Tuscany - Siena - San Gimignano
Tuscany, one of Italy's most iconic and breathtaking regions, embodies the essence of Italian beauty, culture, and tradition. Nestled between the ApennineMountains and the Tyrrhenian Sea, its landscape is a mesmerizing blend of rolling hills, cypress-lined roads, sprawling vineyards, olive groves, and medieval villages perched on hilltops. The region’s natural beauty is matched by its rich history, artistic heritage, and world-renowned culinary and wine traditions.
Wine enthusiasts from around the globe flock to Tuscany for its legendary wine production. The region is the birthplace of some of the most revered wines in the world, such as Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Chianti, produced in the heart of Tuscany, is arguably the most famous, with its distinctive ruby-red color and bold flavors, while Brunello, made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes, is one of Italy’s most prestigious wines, aging gracefully for decades. Wine routes, like the Strada del Vino in the Chianti region, allow visitors to tour centuries-old wineries, sample wines, and explore charming villages along the way.
Tuscany is also a haven for lovers of art and history. Florence, the region’s capital, is a cultural mecca, often referred to as the cradle of the Renaissance. Its galleries and museums, such as the Uffizi and Accademia, house masterpieces from artists like Michelangelo, Botticelli, and Leonardo da Vinci. The iconic Florence Cathedral, with its massive dome designed by Brunelleschi, dominates the skyline, while the Ponte Vecchio, a medieval bridge lined with jewelry shops, is one of the city’s most beloved landmarks.
Siena, another jewel of Tuscany, offers a different charm with its medieval architecture and rich traditions. The Piazza del Campo, known for the Palio, a centuries-old horse race held twice a year, is considered one of the most beautiful squares in Italy. Siena’s Gothic cathedral, with its intricate black and white striped marble, is a stunning testament to medieval craftsmanship.
Further west, Pisa is home to the iconic Leaning Tower, but it also offers much more with its rich maritime history and the grandeur of the Piazza dei Miracoli. Lucca, known for its preserved Renaissance-era city walls, invites visitors to explore its quiet streets, where churches and piazzas surprise at every turn. San Gimignano, a medieval town famous for its many towers, gives visitors a glimpse of Tuscany’s feudal past and offers sweeping views over the surrounding countryside.
Tuscany’s landscapes are also dotted with thermal springs, such as the natural hot springs of Saturnia, providing a relaxing retreat after days of exploring. The coastline, too, with the Maremma region and the island of Elba, offers picturesque beaches and pristine waters, a contrast to the inland hills and vineyards.
DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS, STATE AND FINISHES
The hotel (935 m² – 10,061 ft², 21 bedrooms and 24 bathrooms) is laid over four floors in total. On the ground floor are the common areas of the facility, which include the reception area, several guest lounges, the professional kitchen with pantry and employee bathroom, two large breakfast (or restaurant) rooms, a spacious veranda (85 m²) the guest bathrooms, a private office (with independent access from outside), and a bar. Then, in a separate wing on the ground floor with separate access, are the first two bedrooms with private bathrooms. Descending to the basement a staircase leads to the historic cellars, consisting of a series of brickwork rooms with characteristic vaulted ceilings.
Going up to the second floor, via stairs and/or elevator, we reach the actual sleeping area of the hotel with thirteen bedrooms, all with private bathrooms. Finally, going further up, we find eleven more bedrooms with private bathrooms and the spacious rooftop sunbathing terrace (90 m²).
The building originally dates back to the 12th century, when it was just a watchtower. Converted into an elegant country villa over the years, the structure was entirely renovated in 2003 when the hotel opened. Wherever possible, efforts were made to maintain the charm of the original building, preserving, for example, the typical wooden beams and the beautiful historic cellars. The terracotta floors have been recreated according to the original appearance while the walls are painted in soft colors in some rooms or very bright in others, either way ensuring warm and welcoming environments.
Right next to the hotel is a cozy guesthouse (125 m² – 1,345 ft², 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms), once a barn now converted into a residence. The building is made up of a spacious living area with kitchen and three bedrooms with private bathroom (one of these accessed directly from outside).
EXTERIOR
The hotel is enriched by roughly 4.0 hectares (9.9 acres) of well-manicured park surrounded by Vernaccia vineyards. Just below the building, in a very panoramic and retired position, is the 16 × 8 m swimming pool surrounded by a terracotta-paved sunbathing area. The pool is placed in such a way that in every moment one can enjoy a stunning view of San Gimignano’s towers.
The guesthouse features its own private patio (paved with terracotta tiles), ideal for pleasant and relaxing al fresco moments.
