Hotels near Poderi Arcangelo Winery, San Gimignano

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 The room was very outdated and dirty.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.

This hotel was really gorgeous, the views from breakfast were amazing. We had a quadruple room and it was very well laid out and enough space for all 4 adults comfortably. The breakfast was gorgeous with enough choice for everyone. The pool was idyllic and absolutely spotless. More importantly the staff were amazing. We couldnt get a taxi to a winery and one of the workers said he would take us. The young man at the desk was soo nice and helpful and they had no problem facilitating a late checkout. One of the best hotels for service i have stayed in. We will be back. Thank you for an amazing experience

What an incredible gem this place is. If you can get a room with a view do it !!! It’s in the middle of everything yet it’s private enough to make you feel you’re in the middle of nowhere. You must try the award winning gelato place! The restaurants are amazing the the exploring is great. There’s a park on top by the tower. Amazing picture spot.

We had a great experience at the Sovestro. The rooms were very nice and the hotel staff was so helpful with any questions or requests. We walked to town our first night because it was too late to take the shuttle. It was quite a walk there, but much easier walk back! The breakfast served each morning was extensive and delicious….especially the orange juice….so fresh and good! Great way to start the day! This was a great home base for visiting Tuscany but really requires having a car as it is somewhat remote, which is what makes it so charming. 2 of our 3 days here were rainy so we could not take advantage of the lovely terraces and pools, but would 100% stay here again!

To drive up the mountain, a little far from San Gimignano. The breakfast was superb and there were many varieties, but there was no dinner at night, not a special property. Nice view of the hotel, overlooking San Gimignano~

We spend a relaxing holiday in Toscana. The cardinal is immersed in the green of the Tuscan hills. Near San Gimignano. Fresh and comfortable rooms. Breakfast is excellent served in the terraces in front of the rooms. Very pleasant swimming pool. A real relaxation . Thanks to the beautiful family that manages with sympathy and competence all . Monica and Leandro very sympathetic and good supported by the valuable help of Niccolo and Lorenzo . Compliments to all staff and very accurate cleaning . TOP really !

We stayed at the hotel a couple plus a little boy plus a baby. Quiet hotel in a central location. Very rich and delicious breakfast. Amazing staff, would like especially mention Antonella and Alicia who were lovely to us and especially to our little boy Daniel. Highly recommended hotel
