Fabulous - right on the plaza. Courteous staff.
Pros:

Had a Valley view room - spectacular views! Good size room and a nice big bathroom. Appreciated the linen hand towels - very traditional Italian.

Cons:

Had twin beds”, but very narrow. Could have used a regular size twin bed. Would like to see shampoo and conditioner separate from body wash.

Pros:

L'emplacement et le batiment sont superbes

Cons:

Pas vraiment de lien entre le restaurant et l'hôtel.
Domage qu'on ne puisse pas réserver les petits déjeuners.

Pros:

Location was great. As central as it gets.

Cons:

Our room was down a hallway close to the restaurant and we could hear all the noise from the restaurant. The aircon also didn't work properly.

This hotel is dependable and comfortable with professional quality staff.
Pros:

This hotel is a real hotel with the staff constantly available. The location is excellent. The breakfast is superior with many healthy choices available. The staff was helpful in assistance in taking the bus to Siena. If I return to San Gimignano, I would gladly stay at this hotel.

Cons:

More terry cloth towels would be good instead of the flat ones.

Fabulous location
Pros:

Epic location in central square, super comfy room and large bathroom with a shower in the bath

Cons:

No view and rather grumpy staff; also unusual not to have breakfast included though a bonus to go and eat elsewhere in the town
