This place was great.

This place is amazing! The views are spectacular. The room was perfect and the grounds are exactly what you’d expect for Tuscany. The owner is on hand at all times and is very friendly and accommodating. Our flight was delayed and we didn’t get in until midnight. He stayed up for us and talked us through the directions there. You do need a car if you’re staying here since there is no public transportation.

The property was beautiful with vistas to match. We found the bed extremely uncomfortable making it difficult to rest at night. The breakfast provided I felt was only adequate. The beauty of the property makes up for the bed

This is an amazing old villa with all the charm in the world. Our host was extremely friendly and helpful. It is clear that he has out a lot of love and effort into his property. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend it to any travelers.

Very charming and rustic property. It's not modernly fancy, but if that is what you are coming to Tuscany for, you are in the wrong place. The owner is very welcoming and helpful too.

Beautiful view, nice pool, good breakfast. Room was decent size with no view. Bed was a bit hard, shower was small but great water pressure n good towels. You need a car to get to town but nice that property was high up on mountain with a beautiful view. Great location if u want to drive to Siena or Florence both are about 45-60 min away. We enjoyed our stay.

The property was nice with great views of the Tuscan hills and of the town. Breakfast was average, the pool was quite nice, there was no WiFi reception in the rooms. It’s a 40 minute walk into town to get dinner cause they don’t serve any at the villa. So make sure you have a car. San Gimignano is lovely.

Gorgeous location. Alessandro’s expertise shines throughout il Casale del Cotone. The grounds and interior and exterior are kept immaculate. Area and location provide panoramic Tuscan views and close proximity to San Gimignano. Strongly recommend vehicle for convenient transport to nearby points of interest.

This property has two apartments as well as rooms. We hired both apartments for Grandparents and family with a baby. They worked very well for us. Breakfast was provided. It's within view of St Gimignano. There are many restaurants around the area and it's close to wineries and other beautiful towns. The grounds are lovely. It could be improved with nice wine glasses and good tea!

I would give this propert a 4.5 out of 5. The only turn-off was the cost of the dinner. Upon arrival we were offered to stay for dinner the following night. It was positioned as an invitation and were not told that it would cost us $70 euro. Had we known, we would have declined. It’s quite steep for what you can get at restaurants in the immediate area. We had a bit of a shock when we checked out a few days later and were given the dinner bill. We felt it was a bit sly, which is unfortunate given we had such a great time and enjoyed everything while we were there. Otherwise it’s a great location within quick driving distance to Towns and vineyards. The property itself has stunning views and a (cold) refreshing pool. Breakfast is the same basic options you get at any other hotel. Just ask them to disclose the cost of dinner and what it includes before agreeing to such a charming disceptive “invitation “.

We love the country setting of the hotel which is surrounded by vineyards. Swimming pool is great, not many people in this small resort, and the view is fantastic. Breakfast selection is great.

Beautiful property with a great pool in the Tuscan country side. Close to San Gimignano and surrounding towns. Excellent location and property. Would definitely recommend. Only concern was the A\C was not turned on for the season yet and the in house suppers we heard such rave reviews about only happened once/Twice a week which we unfortunately missed. I’m sure both are just a function of the time of year. Great place overall!

A very nice, quiet, comfortable and hospitable place to stay. Everything was fantastic.. almost everything. I highly recommend booking for dinner on the Sunday or Thursday usually (depending on how many guests are staying at the Inn). The only fault I can say is the beds are ok for comfort. This is the only thing I think that needs to be improved, including the pillows. Other than that.... STAY HERE. If my wife and I come to Tuscany, we will be ;)

The grounds are well kept and the views are beautiful. The room was good except the bed and pillows could have been more comfortable. The breakfast was very good. Good variety of food. Location is just a few minutes to San Gimignano.

Il Casilo del Catone was a great surprise for me and my wife. This place is located in a very scenic and privileged are in the Tuscan region, and about 2 miles from the gates of San Gimignano. Alessandro is a great host, very attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel welcomed. We highly recommed Il Casilo.

We stayed in this B&B while exploring Tuscany by car. We drove to nearby cities and towns including San Gimignano, Volterra, Siena and Florence. We visited 5 wineries and 2 museums and the Duomo in Siena. We hope to return soon.

Set on the outskirts of San Gimignano, this is a gem of a B&B. It offers tranquility away from the nearby frenetic pace of the visiting hordes. The Martelli brothers run this place just right, friendly and helpful yet unobtrusive.

This hotel was the high light of our trip in Tuscany. The location could not have been better with breathtaking views on the Tuscany landscape. It is a small rural hotel a stone throw away from San Gimignano an easy day trip distance from Sienna and Florence in the heart of Tuscany. The owner Alex was a superb host and treated us one night and some other guest to a home cooked Tuscany meal.( it does not have a restaurant but serves good breakfast and has a kitchen.) The food was outstanding. The room and bathroom was large very clean with stone floors. It has plenty of car parking.This stay(3 nights) could not have been better.

This hotel was perfect the photos do not do it justice. Alesandro works so hard to make it a great stay. The meals were fantastic in the evening. Beautiful setting, lovely and quiet a perfect retreat. The only thing I would say is you need a car, they do breakfast and an evening meal every other evening but for lunch you need to go out and our taxis did add up as it's €15 just to get into san gimigiano! This however has nothing to do with this fantastic hotel which I would not hesitate to recommend.

This is a peaceful beautiful setting for a stay in the San Gimignano area. Alessandro had created a beautiful property with a pool overlooking the countryside. His dinners shouldn't be missed. What fun! Our room was a little small so ask for a larger room when booking. Don't hesitate to book this B&B.
5.0
After a shaky welcome because Owner Alessandro had not opened our email advising of late arrival we settled into a fantastic 3 days at il Casale. The view in the morning from our room when we had opened our shutters was stunning. The room was beautiful. Breakfast which was fine was served on the terrace. Immaculate grounds and the perfect setting for a romantic break. Pool fab and the feast that Alessandro prepared and served was fantastic complete with fresh local produce served with delicious Chianti!!! You must put aside 4 hours for this experience! Unique break and highly recommended- we will be back. WARNING -- ignore map that Expedia provide as it takes you to wrong hotel? Sat nav had major problems so be warned. The area is simply stunning and so relaxing.
