We stayed at Il Colto for two nights and would highly recommend this agriturismo for location alone: it is literally steps from the south gate of the city of San Gimignano. The room was large and spotlessly clean, as was the bathroom. One pleasant surprise were the well-kept gardens and grounds surrounding the inn. There were multiple tables and chairs... More

The place is very close to the town center. Our room was spotless clean and spacious, with a comfortable bed, tv and air-conditioning. The bathroom was also very clean, and there was never a shortage of hot water in the shower. In general, everything was great apart from a couple of things that may not even matter to some. First,...

We stayed at Il Colto for two nights, exploring the Chianti region by car (free parking = big plus!) during the day and enjoying San Gimigniano in the evening when most of the tourist buses had left. Our room was spotlessly clean and did not feel dated and worn-down like most of the other hotels we stayed at while in... More

Clean, comfortable room with ample-sized shower. Plenty of hot water. Good breakfast. Fantastic location only 2 minute walk from the south gate of San Gimi's walls. Free parking (which is important if you're planning a trip to San Gimi), secure, gated (owner provided a keyfob controller so we could get in at any hour). We'd stay here again.

The room was clean and cool, the bathroom was a good size, brilliant shower. This was the first place we stayed at and thought all breakfasts thereafter would be similar - homemade cake, bread and jams - sadly we were disappointed as Italians don't really do breakfast. MY only comment here would be that we had to ask for milk... More

We were pleasantly surprised to find that Il Colto was so close to the city walls of San Gimignano - just a short walk away. The host was very friendly and helpful and she had a recommendation for a restaurant to eat Pici Pasta which was the best in Italy. I don't remember the name of the restaurant but she... More

Kind if matter of fact welcome. The room was extremely clean, large, with a view over the small court yard and garden of the farm. A step away from San Gimignano city gate and yet protected from the crowds disembarking the day trip buses. I got there by bicycle, my wife joined me there by car, excellent parking space, even...

My husband and I stayed at Il Colto for one night during our visit to San Gimignano, and this was an unplanned stay where we just asked for a last minute vacancy. Anna, the owner, was very accomodating and allowed us to park in the car park way ahead of check in, whilst she prepared the room for us. The... More
