Castiglione d'Orcia Vacations from ￥232,172

Hotel location is excellent. Near Firenze SMN station and all tourists attraction can be reached by walking. Small room size, no fridge/kettle in the room. Bed is comfortable but pillows are flat. Good breakfast.

Villa Cora was delightful in every way. The only negative thing I have to say is that I am not currently still there. Alas, I would highly recommend Villa Cora as a jumping off point for your Tuscan or Firenze adventures.

Room as immaculately clean. Steam shower was amazing. A little annoyed about the A/C, it turns off when you leave the room, so it didn’t stay cool in our room when we were gonna all day. Spa access was a lil confusing, it wasn’t use as you wish, you had to reserve a slot in a 3hr window which was at dinner time. This resulted in us only using the spa once. Breakfast had a wide selection, with a small cook to order menu. Was delicious and quick. Bed was extremely comfortable. Tram station for the T2 line was right in front of the hotel, when coming from the airport you have change T1 line to T2 line, but very simple.

This hotel space is a recent renovation of an old building. It was very convenient to access anything in old Florence. The room is as spacious and the bed comfortable, however we had to request a room change as the street noise was not blocked by the window at all. We figured that insulation around the window was non-existent. Also, the doors and walls were thin and we could hear any noises in the hallway and adjacent rooms. Our second room was more quiet, looking out over a central open area, used mainly for piping and maintenance equipment. The bathrooms were a good size with a dimly lit shower area. Breakfast was limited but the food was fresh (cereals, hard boiled eggs, cheese, croissants, cakes and decent coffee). Overall, we were satisfied with the room but wished we had spent more for a stay at a higher rates property.
