Dated
We stayed in a two bedroom apartment. Shower access painfully tight. Some lights in the lounge flicker for a long time if turned off and on again. light globes missing in range hood. The microwave oven power cord runs over the induction cooker to wall socket. The smallest tv ever is provided. No tea or coffee. Host helpful in giving our friends a lift with their bags, and recommendations for eating out. Location is fine. Apartment is clean.

This hotel has several rooms and apartments, some nicer and bigger than others. The pictures on Expedia show many different rooms, so it wasn’t that obvious what ours looked like from the photos. As it turned out, the room did have everything that was promised in terms of beds and amenities, but it was smaller and simpler than we expected from the photos. The location was wonderful, on a very quiet street but only a 2 minute walk from the main street through town. Our room was not very sound proof. It wasn’t a problem because the street was so quiet and our neighbors were not loud, but we could hear a pin drop in the room upstairs.

NO Place probably has on-site prkg including here.
The location was spectacular. The advertisement states "free parking" which is really far away, and completely full. We had to park a bit away and pay, and to get that spot required parking illegally at the hotel and then moving it later after dinner to P3. For an ancient town, the accommodations were great, with two bedrooms and two baths, plus a small kitchen. We could have stayed there a month! San Gimignano is our favorite town, so we would love to come back.

The location is great since you can walk into the old centre, everything is very close. The room was not at all like the photo - no old ceiling beams, just a regular room. It was a bit noisy with other people using the common kitchen area at all hours.

Friendly and helpful check in - you call ahead and you are met at the hotel. After check in they lead you to free parking areas. The room and kitchen were good but the one major criticism was the sloping ceiling. I hit my head really hard on the low beams which marred my view of the room. Tea/coffee making was available but no breakfast.

Great Base to Explore the Medieval Town from
There were 4 of us cycling the via Francigena with San Gimignano as a stop on our way to Rome. We checked in quickly and were also able to securely store our bikes separately. We had great accommodations for the 4 of us with a separate kitchen and dining room. Awesome views of the medieval town and the Tuscan hills from our windows did not disappoint. The town also exceeded expectations and I would recommend a stop here to anyone.

We wish we chose somewhere else to stay
If you rely on internet while traveling (which we do, heavily, for maps and for restaurant reviews and traveller tips), avoid this unit. The wifi internet was so impossibly slow that sometimes we couldn't even load a single webpage. So of course we had to cancel our scheduled VOIP phone call that we had with a client, and then even reaching the client to cancel was difficult (since pages wouldn't load). Donna Nobile management said they would "reset" the internet, but they didn't elaborate, didn't fix it, and didn't follow up to see if everything was ok. As for the room, it was smoky (disgusting!) because people in nearby rooms all around were smoking. This may or may not be the fault of Donna Nobile but is something to keep in mind because we ended up coughing. The windows were not covered very well, so if you prefer darkness for sleeping, it's not great. I hit my head a couple times on the low ceiling beams in the room, and for the rest of the visit needed to be paranoid about avoiding them. The AC wasn't great and made sleeping difficult. There is a funky entrance-way that has many tiny doors and requires you to carry 3-4 keys with you so that you can unlock the many doors, and you don't get multiple copies of the key, so your whole group needs to stay together or coordinate. Old ratty discolored towels. Missing hairdryer. Surprise maid service when instead we would have preferred privacy of “do not disturb”. Bad communication. Took forever to meet for checkin.

MI sorry that the Internet connection is not working well that day, normally we have no problems, but we will try to strengthen them. our restaurant is at the side, while others are at 100m. Perhaps you missed the city. conumque will try next time to give more information to our customers

The owner couples were extremely friendly and helpful, they waited for us until very late and let us check out late at noon on the other day. The room is very clean and comfortable, the decoration of the room is lovely and the location is quiet, it left me a very good impression to this small old town.

Most enjoyable trip in Italy.
Hotel was on the "outskirts" of the small and beautiful San Gimignano. A little more walk will bring u there. Host, Rosetta was very helpful and friendly. She suggested a few areas which we could go to, thereby cutting a lot of time we might have wasted. Restaurants she recommended and a few sights we could go to. She even suggested she could call her anutime when we do need help !

wonderful stay at donna nobile
perfect location for a 2-night stay for me and my wife in San Gimignano. tucked away just off the main streets, but with very easy walk to all. bed and room overall were very comfortable. bathroom was small but did it's job. communal kitchen had a nice set up -- not much breakfast but excellent espresso makings. and they showed us where to park for free just outside the city, which made things very easy (and more affordable). and a 10% discount for restaurant peruca, just around the corner, which was our favorite meal! would definitely return here.

A taste of Tuscany
Cozy spot within the walls of San G. Good location. Stayed there 4 nights so the coziness ran its course a bit. Shower stall was very small as well as our room. There are more spacious rooms in this building. The hot water heater went out as soon as we arrived but Massi had it taken care of immediately within a couple hours and was very helpful and available during our stay. Generally speaking, its what I expected to get in a midevil town and the experience was great. San G is a great hub for touring the rest of Tuscany. The bus stop was a 7 minute walk and easy to get to Florence, Siena, Pisa, etc within an hour or so. San G had great food, gelato, shopping and of course historical sites. Its smaller than some of the touted Tuscan cities like Florence and Siena but the pace, ability to navigate was much better than trying to shop in the other towns and the selection of goods was outstanding. The weds open market was a lot of fun to explore.

Great experience in San Gimignano
A wonderful old apartment with a few rental rooms. Shared kitchen. Room is very small, but nice nevertheless. Cute bathroom. Right in the middle of the old city. The best part is the owner, who did not speak much English, but went out of his way to help in any way and made sure we had all the information we need. He helped us unload the luggage, found us a space to park a car, recommended places to eat etc. It was great.

Nicht zu empfehlen!!! Irreführender Beschreibung auf Expedia!! Sehr inkompetenter, ungeduldiger und unfreundlicher Gastgeber. KEIN PARKPLATZ, KEIN Parkmöglchkeit. Der Gastgeber kam geeilt an und machte Check In und alles in Eile. Er führte parallel Telefonate und konnte nur floskeln in Englisch. Auch wenn ich ihm darauf aufmerksam machte dass wir Ihm nicht verstehen redete er Italienisch weiter. Um fair zu sein muss ich noch sagen dass, die Zimmer in Ordnung waren. Diese sind sauber, schön, kühl. Die lage ist sehr gut. Es liegt praktisch in der Innenstadt wenige Schritte von der Trubel entfernt, somit auch ruhig. Uns war es wichtig ein Parkplatz in der Nähe zu haben, deshalb haben wir diesen Unterkunft gewählt. Nach der Ankunft stellte es sich heraus , dass weder zu dem Unterkunft gehörend noch Öffentlich Parkplätze in unmittelbarer Nähe vorhanden sind. Der nächste Parkplatz ist Kostenpflichtig (ca. 15 Euro/Tag) , liegt in Fußläufiger Entfernung ca. 10 Min. Entfernt. Wir hatten Glück, weil wir noch ein Kostenfreier Parkplatz gefunden haben. Dies liegt noch weiter Entfernt. Zum ausladen des Gepäcks ist schon ein kurzer Halt vor der Unterkunft möglich. Auch hier Vorsicht, Google Maps führte uns durch der Menschenmenge des Altstadtes durch. Ich kann diese Unterkunft wegen der irreführender, aus meiner Sicht unehrlicher Beschreibung, wegen unfreundlichkeit und fehlender Parkplatz nicht weiterempfehlen. Die Entscheidung bleibt jedem überlassen. Ich hoffe meine Meinun

In centro storico a San Gimignano, quindi non si può parcheggiare ma si può arrivare lì davanti per scarico e carico bagagli. La stanza (la mia la #7) è spaziosa, silenziosa. Da sapere (per non avere sorprese) che il bagno è diviso in 2 piccoli spazi: da una parte w.c. e lavandino in vano con finestra, da un'altra parte la doccia ed il bidet, in vano cieco. Non c'è la colazione.
