Gorgeous villa situated on a large well maintained property. It is elegantly decorated just on the outskirts of Florence. The city is accessible with the bus stop at your doorstep or an easy half an hour walk . Our room was very spacious and comfortable with an amazing view of the Tuscan hills as a back drop. We enjoyed our... More

The villa looks like it was updated in the 70s, but is very comfortable and clean. Our rooms did not have blow dryers or alarms clocks, so next time we'll need to remember that. We had a very nice stay. It was quiet, we felt safe, and there was ample parking. We did not plan to spend a lot of... More

Me and my wife stayed here October 2011, while looking at the past reviews we were a little worried as there are a few bad ones. But as I work in the hotel world, know that people can use TripAdvisor as a tool to vent anger problems. The room and the whole stay was fantastic. Buses are easy to use... More

The hotel was nice enough. Beds were comfortable, room was done in traditional "Italian" style. However, the hotel charged us for one nights accommodation on the day that I made the reservation AND charged us again on the day we checked out. Despite numerous attempts to contact them and have the second charge reimbursed, they have refused to reply to... More

We, family of 6, stayed in the Magnolia Suite. Clean rooms, 2 spacious rooms and one a bit smaller. The rooms had comfortable beds. We asked for blankets and got it right away. You get into the estate, from an urban neighbourhood, through a narrow gate, to a nice, quite place in natural environment. It is a 10 minutes drive... More

If you are considering booking this 'hotel', DO NOT DO THAT! The pictures on the web has nothing to do with reality. After arrival we were shown to our room, which happened to be kind of a slave's dorm, with blue tiles like in a hospital. After complaining that it is not even close to what was promised we were...

My clients spent one night here-they found the gardens to be overgrown. They were in a self-catering room with no glasses-unhelpful staff. Room was very spacious though. They caught a bus into the centre of town which was easy to do. They felt that the place wasn't being looked after properly, and that it must've been beautiful at one stage,... More

You enter the massive estate down a tree-lined lane that contrasts impressively with the busy traffic on the street....peace abounds here! The lovely villa appears and the interior is furnished with period pieces plus a few more contemporary ones. Our room was so spacious and had a great sunset view! The customer service began weeks before our arrival when I... More

I have been there only one night with my family and friends but it has been a very good experience. The house is only five minutes by car from the city center. The house is very beautiful, also de furniture and a woman (I don't know if she was the owner) has shown us all the rooms incluiding the cellar... More
