Where To Stay in San Gimignano, Tuscany in 2023

Sean Finelli Last Updated: March 1, 2023

San Gimignano is one of those iconic destinations that’s small but frequented by thousands of visitors each year. If you are considering spending some time there then you’ve come to the right place! Check out where to stay in San Gimignano.


Pro Tip: Planning what to do on your trip to Tuscany? Bookmark this post in your browser so you can easily find it when you need it. Check out our guide to Tuscany for more planning resources, our best Florence and Tuscany tours for a memorable trip, and how to plan a day of wine tasting in Tuscany.

The Best Hotel and Places to Stay in San Gimignano in Tuscany

Major Italian cities are classified by the city limits, which are the geographic borders of the city, and by the historical center (centro storico), which is the area you are likely to visit. Rome, for example, is 10 times the size of Paris in terms of its geographic borders and would take over 7 hours to walk from one side to the other. In contrast, the historical center would take 90 minutes to walk across.

The historical center of San Gimignano will only take you 11 minutes to walk across which makes it a very quaint city to visit with almost no vehicle traffic. The big draw is the views and nearby vineyards which is definitely something you will want to plan on seeing. We divided this article into two sections:

  • San Gimignano hotels and apartments
  • Agritourism, B&Bs, and vineyards near San Gimignano

Our Partnership with Booking.com. If you like our content, please book by clicking on our Booking.com links. The price is the same for you and we get a small commission that helps support our blog. We’ve partnered with Booking.com because they have the most options, great prices, and a solid loyalty program. Just about every hotel is on Booking so our recommendations are not incentivized.

Best Hotels & Apartments in San Gimignano

San Gimignano is such a small city that you can easily choose your accommodation based on the two classifications; in the town (centro storico) and in the countryside. Find the centro storico options below and the countryside & vineyard options further down.

€€ | Centro Storico | Apartment | Terrace!

Great 1000 square foot apartment with 1 bedroom, a couple of pull-out couches, and two bathrooms. The best part is the terrace which is a big factor for me when renting an apartment.
