RE-Versiliana

10/10 Excellent

"Nice, stylish, recently renovated hotel. I feel I got a good deal for 1 night. Recommended."

Hotel Pisa Tower

8/10 Good

"The room was on the smaller side, but as expected. It had all the essentials: air conditioning, a safe, coffee-making facilities, a fridge, a hairdryer, and a TV. The location was great—just before the entrance to the main square, with a local pastry shop right around the corner. However, two things would have made the stay much better: the bed and the room's sound insulation. The bed was very creaky and the mattress was uncomfortable, so every time someone turned over, you woke up. Another downside was the noise from both the street and inside the hotel; the cleaners tended to chat right outside the room door starting from 7:00 AM. You can also hear all the guests trying to open their rooms at the middle of the night with quite old-school metal keys"

Versilia Lido | UNA Esperienze

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was amazing. My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary and we could not have been happier with our experience. The front desk staff were absolutely fantastic. They were helpful, friendly, kind and generous with their time. The surrounding area around the hotel was manicured, the pool was beautiful and roof top restaurant is a must see. Thank you for a lovely time and making our anniversary something we will not forget."

Sina Astor

8/10 Good

"The Annexe room was spacious and comfortable and kept clean. There were plenty of clean towels and gowns and slippers were provided. The staff were all very helpful and pleasant. Breakfast was good with choices from the buffet or al la carte. The hotel is well located on the strip opposite the beach and with the pine forest behind and within easy reach of the train station. We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel Sin Astor."

AC Hotel Pisa by Marriott

8/10 Good

"Compared with hotels in Asia, the amenities here are relatively basic, as slippers, toothbrushes, and toothpaste are not provided. My only other observation is that the bathroom is not completely sealed off from the room, unlike what you typically find in hotels in Asia. As a result, sounds from the bathroom can be heard quite clearly in the room, which can be slightly uncomfortable."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in San Donato?

The best area to stay in San Donato is within the village centre itself, particularly around the main piazza, Piazza Malaspina.

This compact village is located in the heart of the Chianti Classico region. The central piazza is the hub of activity, surrounded by traditional stone buildings, a few local eateries, and small shops. The village is easily walkable, with narrow streets winding up and down gentle slopes, offering views of the surrounding vineyards and olive groves.

Couples looking for a romantic and authentic Tuscan experience will find the village centre ideal. You'll be within easy reach of wine-tasting experiences at nearby vineyards and can enjoy strolls through the village in the evenings. The smaller, boutique hotels and guesthouses here often provide a more personal touch.

For families, staying slightly outside the immediate village centre, perhaps in an agriturismo or villa within a 5-10 minute drive, offers more space and amenities.

When is the best time to go to San Donato?

The best time to visit San Donato, Tuscany, is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September and October) months.

During spring, the countryside blossoms with wildflowers, and the weather is pleasantly mild, making it ideal for exploring the vineyards and olive groves. Temperatures are comfortable for outdoor activities like cycling or walking through the rolling hills. You'll find fewer crowds compared to the peak summer season, allowing for a more relaxed experience.

Autumn brings the grape harvest (vendemmia) and olive picking season, which can be a fascinating time to visit. The landscapes are painted in rich, warm colours, and the air is crisp. This period is great for food and wine enthusiasts, as many local festivals celebrate the new produce.
