Locanda Viani

Locanda Viani is a lovely small, family run guest house. The location was perfect, a lovely peaceful place within the Tuscan countryside, yet just a pleasant country 12-15 minutes' walk from the historical centre of the town. The accommodation was clean and comfortable and we had a fabulous view from our window of the town of San Gimignano. The furnishings, facilities and general up-keep of the guest house was very good. A nice cold buffet breakfast was offered each day with cereals, meats, cheeses, toast, cakes, fruit and tea and coffee. They also wherever possible ensure their food is organic. Paula and Roberto who run the guest house were very friendly and helpful. We arrived early and Paula worked hard to get our room ready ahead of schedule. They also offered helpful information and were generally always warm and welcoming. Roberto is also an excellent artist and the rooms and breakfast room were also a gallery of his amazing paintings which itself was lovely to see but also a lovely unique and personal touch to the place. And he is very talented! The guesthouse having just a few rooms made for a relaxing, quiet place with a friendly and personal feel about it. To summarise, the B&B was clean, comfortable with a great location, lovely friendly owners and a personal touch. If I was going back to San Gimignano, I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a lovely stay.
