This was the most amazing place to stay! This was our favorite stop on a 30-day trip to Greece, Italy and Switzerland. The surrounding countryside is stunning. Our room had a Turkish Bath - what a fun experience. We were a couple of weeks in to our vacation, and we were ready for some down time. Having a private little garden, overlooking the Tuscan hillside was WONDERFUL. The dinner we had on site was one of the best of our entire trip. Breakfast in the morning was an incredible display...

This hotel set the bar EXTREMELY high for our 2 week vacation. The staff is truly invested in making sure your stay is superb. This is a relatively new-build hotel for Tuscany, but it’s built to look traditional with modern twists. Our room was very spacious and had a modern shower and changing closet. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The pool is beautiful and the spa house is great. Currently you have to book the spa access a day ahead due to covid precautions; you get 1 hour to...

This property was stunning. Gorgeous views westward over the rolling Tuscan hills, paired with a cozy spa and relaxing outdoor pool were the perfect setting for a portion of our honeymoon. The staff was very friendly/helpful and management certainly does a superb job maintaining this historical setting.

Excellent service, great location, and a very stylish, spotless hotel! We were extremely satisfied with our stay. The staff were very accommodating and made us feel welcome. Having someone who is honest and gives you genuine recommendations makes such a difference, especially when choosing a hotel from another country. We truly appreciated the experience and would highly recommend this hotel!

We booked our stay (and our guests) at this hotel thru Expedia without any knowledge of the property. We were looking for a place to stay in Florence for a few days with our friends as we traveled on to Rome for a week.
We've become accustomed to staying in nicer hotels and don't mind spending more to be in a safe, comfortable establishment with very good service. However, from the moment I parked my car in front of the hotel (in the plaza) and walked in the door I knew this was very, very...
