We had an exceptional stay at Residenza d’Epoca Palazzo Buonaccorsi. Set within a beautifully preserved 12th-century palace, the hotel is full of history, charm and authentic Tuscan character. From the moment you step inside, you feel immersed in the atmosphere of medieval San Gimignano.

Our room overlooked the beautiful cobbled streets of the old town, and waking up to those breathtaking views each morning was unforgettable. The location is perfect for exploring everything on foot while enjoying the peaceful atmosphere.

Breakfast was one of the highlights of our stay. It was beautifully presented in a charming historic dining room and offered a wonderful selection of fresh fruit, local cheeses and cured meats, homemade cakes and pastries, eggs, bruschetta, cereals and excellent Italian coffee. Everything was fresh, high quality and prepared with care.

The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Their recommendations for local restaurants were excellent, and every place they suggested turned out to be fantastic.

If you’re looking for an authentic Tuscan experience in a historic building with wonderful hospitality, delicious breakfast and an unbeatable location, this is the perfect place to stay. We would happily return and highly recommend it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Residenza Bonacorsi, a charming, historic stay right in the heart of San Gimignano. Walkable, picturesque, and uncrowded, with breathtaking views from the tower. The staff felt like family, and the food was a highlight, especially the croissants, espresso, and that unforgettable gelato nearby. A perfect blend of history, warmth, and beauty.

This was a lovely place to stay and the owner and staff were extremely friendly, helpful, and welcoming. We loved the little parlor where you can enjoy a cup of tea before bed. There is a very nice patio to sit out on. When showering, the bathroom floor gets wet because there's just a drain in the floor with only a curtain separating the shower from the rest of the bathroom, but at least it was easy to get in and out of without having to climb into a slippery tub like some other places we stayed. This place has character, is clean, and we enjoyed it.

Book here while in Tuscany

Residenza d'Epoca Palazzo Buonaccorsi is in an amazing location near the center of town. Quick walks to panoramic locations, restaurants and shops. Our hostess, Marzia, allowed us to store our bags while we waited for check in time to approach. She provided us with a map and many recommendations for dining upon check in and pointed out locations to take pictures. The hotel has a hidden patio to enjoy some wine and just relax in the evenings. The best part of our stay was the breakfast. Marzia and her crew delighted us with an amazing breakfast spread of various fresh cheeses, bread, fruit and cereal. As well as many Italian coffee options.

Our host was exceptional! Usually she was on the premise but if not was easy to contact with any questions. She came in early for our early check in! Had plenty of recommendations not only about San Gimignano but surrounding towns. She made us a reservation for New Year's Eve having to call several to get us a spot!
The location was perfect as it was close to everything, especially the unloading area!
Although a breakfast was not available we were able to get a discount at the recommended bar which was very close.
We would say there again in a heartbeat! Thanks for a great stay.

I recently stayed at this hotel and was thoroughly disappointed by the condition of my room. From the moment I walked in, there was a strong, musty smell that I initially tried to ignore, but it became overwhelming. The room itself felt incredibly outdated, with worn furniture.

For the price, I expected a much higher standard of comfort and upkeep. Unfortunately, this hotel did not deliver on any of those fronts. I would not recommend staying here unless significant improvements are made. There are definitely better options in the area.

Location of the hotel is perfect, right in the middle of everything so short walk to all restaurants and wine bars. As this is original palace the room was extremely dark, even with all of the lights on , which didn’t feel very welcoming when we wanted to spend few hours relaxing and reading for example. It would also be really nice to have a kettle in the room or common areas .

On the main road however it was lacking in normal comforts. There was no soap in the room, no top sheet on the bed, the free parking was a long ways away outside the town walls so not convenient, check-in was chaotic and the beds weren’t very comfortable. Next time I would stay outside the town and park where I had to park this time anyways.

Great residence in San Gim

Fabulous place to stay - right on the Via Francigena - the path that Catholic pilgrims took in the past centuries on their pilgrimages to Rome. The hostess - Marisia - is an absolutely wonderful person, a descendant of the historic family that built this palace, and is leading the effort to restore this palace based on the earnings from the hotel. So if San Gim is in your itinerary, please contact Marisia directly for a booking, and stay at this place. Absolutely charming.

I enjoyed this B & B more than my husband. It is VERY old - dating to the 12th century!! The only thing he had a problem with was the bathroom. The shower and sink were in the same space so it was impossible to take a shower without getting everything at the sink wet. Other than that, it was very comfy. It is located within the walls of the beautiful town of San Gimignano. It's true that its best after the tourist groups leave. Ask the staff for recommendations for resturants. We enjoyed all of them!

I usually like staying in hostels that are housed in renovated old townhouses. This time it was a disaster. There was no breakfast, despite it being advertised, with the excuse that the dining room where it is served “was too cold”, which in February is hardly surprising. They gave us a voucher with a “discount” for the bar on the corner. “Free parking available” was also a lie. These were council car parks, outside the city walls and very few in number, so they were always full. We used the council’s pay-and-display car park, 300 metres away, the nearest one. In other words, NO PARKING.
Finally, the heating in the room we stayed in didn’t work. I spoke to the manager via WhatsApp countless times, and she always replied that he would ring. HE NEVER RANG. The room was 17 degrees and stayed that way. My wife fell ill. ABSURD. As the manager only ever complained about money, we reckon she was simply skimping on the heating, just as she was in the breakfast room. TERRIBLE. THE PALAZZO’S ADVERTISING DECEIVES CUSTOMERS.

Nossa experiência em San Gimignano foi maravilhosa. A cidade por si só já é incrível, mas a hospedagem contribuiu muito para isso. Fomos recebidos com muitas dicas úteis sobre o que fazer, onde comer e como aproveitar melhor a região — além de descontos especiais por estarmos hospedados, o que foi um diferencial super bem-vindo.

A localização do espaço é excelente: perto dos pontos principais, tornando tudo muito prático e permitindo explorar a cidade a pé com facilidade. O ambiente é acolhedor, organizado e atendeu perfeitamente ao que precisávamos.

Um ponto importante para futuros hóspedes: o banheiro é compartilhado(a depender da seleção do quarto), mas estava sempre limpo, confortável e bem equipado. Apesar de ser compartilhado, não tivemos qualquer problema durante a estadia.

No geral, tivemos uma experiência ótima e recomendamos muito!
