Gourmet B&B Villa Landucci0

Florence is a mad place as it is far too crowded ( I think Stanley Tucci must shoot his travel shows at 6am). But if you want some of this madness then Villa Landucci is a good place to stay for a few reasons. (1) It is outside of the main tourist area, which means that it is more sane, the local restaurants do not charge an arm and a leg and it is quiet (we had a small sitting area outside of our room which was great of an evening) and (2) If you have a car VL has a perfect car park which is locked and safe. The staff at VL are very welcoming and eager that you enjoy your experience in Florence. Breakfast is a simple fare but it is nice and you get the chance to talk to your fellow travellers.

This is not a negative comment on VL, but in Florence you need to save your energy for walking around and dodging tourists, bikes, e-scooters etc. so my advice is that unless you are very fit then I would not walk on but take the number 6 bus all the way to the Arno. Bus travel is cheap and they can get crowded ( especially the C1,C3 etc) but the 6 is big and you can rest until you get to the centre.

I loved that the B&B was a bit away from the main tourist area, yet extremely walkable to the center (proxy 20-35 min). I didn't mind, it's good to walk off all the food you're gonna eat! Room was a great size, nice big windows, full working AC, strong wifi connection, and my room was cleaned up every day - really appreciated that! I had a lost luggage situation at the airport and the host helped me find an open department store to grab last minute essentials. He had a lot of options and suggestions of things to do in the area. Shared bathroom had a decent size shower and water pressure was great. Cute garden area in the back! Felt the location/ B&B had great security and safety , esp for a young female traveler

Would have liked for there to have been a floor towel/bathroom mat provided. And told about the city tax that they charge per person/per day ahead of time - will not be included in booking payment.

We had a truly fantastic stay in Florence at this charming villa, and it became all the more special by our incredibly welcoming hosts Matteo and David. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. Matteo provided invaluable local tips for exploring Florence, including hidden gems and the best places to savor authentic Italian cuisine. The villa's interior was beautifully decorated, blending traditional Tuscan charm with modern amenities. Breakfast was simple delicious italian, but also filled with cozy atmosphere from other guests and the host. It felt like we were staying with a dear friends rather than at a typical accommodation. In total, Florence was an unforgettable experience!

Room was spacious, comfy and well equipped The walk into the city (about a mile) with access to the main sights was very interesting, as well it being a good place to start from to go off the beaten track, and over to the south of the river! Breakfast - good variety and quantity. Host very responsive to requests and suggestions. Also provided lots of great restaurant recommendations!

Breakfast space was a bit cramped and difficult to get around to serve yourself. The tea/coffee making facilities in the room were very cramped. It would have been useful to have easier access to a couple of plates and cutlery when the host was not on site so we could more comfortably bring a meal/snack back with us instead of eating out. Having said that, we were provided with these when we asked.

I liked authenticity of the place and also location. Villa is close to old town centre and you could reach there by 15 minutes walk. It is nicely furnished with regional style that gives special atmosphere. (I prefer places like this at least..) Rooms are spacious and comfortable and face back garden. Plus is also the possibility to book parking place. (on the side of the building next to the garden, but inside property's area). Place is special and family like also thanks to the owner who advice on anything you might like to know about places to go and see, restaurants with the best food or even offer to help with table booking for dinner. Villa Landucci is simply place to go to...

What I want to mention first is the host. Matteo is an exceptional host that manages the property perfectly and creates superb atmosphere. He could help you with everything starting from arriving, to what to visit in the city, some features for locals, what wine to try and many many more. He is like your guide across the city. Besides this, we were happy with the price, private parking, breakfasts and the room. The location was also good. You could easily walk 10-15 minutes to get to the city center, so you don't need to dive into the hell with parking. If you wish you could also use the bus, the bus stop is nearby.

I can't mention anything.

Villa Landucci is quite close to the city center and it has parking available upon request, at a convenient price for Florence. The camera was very big, clean, we had everything that we needed. The staff was very polite: they suggested we do online checking in but made the time to highlight on the map the main attractions, restaurants, gelato shops and everything that we needed . They even helped us with a reservation for a restaurant. We also had breakfast there one day and it was good value for the money.

Matteo is a very polite, helpful, and warm person. He did tell us a lot about the city and the locations we should visit. His advices were very helpful, also, whenever we reached him in whatsapp, he immediately replied, even if the question was unrelated to the accommodation. I can't forget when we arrived, he asked us to first have a rest before checking in, which was very nice of him. Our room was also very comfortable, with almost all necessary facilities. The location was good, only around 20 minutes walk from the old city. I was very happy with my stay, and I would definitely repeat the booking.

We booked a 4-bed room which I think wasn't comfortable for 4 people. The second bed (sofa) was very uncomfortable and noisy. My wife and I were sleeping in this bed, and whenever one of use had to use the bathroom during night, it caused everyone to wake up due to the noises. I also think that the breakfast did not worth the prise, and you probably can find better breakfast with almost the same prise elsewhere.

Matteo was very knowledgeable about the city, places to visit and eat even arranged Taxi service for me, very courteous and arranged a tour to Sienna and Pisa, I would stay there again, the place was historic and had a aura about it, the deco and furniture matched with the age of the building.

My Flight was Cancelled in the US due to Hurricanes was a day late wish could get a break on the price.

Excellent host , will make your trip seamless; Matteo takes time with guests to explain about places of your interests in Florence , tells you the best restaurants and books them for you , booked for me Passpartou pass on the same day (which is not possible online ) finding the slot for Uffizi ; room is clean , spacious with high ceiling; nice view from the window ; excellent breakfast; walkable to city center , great value for money ; would stay again if in Florence!
