. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. After a day spent exploring Tuscany we enjoyed the SPA. The SPA is pretty big and is offering several kinds of services. Great and rich breakfast. Food in the restaurant is quite good. Overall worth for price.

The beautiful structure, in silence and green, is built between olives and wines, with a large room with a huge bathroom, both very clean. We were welcomed at our arrival with two glasses of Chianti of their very good production; we can buy both wine and oil directly from the farm. The breakfast is excellent with quality products and everything you can want. Antonella and all the girls are really nice and available, they have made us feel guests at friends' home. It will certainly be our reference point every time you pass in the area.

We holidayed here for a week & stayed at this hotel ideal for touring around beautiful Tuscany. We picked up our hire car at Pisa airport & were very pleased that the hotel had plenty of secure parking in their new car park. Our room was a junior suite, spacious, comfortable & within the room rate we had free use of the hotels spa. Although this was bookable there was no problem getting a session that suited us & enjoyed the sauna, Turkish steam room & hydra therapy pool. Continental breakfast was included in our room rate with plenty of choice & enjoyed in pleasant surroundings. Outdoor pool & seating area was wonderful. Enjoyed relaxing there during the hot afternoons. Very pleasant bar area with excellent staff. Fabrizio always welcomed you with a smile, was attentive getting our drinks & snacks & could always recommend a local restaurant for our evening meal. We had a relaxing & comfortable stay thorough enjoyed walking around Colle di Val d’Elsa & exploring Lucca, Siena, San Gimignano, Pienza & Monteriggioni. Plenty of choice of restaurants serving delicious food & wine in Colle di Val D’Elsa all walking distance from the hotel.

I'm only sorry I didn't get round to leaving this review before this! Palazzo Pacini is quite a remarkable place to stay - a gem. The owners, a charming husband and wife team genuinely exude kindness for their fellow travellers. We are Irish and were travelling with a group of American friends, one took ill and in the absence of taxis on a Sunday the owner transported our friends to the next hotel a few km away. They have created a genuine refuge from your travels - beautiful imaginative decor, every detail considered, gorgeous healthy foods, coupled with a breakfast morning veranda with stunning views, a basement restaurant that we could use to see an international Rugby match we were following. Everything was no problem and they smiled and radiated out kindness and good humour! what more could you ask for, it was just such a pity we were moving on as part of our organised walking tour. Definitely a gem to return to, my thanks to the owners for your humanity and generosity.

Great hotel in the heart of the historic centre of the mountains, excellent services such as breakfast and cleaning, super available staff and solarium! The only new but absolutely understandable private parking is not available, but for anyone who wants to stay in the historical center is the price to pay, but I must say the nearby parking is very convenient! Advised!
