A small hotel located just outside the village of Casole d'Elsa, the Hotel Gemini is set in wooded Tuscan hill country, 23 kilometres from Siena. Its 42 colourful, Tuscan-style guestrooms feature floral patterned fabrics, dark-wood furniture and open onto balconies or garden terraces offering panoramic views of the surrounding hills and valleys. All rooms include satellite television, direct-dial telephones, safes, minibars and bathrooms with shower/tub combinations. In-room massage services are available on request.
The hotel's large outdoor pool features a terrace area complete with a picturesque garden and poolside bar, offering unimpeded views over the surrounding hills and valleys. Ristorante Gemini also makes the most of the surroundings, serving its meals al fresco on two terraces. The restaurant serves authentic Tuscan and Italian cooking, including homemade pasta, seafood dishes and desserts, and also offers a large selection of local wines. After dinner, guests can relax with a drink amidst the original artworks, ceramics and engravings in the lounge or private bar. Fitness enthusiasts enjoy discounted access to a health centre operated by the hotel, located four kilometres away, which offers gym equipment, a sauna, steam bath, solar shower and indoor heated pool with a whirlpool. Multilingual staff on the 24-hour front desk can answer enquiries and offer tour assistance, and visitors arriving by car will find complimentary reserved, shaded parking spaces. The cathedrals at San Gimignano and Volterra are both within 17 kilometres, and the medieval town of Siena can be found 23 kilometres from the hotel. Florence Vespucci Airport is 60 kilometres away, with an approximate driving time of one hour.
