How to get to Hotel Sovestro
By car
Hotel Sovestro near San Gimignano is easy to reach by car from any direction. From the Poggibonsi/San Gimignano motorway exit, it’s about a 10-minute drive. We offer large, free, video-monitored private parking, with a dedicated area for motorbikes and EV charging points.
On foot from San Gimignano
Via Vecchia, the old dirt road leading into town, starts just 30 metres from the hotel. A beautiful, scenic 20-minute walk through the countryside, with views over San Gimignano along the way.

Getting to Hotel Sovestro from Florence
By car, Hotel Sovestro is about an hour from Florence, along scenic roads through the Tuscan countryside. There’s no direct train to San Gimignano: the nearest station is in Poggibonsi, reached by train from Florence (sometimes with a change in Empoli), followed by a short local bus (line 130) into San Gimignano. If you prefer public transport, allow at least an hour and a half each way.
Getting to Hotel Sovestro from Pisa
Driving is by far the easiest way to reach us from Pisa, taking around an hour and 15 minutes through the Tuscan countryside. Public transport is possible but not very direct: it involves a train to Empoli, a connection to Poggibonsi, and then a local bus into San Gimignano, so we’d recommend renting a car if you’re coming from Pisa.
Getting to Hotel Sovestro from Siena
Siena is the closest of Tuscany’s main cities to Hotel Sovestro, just around 40 minutes by car. A direct bus service also connects Siena to San Gimignano in about an hour, making it an easy day trip or a convenient way to reach us without a car.

Information for booking double rooms
A booking for a double room is intended exclusively for two people. If traveling with children, it must be reported in advance so we can assign a suitable room type, since every guest must have their own bed. We also ask parents to make sure their children behave respectfully in the hotel’s and restaurant’s common areas, to ensure comfort for everyone.
