Hotel l'Antico Pozzo

My husband and I enjoyed an unforgettable stay at Hotel L 'Antico Pozzo in early January. We can not say thank you enough to the owners ,Mariangela, Elisabetta ,& Emanuele , along with Massimo , the receptionist , & Ciria , the housekeeper . Their wonderful Italian hospitality made us feel welcome & well taken care of during our entire stay. The hotel's website has great information and photos. Hotel L' Antico Pozzo opened in September 1990 after the careful restorations & renovations of Palazzo Tamburini , a 15th century palace, were completed . After reading about the impressive history of the hotel & seeing the beautiful photos, I immediately emailed requesting a reservation . A prompt response gave me the good news that the Dante Room was available ! The Dante Room was even more beautiful than the photos ! It was spacious, tastefully decorated & furnished , with a gorgeous & comfortable bed .The bathroom shower was great too. Even with all the modern conveniences , the Dante Room had a aura of a bygone era . Thank you to Ciria for making sure everything was immaculate each day . We appreciated her doing such a wonderful job . We slept well and awakened to the heavenly aroma of pastries baking in the hotel kitchen. Freshly made each morning ,the pastries along with homemade cakes were scrumptious ! The dining room was very elegant with linen covered tables set with pretty china .In the past it was the palace's ballroom Sala Rosa . A variety of sweet & savory items including ; the luscious pastries & cakes, yogurt, fruit, cereal, organic cheeses, Tuscan meats, to mention some . Also omelettes and coffee could be made for you .Our cappuccino & caffe macchiato were prepared perfectly . Everything was fresh &delicious ! We definitely enjoyed a very relaxing meal and never were rushed . It was the perfect start to each day ! We appreciated how helpful Emanuele was the day we needed a ride to a wine tasting nearby. It was raining that morning, and it would have taken at least 20 minutes to walk to the winery . Emanuele kindly drove us there and also back to the hotel when we had finished . We really appreciated him being so kind. Also the hotel made arrangements for a driver to take us to Florence on our last morning . We appreciated this too . San Gimignano was especially enjoyable with out the crowds . We had a very short walk to the Duomo, Museums and restaurants & an a very nice one next door that we enjoyed twice . The 2 pizzerias were really good too. The daytime views of the countryside were breathtaking . We made sure to see the towers at night too , & what a spectacular sight ! This medieval town is simply magical ! We are very thankful for our unforgettable stay at Hotel L' Antico Pozzo ! Grazie mille to all the fantastic people there ! Peggy
