Hotel Sovestro

THIS IS THE PLACE WHERE YOU CAN FEEL THE REALITY OF ITALY. I RECOMMEND

Very peaceful. Excellent location - easy access to San Gimignano and perfect for trips to some wonderful Tuscan villages and towns. Friendly and helpful staff, good quality buffet breakfast, comfortable rooms and great shower (with soap etc. provided). The restaurant serves very good food.

As described and close to San Gimignano. On site restaurant was a bonus and food abd service was excellent.

We really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful grounds with a very nice poo, so relaxing! Staff very friendly, free shuttle to & from San G. There is a back road you can walk, going is a lot harder than coming back. Towels for the pool available at the front desk. The whole place is super clean! Breakfast is a feast, indoor or outdoor seating with a view. We celebrated our anniversary at their 5 star restaurant, which was excellent and not that expensive. Highly recommend making reservations a head of time, well worth it. Our room was nice size with a patio, bathroom was good size. Very clean! Would definitely stay again!

Truly enjoyed our stay. Great location within walking distance to San Gimignano. Great views! The staff was great and attentive, good views of the Tuscan countryside. Great on-site restaurant! Loved it!

We were lucky enough to stay for 4 nights at the end of August. What a find, our third trip to San Gimignano although we loved the other places we’ve stayed this hotel has gone straight to No.1 It is a little out of town but don’t let that put you off, we’d never walked down the Via Vecchia on previous trips. … wow ! What a photo opportunity of San Gimignano. The hotel provides a shuttle, a quick 5 min drive up to the town, as most have mentioned in other reviews it is easier to walk back.. the via Vecchia is a great Road / path to walk with photo opportunities along the way, need a torch in the evenings but very little traffic and feels safe. The Hotel, I echo the reviews that it is immaculate, the maids clean everyday, rooms and all parts of the hotel until early afternoon. Also groundsman and pool man. All the staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, this family owned hotel has got the right balance of a medium size hotel whilst maintaining a welcoming, personal service. Restaurant- we’re lucky to visit Italy at least once a year, in 15 years this is the best breakfast in Italy, buffet is plentiful, the best coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice. I’m gluten free and didn’t miss out, they make their own gluten free bread rolls which were the best I’ve tasted. We ate in the restaurant one night, delicious home cooked Tuscan cuisine, again my gluten free needs were accommodated without question. The grounds, a little mini oasis amongst the olive and cypress trees, two lovely pool areas. We had room 55 on the countryside side of the hotel and it was stunning come rain or shine. Finally we arranged through the hotel for my husband to have a guided cycle ride through Chianti with ex professional cyclist, Daniele Righi. If you’re a keen cyclist book him, my husband loved it, best experience. When we’re next in San Gimignano we will be booking Hotel Sovestro.

The hotel is obviously not sold out and yet the staff claim it was sold out and that late checkout would not be possible. Why end the client stay this way? Leave a bad taste in the mouth when it would be so easily to accommodate the customer. There are so many unused rooms in this large complex. Pity.

We stayed at Hotel Sovestro for 4 nights in a double room with Patio and we hope to return one day in soon. The Hotel is absolutely beautiful. This was our first time in Tuscany and Hotel Sovestro provided us with the perfect Tuscan Experience. Even driving along the entrance to the hotel was magnificent enough. The hotel grounds were beautiful and pool was stunning. We went in the middle of July and we felt like we had the hotel to ourselves. Our room had fantastic air conditioning and was spotlessly clean. The hotel also provided us with a wonderful breakfast each morning and we loved the fresh orange juice machine. I would like to say a massive thank you to Laura for helping with any questions I had pre stay and for being so lovely during our stay. We look forward to our next visit.
