Find peace at Villa San Paolo

ByQ X

Villa San Paolo, San Gimignano

Who? Villa San Paolo

What? Escape to the heart of Tuscany at Villa San Paolo, a quaint little spa hotel just outside of the ancient town of San Gimignano. There, you will find a charming and peaceful stay amidst the rolling Tuscan hills. It’s a little out of the way, so perfect for a getaway, but also close enough to San Gimignano to add a touch of culture to your break. The thing that’s really not to be missed, though, is the stunning view at breakfast.

When? Available now

Where? Strada Provinciale per Certaldo, 53037 San Gimignano (SI), Italy
