The hotel is located at the most central place in breathtaking San Gimignano, Piazza de la Cisterna. Our room had a view towards both the piazza and the valley, which was wonderful. But that was about it. The hotel was most probably last refurbished around the 80s. The room, decent in size, was - both - very poorly decorated, and... More

Set in the most picturesque square in one of the prettiest villages in Italy. We arrived late, and the rooms we were allocated were possibly the only ones left. Ours was spacious, clean and overlooked the square. The bathroom was adequate. The breakfast room was delightful with magnificent views, the town square was absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately our experience with the... More

Great location in the square. We parked in one of the parking lots which is closs to an elevator that takes you into town and walked with our luggage to the hotel.We did not care for the staff as they were not too responsive or helpful. Staff is more interested in facebook or playing on the computer. When we approached... More

The views across the valley from our balcony made this place - full stop. I think we had the most expensive room (110€) so everyone may not get such a vista but in addition then room was spot on, location perfect and staff ultra helpful. More

My husband and I stayed in various hotels and villas in San Gimignano over 7 nights. We didn't pre-book our accomodation and were lucky to secure one night at La Cisterna Hotel. This was by far the best accomodation we had during the whole week. We were offered the choice of three rooms and were given the keys to choose... More

Invited to a wedding in the beautiful Collegiate church in San G, we opted for four days in Hotel La Cisterna which is central and we had no wish to hire a car. When we booked through Thomas Cook, the only room available was a four bedded room at 160 euros, so we winced but booked it all the same.... More

The room was old but very clean & very well appointed. There is an airconditioner but it took a long time to cool the room. It was located in the Piazza & central to everything. The bathroom was huge. Staff are very helpful & offers free Internet. More

Great facility, Great rooms and view, mediocre food at best and a very, very, very Grumpy restaurant manager. (middle age man with grey hair and glasses who is one of the owner). The desires or likings of his guest are far from being as important as the newspaper morning news........ Thank god the servers and some of the other staff... More

My boyfriend, Dave, and I, Natash, a visited the unforgettable town of San Gimignano in Tuscany for 4 days during our Italian adventure. We chose San Gimignano as the center point for our tour of Tuscan’s Chianti Region. We read so much about this town, and expected a lot, but nothing compared to the amazing reality. This has to be...

Very nice rooms, good breakfast included, air conditioning was working, internet was available at a reasonable price per day. This hotel is right in the heart of town. Lots of tourists during the day, many free concerts in the evening. We requested and received twin beds. We were without a car and only able to book 1 tour in Tuscany.... More
