Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was like having our own little villa, beautifully decorated with a terrace offering a great view. The rooms were lovely, very spacious, and nicely furnished, blending old-world charm with modern comforts. However, the location was a bit far away from main attractions, and the service seemed to be figuring things out. Despite these minor drawbacks, it was a delightful stay overall.
Staying at this hotel was like having our own little villa within a Medieval village on a hill, complete with a terrace offering a great view. The rooms were beautifully decorated, featuring a walk-in closet and double sink, and even stayed comfortable at 80 degrees with the heat turned off. The service was extremely accommodating and professional, with a first-rate concierge available for any assistance. The location, close to the A1 and about an hour from Florence in the Tuscany hills, was very secluded and picturesque, though the walk from parking to the house was quite a trek. The dining experience was top-notch, offering super fresh Italian products, even though it could get a bit busy during popular morning times. The facilities were impressive, meeting all our needs during the stay.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The rooms were lovely and very spacious, making it perfect after long and fun days and nights celebrating the wedding couple. The location, though gorgeous, may not be suitable for those who struggle with climbing. The dining experience was filling and delicious, fueled me up for all the exciting activities ahead. Overall, a great experience with a few minor drawbacks.
