I tried to book for September 2009 about 6 months ago and couldn't get a room so I changed my travel plans so that we could spend 2 days at this wonderful hotel on 21 and 22 October. My hysband and I arrived after spending some time in Firenze to be greeted by Guido - what a charming and helpful... more

This hotel lives up to its perfect billing. Go there and meet the awesomest hotel owner ever. Get his restaurant recommendations, drink the blood orange juice for breakfast, and explore fantastic San Gimignano. San Gimignano gives a very cool medieval feeling, as does the 850 year old building housing the Vecchio Asilo. more

If Four Seasons, Hilton and InterContinental were to search how to provide the ultimate personalized service, they have to look no further...just have them learn from Guido at Vecchio Asilo.

The Previous rave reviews have all been more than true, we were booked to stay at Vecchio Asilo for 4 nights and stayed for 5, we would have stayed forever if it had been an option. This was the hardest place I have ever had to leave. If I'm honest I like luxury hotels, finished to a high standard with... more

We had planned to explore the area of San Gimignano and required a place to stay for four nights. Because we’ve never gone wrong with TA recommendations in the past, we were led by the hotel’s having attained a 2009 Traveler’s Choice Top Value award.
