Classic Hotel

The room was spacious, decorated in classic style - nice and authentic for an old Flornece villa. Breakfast was standard for this price range, but the terrace for the breakfast was above expectation! The location is really close to the Porta Romana and it is 15min walk from the Ponte Vecchio.

Nothing special. To some degree mosquitoes were irritating when we open windows in evening, but that's expected as the building is surrounded by vegetation. Closing the windows and turning air-conditioning fixed the issue.

The location was quiet and peaceful within short walking distance to some restaurants, a store, a farmacy, taxi area and the beautiful Boboli Gardens. The hotel rooms and comon areas were nicely decorated with a traditional style. A simple yet tasty breakfast was available in the garden, which made for a pleasant start of each day. The staff was very friendly and helpful - they helped with all our requests always with a smile.

There were mosquitoes in the bedroom which sometimes made it difficult to get a good night sleep. The bites and itching made our stay a little less pleasant. Perhaps installing pest control measures can help to keep the rooms clear of mosquitoes.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, which is perfectly situated in a prime location - close to the city center yet surrounded by nature, amidst the trees. It's a classic hotel where you can truly feel the spirit of the old town. The interior is elegant and exceptionally beautiful. Having breakfast in the courtyard while enjoying the freshness of nature was a delightful experience. The staff was outstanding - very friendly, accommodating, and courteous. Grazie alla padrona di casa, abbiamo trascorso un tempo meraviglioso :)

The staff of this Hotel were really kind and helpful which was probably our favourite part. They were always lovely and accommodating for things like storing our luggage the last day. We have a dog and everyone was very welcoming and tolerant about that which we really appreciate. We also loved the location as it's in a greener part of the city but still close enough to the center. For dogs it's ideal as there is a parc 5 mins from the hotel. The room was spacious and very clean. Deco was very nice too. Our special tip is caffe Petrarca down the road, we went there every day for coffee and lunch.

We mostly were extremely satisfied. As noted by other travellers, the breakfast is very light (no eggs cheese or warm dishes, only toast ham jams and yogurt and fruit) and not what we expected for the price. The room could also do with a few more facilities like a fridge (tricky to store food if like us you stayed longer) some real shampoo and more sockets. Final thing which is very personal as we love to sleep in, breakfast is only until 10 which meant getting up earlier than we wanted. But all these are details, the rest was great.

It was a lovely secluded hotel away from the centre of Florence which is what we wanted. We loved the breakfast location within the gardens and there was plenty of choice. The staff were very pleasant and helpful - we were always booking taxis which they gladly did for us. A lovely stay and the perfect location if you want off the beaten track.

As there was no bars, cafes in the area, a small bar would have been nice for an evening nightcap or for a glass of wine, Although that said they gladly provided glasses if you brought your own. Just a very very small thing which did not dectract from our lovely stay.

The hotel has a balance between reasonable price and distance from city center. It is located 20-25 minutes walk from the center in a very nice area. There is a lot of greenery around, beautiful villas, not far from the Boboli Gardens. There is a super opportunity to park your car free on the site in front of the hotel. The hotel has a beautiful lounge with antique furniture. The room also has a wardrobe and a chest of drawers made of natural wood with a marble top and a nice carpet. Large and comfortable shower. Breakfast is served in a sympa garden. But the he products were of average quality (like from a supermarket)

WiFi was terrible. Sometimes there are 1 line, and sometimes it was completely absent

Location was reasonable distance away from Florence busy hustle. (Tip: driving leave car parked at hotel and take bus/taxi to florence. Nightmare trying drive and park) The Hotel is an old stately mansion and very comfortable. Room was comfortable and bathroom large. Decoration with antique furnishings and felt like your where in Italian mansion of the time with modern amenities. Parking was great. Front desk people where very friendly/helpful in all questions and spoke English.

We had a room located in bottom half hotel and near basement. I would have like an upper story with larger windows and more light.. Breakfast was okay...no hot food, like eggs..etc. The breakfast area was outside (beautiful porch area) but my wife tripped and fell once hard and we both tripped several times because of uneven footing.

The building is beautiful. The staff are so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much. The location is stunning. You are surrounded by beautiful old large homes, beautiful gardens and the scent of flowers. We walked into and out of the city and there is something to see all the way. You are in a more local area too so things are slightly cheaper. It reminds me a lot of the Garden District in New Orleans. It felt completely safe even for a lone female to walk at night. There is a taxi rank at the end of the street, 1 minute walk. There is a bus stop 1 street over, also 1 minute walk. Breakfast is plentiful, cereal, pastries, bread, jams, yogurts, fruit, juice, tea/coffee. There are even some individually wrapped pastries to take with you which is handy if you are sightseeing/on tours

The only bad thing for me was my allergies to the beautiful flowers/scents. If you have allergies to flowers or feather pillows you will need your allergy medication

great villa to stay in Florence. the hotel is not in the Center of Florence but don’t let this fool you it’s actually a great thing for Florence because it is extremely busy with tourists. 3 min walk to the gates and then you are in the streets of old town which you are gonna walk anyway. I was traveling with a car so the private parking on the property was top. interior could you use a bit of update but who cares i was there only to sleep. Sam was great, made me coffee every morning and help with everything. overall great place. American and Canada 2-3 star or an ok Airbnb, but again don’t let this fool you the property is great to stay in.

-The hotel and the garden are very charming, the location is super quiet -Public transportation available nearby - good value for money -comfortable bed, big enough room, bathroom amenities, hot water

Everything was great with the hotel. One thing I did not really like was that everytime I was passing by reception, entering or leaving the building, staff was asking me what room I was in. After the first 2-3 times, it became annoying, as if I am an intruder and not a hotel guest.
