A picturesque, quiet and opulent place to stay whenever visiting Florence. The view of Florence is excellent, the food is good and access to both Florence and nearby fine dining is convenient. Our "go to" place near Florence since 2012, and it will remain so.

Beautiful property tranquil and near to Florence and Fiosole. Some staff could benefit from hospitality training. Disappointed with restaurant hours and quality. Unreliable bus so depended on expensive taxi service.

Excellent room and facility in general but I don’t recommend eating at the restaurant. There are many better restaurants options around.

The setting was spectacular, the common rooms wonderful. The food was very very good. The bathroom was very much on the small side.

Beautiful property overlooking Florence with spectacular views. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. A lovely place to get away from the hustle and bustle after walking around the city.

Just the most wonderful and truly Italian hotel overlooking Florence. It is so tranquil, a magical place, and the perfect place to relax on the terrace, with a drink watching the glitter of the city lights after the hustle and bustle of the day.. The staff could not do enough to make sure our stay was perfect. I would highly recommend this hotel full of Italian charm.

Fantastic location to explore Florence. The staff were extremely helpful. It is in a quiet location about 1km from the nearest town.

Our room at the pensione was fairly large, a bit tired, with a wardrobe, nice bathroom, and a killer view of Florence. After we had checked into our room we realized the air conditioning was not working ( it was hot ). We advised reception and were told that half the air system was not working and that the next day we would be able to change rooms. It would have been nice if they had told us up front that the air wasn't working. The next day we changed rooms to a much smaller, dingy, tiny bathroom, nowhere to hang clothes, air conditioned, killer view, for the same price. The room was nowhere near the same quality as the first room. Supper that night at their restaurant was not good. It was a 4 course meal. The a la carte menu is not available on Mondays and Tuesday. One of the courses was soup, which we did not receive. The second was pasta which was ok. The main described as pork slices was in fact 4 paper thin slices of luncheon meat with slices of lettuce(no dressing) and beets. It was terrible. dessert was creme caramel which was OK. At 20 euros each we were very disappointed. We tried breakfast the next day to give it a chance but again we were disappointed. We did not go back again during our 3 day stay. We did notice on Wednesday the restaurant had plenty of customers. Does the real chef come and do the a la carte menu? In our opinion the hotel is very tired and needs a facelift. It does have a great view but that's it, we have nothing good to say.

The noise from below our room was not good. We prepaid all. And left a day early. They wrote and said we still owed. We had to leave as not to ruin our vacation

A proper old family hotel with space and room. I very much enjoyed staying there.

After spending hot summer days sightseeing in Florence I looked forward to coming home to this beautiful pensione with its amazing views, cool breezes and lovely host. This ultimate Tuscany experience is not to be missed.

Beautiful location and great staff! Perfect for relaxation and for enjoying a breathtaking view of Florence

Amazing place with super friendly staff. Will come back soon!

This is a beautiful property with great views of Florence.

I just love this place. The staff is amazing. I checked in on the afternoon of June 18th and I forgot the two ladies names that checked us in, but they were just lovely. So helpful. It is so peaceful there.

The service is excellent: including a shuttle to the restaurants in Fiesole

The most relaxing place to stay - timeless charm of a bygone era with the most beautiful views down across Florence..... a slice of heaven where you can forget about the rest of the world! Should be prescribed on the NHS as a way to achieve perfect rest & perspective on life! No tv in room - bliss. Good WiFi but even better - you don’t feel the need every 5 mins to check email or social media! Why would you when you can soak in such wonderful history, atmosphere & family care! This was my third visit & I confess I felt no need to join the boards of tourists in Florence itself as the vista over the rooftops provides enough as does the charming town of Fiesole above. The very helpful evening free shuttle to & from nearby restaurants a big plus too! So much better than a faceless chain hotel where one could just as easily be on any corporate city visit... this truly is a special opportunity to leave modern day stresses behind & live your own ‘Room with a View’ time of elegance, nostalgia & romanticism.

Amazing ambience. Beautiful views. Extremely friendly and helpful reception. Wonderful breakfast buffet on verandah overlooking Florence.
