Hotel Latini, Certaldo

The Hotel Latini, Certaldo - beautifully situated for exploring some of Italy's most stunning countryside, this Certaldo hotel offers reliable, affordable comfort, and is within an hour of the world famous Tuscan art cities of Florence, Siena, Volterra and San Gimignano.

Rooms at this Certaldo hotel are singles, twins, doubles or triples. All have phone, air conditioning, bathroom with shower and toilet, and a television. The hotel offers luggage storage and a breakfast buffet each morning. There are fax and photocopying facilities and internet connection for guests. And the Hotel Latini has a superb restaurant serving the best of traditional Tuscan far, lunch and dinner, Tuesday to Sunday each week. The superb food is complemented by a great wine list, more than 300 wines to make the perfect accompaniment to any meal.

But above all is the location of this Certaldo hotel. The town, famously home to Boccaccio, one of Italy's greatest poets, is a kilometre from here, and is a delightful little Tuscan hilltown, a real undiscovered gem amidst its more famous neighbours. Sights include the Casa Boccaccio, the Palazzo Vicariale and the Museo d'Arte. Nearby San Gimignano is, of course, Tuscany's famous city of towers, more than a dozen of them surviving from San Gimignano's great days as a power, in the early Middle Ages. And a trip to historic Siena, a beautiful medieval city strangely untouched by modern times (but with some terrific bars, restaurants and shops) is an absolute must. This Certaldo hotel puts all that and some superb countryside, on your doorstep.
