Located on a scenic hilltop, it's just a short walk to the bus stop for easy access to Florence's historic city center. the hotel also offers a spacious pool area for a relaxing day under the sun. the rooms and bathrooms are charmingly vintage, while the friendly staff provides great service and a tasty breakfast spread. the hotel also provides free Wi-Fi and a ground floor lounge with books for borrowing.

The hotel's antique decor and furnishings might not be to everyone's taste.

There was no wifi signal in the rooms. We really enjoyed our time here. It is near to the airport. Hotel’s position an easy walk to all places we wanted to see, like Fontelucente❤

Absolutely nothing.

We stayed for 5 nights in June 2011 and it was lovely. Staff were very helpful, beautiful location and great facilities. The views are amazing and the pool is massive! It is an authentic italian hotel tucked away in the hills but a short 5 minute bus ride to the centre of Florence!! Would definitely go back again!

The friendly staff really stood out, and the location? Gorgeous! This place is top-notch, just what you'd expect in this kind of setting. Can't wait to come back! 🌟

Good location just above Florence with views of the city. Easy bus access into Florence. We stayed in one of the manors on the property which had good parking for our motorcycles. The property is part of an olive orchard and is pleasant and quiet. The pool area has bar, with the bar tenders being nice eye candy for the ladies. Eye candy for the guys was at the very good restaurant on the premises. The location also provided relatively easy access to Mugello raceway; turn right at the hotel exit, drive about 30 km through Toscan countryside and you are there.

Finding our room the first night in the dark proved difficult until I had someone take us there. Once we were settled in, no worries.

The hotel has two main attractions; the view from the swimming pool area, looking over Florence and the surrounding countryside, and the pool itself, which has a wonderfully deep 5m diving board end. The pool area also has excellent staff with a bar serving very good, healthy snacks. For us, this area made the hotel a joyful experience.

The hotel building itself would be disappointing if not for the pool area. The hotelier was terse, uninviting and actually insulting in regards to our mode of transport. The room was in need of modernisation and we had people sleeping on sofa's outside our room snoring very loudly. The restaurant was exceptionally expensive with untrained staff and mediocre food. The hotel was not particularly good value for money on the whole either.

The staff were kind and welcoming. Lov

Very good helpful staff, always with a smile, and ready to help you with booking of tkts, tours, etc.Lovely to walk all over the estate with olive gardens etc

Not really a negative point but the hotel (and more the grounds) needs a slight spruce up and it would be a really nice place to stay in, and they can charge even double then!

The view

Wrongly described as having a Gourmet restaurant - some of the very worst food I have had in Italy . The olive oil on the table was not the product sold in reception as local but some pale yellow oil that tasted industrial.The room was Spartan to say the least with holes in the towels and thin pillows. I will never stay again.

The hotel location is amazing - situated on a hill that provides a breathtaking view of the city. The hotel facilities are clean and well-maintained. Transportation is made easy with a bus stop just outside of the hotel. The staff's hospitality is superb, and breakfast is a real treat.

Nothing to complain about at all.

The sheets & towels were clean and the bed was comfortable

It was scruffy and dirty. Curtains were dirty. Bathroom was in need of refurb, as was room. Breakfast was very mediocre, croissants were frozen.

This hotel is very quaint and has a lot of charm. The land around the hotel is beautiful and there are amazing views of Florence and Tuscan country side from the garden. It would be perfect in the summer when the pool is open. Our room was spacious and the balconies were lovely. The food was amazing the staff was so helpful and friendly.

This was not a problem for us, but there is no elevator.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this luxurious 4-star hotel and I must say, it was a truly magnificent experience. The hotel's location on the hills above Florence provided the most breathtaking views I have ever seen. Being able to wake up and witness the beauty of the city below was like a dream come true.

I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay. Whether you're in need of a relaxing getaway or a convenient base to explore the surrounding area, this place has it all.

Enviroment is the most beatiful, but it should it be more clean and tide up.

It was little bit cold ( in october) and the beautiful enviroment should be more cleaner.

Location. The view from balcony.

It is difficult to find. I would recomend to travel to the city by car (the parking is not so difficult) as the hotel is in the middle of the olive trees park and walking in the dark would not be very nice.
