"Everything bout Hotel Sovestro was perfect. It's easy to get to, parking is right in front, we were greeted by staff (family owners!), our room had a patio onto the large and pleasant pool area, there is a bar with a very friendly and helpful bar owner, a Michelin star restaurant where the matriarch of the family prepares amazing dinners (wait until you see the breakfast buffet). Again, EVERYTHING about the hotel is top notch (location, staff, amenities, cleanliness, furnishings, the bed, the towels, etc). AND! the family has their own winery across the street where you can have wine tastings from delicious wines they create from their own grapes on their property. The value of a stay at this property is amazing. The patriarch of the family drives a shuttle bus to San Gimignano (2 km distant) every couple of hours: it is one of the best preserved medieval fortress towns in all of Italy. We walked back on a nearly deserted country road, view of San Gimignano all the way, one of the best things we did during our stay. Be sure and ask the way to walk back to Hotel Sovestro. This lodging has our highest of all ratings!"

"This is a wonderful hotel for a stay in Tuscany. The rooms are clean, spacious, and very comfortable. Breakfast offers a great variety of options, making it a perfect start to the day. The location is also convenient—about 45 minutes to Florence, an hour to Pienza and Montepulciano, and roughly 25 minutes to Siena. The only drawback is that the walls are quite thin, so noise from the neighboring room can be easily heard."

"This is my second stay and everything is just as prefect as it was."

"Great sty ! All was fantastic."

"Convenient stay between Pisa and Firenze. Easy to walk to Empoli train station for day trips to both cities. Hotel is clean and quiet despite being on a main road. Breakfast is good and service is fast. Concierge were very helpful. "

"Nice place, staff very responsive, good food and great service."

"The balcony views were amazing. Restaurant and bar on site was pretty good and convenient. Staff was helpful. The rooms were nicely decorated and modern. Location was perfect, right in the middle of town which made everything walkable."

"Hotel is right in the center of Gimignano. The staff were nice and able to check in early at 12:30pm. The room is large, clean, and quiet. The shower flow is very good but the tub is leaking a lot. Nearest parking lot is 600 meters away in P2 - parking lot is open and cost 15 euros per day. No in and out privilege. I would love to come back and stay here again."

"Breakfast was fresh and outstanding. Parking very easy. "
