Convenient location inside Volterra. Part of the road around Volterra was closed, so I was confused on how to find the hotel, but once we found it, we loved it. Lovely breakfast. Helpful and friendly staff.

Enjoyed our stay. Good hotel, a bit dated rooms - showers quite small. Included breakfast was average - nothing wrong with average! Just not quite the quality of other 4 stars I have stayed at. A very good average hotel.

Unique stay in a former convent. Small but comfortable rooms. Staff went out of their way to offer assistance. Volterra is a lovely town too!

Ok, but not 4 stars
It is inside the walls of the city and has a nice pool and terrace, but the room was outdated and the bathroom smelled.

Highly recommend San Lino hotel
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at San Lino. The reception staff were so welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. All areas were spotlessly clean as was our room which was cleaned daily. Our room size was good and had good air conditioning. Breakfast was basic but good. It also offered some locally produced food. Breakfast staff were attentive and friendly. The pool area was private and nicely laid out. If visiting Volterra I would highly recommend San Lino hotel.

Convenient Hotel old town with garage
On night stay and very convenient as within the walls of old town and had own garage 30 meters from hotel@ EUR 12. Receptionist (Dorothy I think) excellent. Budget room fin but bed a bit firm for me. Great shower. View was if neighbours garden . Breakfast room and outdoor area lovely. Choice more European but all great.

I loved this place it's not a fancy big hotel but quite small with small rooms and a private pool . Breakfast was a treat think of a bed and breakfast in a medieval town . It is in the city walls so you can pay extra for parking and have access to the city center . If you want big and fancy this may not be for you ❣️friendly staff clean and efficient I was truly impressed and had a great experience ☺️
