Locanda Linando II is the quintessential B&B in the quintessential Tuscan town. Certaldo is off the beaten path but centered in the heart of Tuscany (why pay for the commercial kitsch and crowds of San Gimignano when it's yours for the viewing from the ramparts of Certaldo and your room at Locanda Linando II)! Chiara is a wonderful hostess who,... More

We have stayed at Locando Linando several times over the last few years and keep going back. The medieval village of Certaldo Alto is a very special place with cobbled streets and wonderful little resturants and bars tucked away. The surrounding countryside is breathtaking and makes it an ideal location for visiting surrounding villages - if you can tear yourself... More

For me staying at Locando Linando was like being transported into a medieval fairy tail for two nights. I visited Certaldo Alto while travelling with a friend through Italy. By luck we arrived during Boccaccesca - a festival of local food and wine. We had a great time checking out the vendors on the cobble stone streets, tasting the local... More

This place is filled with a magic light! The rooms are splendid, the views of the town and surrounding hills are breathtaking! The location of Certaldo is very convenient to get around Tuscany. It's a wonderfully preserved medieval town with unique vibe and charming streets. The hostess, Chiara, is kind, helpful, knowledgeable and fun. The B&B has a personality and... More

Locando Linando is an artistic gem steeped in the history of the mediaeval town of Certaldo-Alto. This little town, the birthplace of Boccaccio, sits atop a hill with glorious countryside views towards the spires of its more famous neighbour, San Gimignano. But the great advantage of Certaldo-Alto is that it remains completely unspoilt by mass tourism. A quiet room amidst... More

Staying at Locanda Linando II is really an experience you should treat yourself to when traveling through Tuscany. The interior decoration itself is a treat, so much detail and completely fitting into the historic surroundings. The owner and manager, Chiara Felicity is a superb host and personally sees to it that you are comfortable. She actually comes out to meet... More

This place made our stay unforgettable in Italy. It's located in Tuscany in the small town of Certaldo. What's so special is the location -- the bed and breakfast is in the heart of the old town,  (oldest buildings are estimated to be 11th century), which is perched atop a hill overlooking the town and Tuscan countryside. Even better than... More
