I highly recommend this property
Palazzo Luci in Colle di Val d’Elsa were probably the most pleasant accommodations our annual visits to Tuscany over the past 15 years. I made the reservation in Oct. 2018 for our stay the first week of June 2019. From my first contact with Francesca the property owner she always answered my questions promptly. Francesca greeted us about 500 feet from the property entrance (which is on a pedestrian only street) and assisted us with our two 50 lb. suitcases up the 4 flights of stairs to the door. Her directions to the property and where to park were extremely helpful and precise.
The apartment was much larger than we needed but due to the reasonable rate and location with the beautiful view of the hillsides from the terrace it was a true bargain. The master bedroom with the inlaid wood ceiling and comfortable bed was very lovely. The well equipped large kitchen was perfect for preparing a simple lunch to a hot dinner.
I will not go into detail about the town which would only repeat what others have written. I highly recommend this property for your next stay in Tuscany.

Perfect base to visit Tuscany
Magnificent house well equipped in a beautiful tuscan village, perfect as a base to visit the region. Great for two families with kids. I would just not recommend it for those with mobility problems (stairs, far parking places).

Convenient location with great views
This property is extremely unique. It is in the centre of the old town and as you would expect from a property that was built a long time ago, it has charm. The views to the region are stunning. You need to be fit to stay here as you cannot drive to the door and drop off your luggage and there are many stairs to the apartment but if fitness is not an issue then it is fine. There is a free car park only a 10 minute walk away. Luca the care taker was very helpful as we could not find the property and he kindly drove to meet us and showed us the way. Francesca has been very delightful to correspond with and there were a few items we suggested to her that would improve the property which she was fine to hear about. If you are looking for a genuine old town Italian experience this may well provide the answer. It is best for two couples and two children, although there is a sofa bed in one of the adult bedrooms which two children could share. There are a few reasonably priced bistros within easy walking distance and English is widely spoken. There is also a two star Michelin restaurant in the town, if you want a special dinner! The town is a good location for day trips to the Chianti Hills, Siena, San Gimingano and Pisa. I hope the owner takes onboard some of the improvements our group suggested as these changes would make this a very desirable property to stay at. We thank Luca and Francesca for helping us to enjoy our holiday in this region of Italy.

Charming Tuscany Villa
We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful Tuscany apartment. The apartment is huge and has a beautiful outdoor terrace that overlooks the Tuscany hillside. The kitchen is large and cozy at the same time. The master bedroom has an inlaid ceiling that is gorgeous. We had trouble finding the old town. We called Luca & he came & met us which was very nice. It is a beautiful apartment ; however, be aware there are many steps to reach the apartment and there is no luggage elevator. Also, be sure to stop at grocery store (Coop) first because there are minimal supplies on hand.

Welcoming and helpful owners. Spacious top floor apartment in an old palace in the heart of the old town of Colle Val DElsa. A good centre to visit the surrounding area. Characterful building in a lovely old town that has escaped being over run by tourists but has plenty of interest and places to eat. We had a great holiday.

Perfect place in Tuscany
This is an amazing property! I was a bit unsure when I booked it, but we found it to be much better than the photos. It's huge, extremely well equipped, Beautiful, has incredible views of the Tuscan hills! The town of Colle is great... we ended up staying right here in the town instead of driving around the area. This home is in the traffic restricted section of the upper old hill town of Colle. In town there is a fancy pastry bakery, small produce store, bread bakery, butcher, plus restaurants, atm machine etc. Even a playground for children. What's it missing? Crowds of tourists. If you love character & views with modern amenities, stay here. You do have to be able to walk upstairs. It's on the top floor (third).

Maravilloso palacio con vistas de sueño !
La realidad superó mucho a las fotos y la descripción. El lugar es extraordinario, muy grande, muy cómodo, muy bien decorado, techos de madera trabajada, enormes chimeneas de piedra, baños y cocinas nuevas. Muy equipado. Y con una vistas a la campiña Toscana que podrían estar en la tapa de un libro. Como es lógico, la vista mejor está arriba y hay 53 escalones hasta el piso. El Palacio de las Luces, donde está el piso, está a 20 metros de donde comienza la zona restringida al tránsito. El vehículo, tras dejar los equipajes, debe quedar en un parking gratuito bajando unas escaleras. Los dueños Francesca y Fabio fueron muy amables en todo sentido. El Sr Luca, que vive en el mismo edificio, nos recibió con la casa preparada. Colle es una ciudad medieval de cuento, en lo alto de una colina, más auténtica que otras más conocidas. Es un placer caminarla y en especial las vistas que la rodean. Está muy cerca de otros sitios de interés de la Toscana. Esta vez éramos toda la familia, tres generaciones incluidos 4 nietos. Esperamos volver con amigos en otro momento. Gente que recupera lugares histéricos y los pone a disposición es fantástico. Gracias...
