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...

Beautiful grand old hotel with high ceilings and wonderful frescoes in the room. When you wake up, it feels like you are living in the time of the Medici. The bathroom has no tub but the shower has 3 different heads with incredible power. You will not be disappointed if the strength of the shower is important to you. The blow dryer is terrible! Service is awesome! The food is the best in Florence! Dinner and breakfast.

Classic, beautiful hotel originally a monastery in the 1300's. Staff is exceptional and rooftop restaurant and bar offer impressive views. Only negative is some of the bathroom showers are combined with the bathtub, due to modernization limitations to a historic building.

Gia was exceptional. He went out of his way to make us feel welcome and went above and beyond for us. This boutique hotel is a must stay. The thoughtful architecture, atmosphere, and small details all stand out. The bedding was luxurious and comfortable and the shower and products were outstanding. We can’t wait to visit again soon. 5 stars.

Very clean comfortable room with great air conditioning. The bed was amazing and allowed us to sleep soundly in the dark room after traveling. The rooftop bar was a plus and and even hotel inside bar was great. Would definitely recommend this newer hotel. Staff were friendly and was in a walkable location to everything.

Our stay at Villa Medici wonderful. The staff was incredibly attentive and gracious. The pool was a relaxing oasis at which to cool down between our morning and late afternoon adventures...when the lounge chairs filled up the staff always produced more. The hotel was close enough to comfortably walk to the historic center but outside of hectic tourist areas. Thank you Villa Medici...every time I walked through the front door I felt like you had been awaiting my return.

This hotel was a great stay for us. The staff is super friendly and the breakfast delicious. The room was beautiful and the pillows very comfortable. They don't have a coffee pot in the room but the bar downstairs offers a variety of drinks. It's so close to the river and you can walk throughout the city if you like walking. The hop on hop off bus has a stop close to the hotel. We took a 5 minutes cab from the train station because of our luggage. We would stay here anytime!

I NEVER write a review, good or bad, and stay in some of the best hotels around. I had to make an exception, this is one of the best places I have ever stayed. The couple that owns the hotel are some of the kindest and considerate people I have ever met. The rooms are large and comfortable with modern day upgrades. Breakfast is amazing and the location is excellent. The owners went out of there way to make our stay comfortable and helpful with the sights around town. I can not say enough...

As much as reading reviews on line can help with decisions, I tend to trust people that I know to make suggestions when traveling to a new place for the first time. That is how I found this gem. I honestly cannot think of one negative thing to say about this property or the people that work there. Great location, good breakfast, nice bar. We did not eat dinner there, but the free breakfast was pretty complete and they sure know how to make a great cappuccino. The hotel staff was always friendly...

This was our second stay at this hotel. It is in great condition. The rooms are very comfortable and spacious. The breakfast is very nice as well....there is a wide range of options, all displayed beautifully. The best part about the hotel might be the location. It is in the heart of town, just steps from the Duomo but also seems off the beaten path and remains very quiet.

Everything about this property was unique and well thought. Appreciated the interior design and attention to art and finer details. Truly enjoyed the way in which the stone and wood from the ancient tower was incorporated into the design. the apartment did in fact feel luxurious and very efficient.
