Location, location, location!
We had an amazing stay at Attico Duomo! Owners made check in easy and a private parking spot is priceless in that location. The many steps can be a challenge for some but so worth it!! Comfy beds and everything needed at a stones throw! Loved it! Grazie Silvana!

Quiet comfort in town center
Where do I start? Silvana's attic apartment was amazing. It is extremely spacious and the antique decor is comfortable and charming. The VIEW of the piazza is incredible. You can be in the middle of it all without having to leave your apartment! It is central to everything and for us, San Gimignano was a great place to center our exploration of Tuscany. Silvana was very communicative and made arrangements for her friends to drive us and our luggage to the apartment, which made checking in so easy. Look no further for the perfect stay in San Gimignano! Thank you, Silvana!

Great place - very central
In the heart of San Gimignano and such a relaxed and peaceful place to stay. Very comfortable apartment with plenty of room and it was great to look up from the square and down from the tower to our windows. Our hosts were very helpful and welcoming. San Gimignano is a lovely place to stay - take time out and enjoy the atmosphere - particularly after the day trippers have left. The queue for gelato is so much shorter after dinner.

Great
The apartment was much bigger than we imagined. The stairs were not a big deal. The managers of the apartment were very welcoming and drove us to the apartment on arrival. The free parking was invaluable and only four or five minute walk from the apartment. The apartment is situated right in town near everything. There is a large coop supermarket right outside the Giovanni gate beyond the gardens with great prices on groceries.

Warm, spacious and so comfortable. It was perfect.
We arrived by train to Poggibonsi where Silvana had made arrangements for my sister and I to be driven to San Gimignano. Our two bedroom apartment was fabulous. Attico Duomo is right in the heart of San Gimignano. Each morning we opened our wooden shutters and were looking right at Collegiata’s Church. We stayed nine nights in this dream. When your adventure takes you to Tuscany please give yourself a treat of a lifetime and stay at Attico Duomo, the XII century medical palace.

A RETURN VISIT
This was our second time staying at the Attico Duomo apartment. We chose to return because the apartment is lovely, quiet and well appointed. It is located in the historic center of San Gimignano overlooking one of the major piazzas. Having a designated parking space just outside the city walls is invaluable, and on top of that there is a washing machine in the apartment so that you can catch up on your laundry. Be prepared for the 59 steps to the apartment, but it is well worth the climb to be able to live like a local while you stay in one of the most charming hill towns in Tuscany. The property owners are prompt with their responses and very helpful regarding the booking of the apartment. The keyholder speaks very little English, buy we managed to communicate well enough to get comfortably settled in. Thank you Silvana and Piergiorgio for another wonderful stay in your lovely apartment!

Amazing
This is an amazing apartment. From the location - perfect; to the amenities - everything you might need ; to the hosts and check in - complete. Location was unbelievable across from the duomo on the main piazza looking down from the 3 rd floor . Listening to the church bells was magical. Most amazing was the use of the free parking area behind Fernanda's house.
We truly enjoyed San G and staying this wonderful town and apartment
If you are staying in San G somewhere besides this apartment you are probably in the wrong place and somewhere not nearly as wonderful.
We will return next year and would stay no where else
Thank you Silvana

CHARMING TOWER APARTMENT IN BEST LOCATION IN BEST TUSCAN HILL TOWN
Silvania did a fantastic job preparing us for our visit and was a gracious hostess throughout. We were met by the caretakers who were charming and helpful. It is a spacious apartment with an amazing view of the main square. It has every thing you could need. We attended the cooking class and met the entire beautiful family. I could not have imagined a better experience. Yes, there are stairs, but how else are you going to access a Medieval tower?

A week in San gimignano
The apartment was perfect. Great location, furnishing where amazing and the help and assistance from the owner was awesome. She went out of her way to help with guidance as we didn't know the area.
I would definitely recommend to anyone.
Only one point to anyone who has problems with stairs. It is on the third floor and there are plenty so you have to be prepared. It was hard work for my Mother who we took with us.

Beautiful Apartment in Tuscany
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in this lovely apartment in the center of San Gimignano. The views of the Piazza Duomo and the surrounding towers were absolutely fantastic and provided marvelous photo points. The apartment is very large, comfortable and spotless. It was very well decorated and although it has been completely modernized the ancient exposed brick has the feel and warmth of this medieval village. Silvana was extremely helpful with touring suggestions and her representative, Fernanda, was very welcoming. I love this place and will miss it when I return home. The parking spot is an unbelievable added convenience and I was able to tour much of Tuscany and make incredible memories. I highly recommend this charming apartment and hope to return one day.

A wonderful holiday in Tuscany
Suberb location in the centre of San Gimignano with marvellous views from the sitting room overlooking Piazza Duomo. The apartment was well appointed and extremely clean, it felt more like a home than a holiday let with many pictures and decorative items adorning the walls. The apartment has been sympathetically and cleverly modernised maintaining a typical Tuscan feel, all furnishings are of a good quality and extremely tasteful.
The location is ideally situated as a base to explore Siena, Florence, Voltera, Lucca, Pisa and many other villages within the surrounding beautiful countryside.
A car is not really necassary as the public transport is excellent, bus timetables are available from the very helpful Tourist Information Office which is a two minute walk across the Piazza from the apartment.
All communication with the owner via email was superb with helpful and very prompt response.
We will definately be returning to stay in this beautiful apartment.

Fantastic Place, unforgettable views!
Location is simply extraordinary, views of Piazza del Duomo (Cathedral square) from living room are unparalleled (and there are other interesting views too). Apartment is comfortable, spacious, bright and well equipped, and decoration/furniture keep the charm of the fabulous setting. Communication with owners and person receiving us was impeccable (and very friendly). The apartment comes with a parking spot about 200-300 meters away, which is very secure. This is a big plus (tip, if you do not pack light leave stuff you won't use in the car, the "attico" is not for 29-inch luggage!). Overall, a wonderful place at a very reasonable price; we'll be back!!!!

Beautiful Apartment in a Great Location
Attico Duomo proved to be everything that was promised in the advertisements for the apartment. It was in a fantastic location in the heart of San Gimignano across from the Duomo. The two bedroom apartment was very comfortable with furnishings that enhanced the Tuscan experience and history. It was exceptionally clean with a fully equipped kitchen, two modern bathrooms, and laundry facilities. The Wi-Fi and parking proved to be an added value option that contributed to our overall satisfaction and comfort. Since we cooked a number of our meals at the apartment, we were pleased that it was fully equipped with kitchen utensils, dishware, and cutlery. Overall, this was a great experience in a unique apartment rich with history and local culture.

A wonderful apartment
My wife and I stayed here for a week. The apartment is terrific. It is right at the center of the small town, with a view of the Piazza Duomo out the sitting room window. Definitely worth the climb of about 60 steps. The building dates from the 1300s, and has a great deal of character. Good kitchen facilities (but be warned that there are virtually no food items, not even pepper; we had to buy olive oil and balsamic vinegar for our salads, and the refrigerator is only half size). Very spacious dining area. Master bedroom was fine, as was main bathroom. Having a washer was a plus, though we had to buy laundry soap and our first attempt at washing was unsuccessful because we turned the dial to the wrong setting -- turn it to B, not to H. Unfortunately we were not able to get an internet connection even though the VRBO posting said there was wireless. After several email messages the owner finally came to the apartment and agreed there was a problem, which we hope got fixed. All in all, we had a great time here and would definitely recommend the apartment to others who want to spend time in San Gimignano. And we rave about the restaurant Cum Quibus, where we ate dinner 3 times during the week (definitely reserve, which you can do via email).

I Love This Apartment!
I have just booked the beautiful Attico Duomo for the 3rd consecutive year.
This lovely apartment is exactly as it appears in the photos. Everytime I go there it is immaculately clean and perfectly maintained. The apartment is fully loaded with everything you could possibly want or need. You can prepare meals in the kitchen or bring in enough food for a feast, and everything you need is on hand.
We love to shop at the Pam superstore in nearby Poggibonsi and the Thursday morning San Gimignano market, and prepare some meals at home, but also love to eat out at the fabulous restaurants in San Gimignano.
Fernanda and Patrizia, the two ladies who take care of the apartment are absolutely delightful and endlessly helpful. The owner, Silvana is just wonderful, and over the course of my vacations spent there has become a lifetime friend.
The apartment comes with parking space, making it ideal for anyone who likes to drive around and explore Tuscany. We also love to drive down the hill to Certaldo and take the train in to Florence or anywhere we don't feel like driving to that day.
San Gimignano is the perfect town to base a vacation from and Attico Domo is just the loveliest, most wonderful place to stay.
Attico Duomo has become our home away from home, and we now plan our Italian vacations around the availability of the apartment.
I absolutely recommend staying here, your experience will be wonderful!
