Empolese Val d'Elsa Ski Vacations

Good vibe and great location!!

Front desk staff are helpful. Breakfast room attendants are good. Food is average.

Great breakfast buffet and menu options

The room was clean and the staff very accommodating. The breakfast was quite sufficient and had a good variety. The location is great. It's a short walk from the square, shopping and from restaurants.

We stayed at Il Malaspina for 6 days this April and everything about the hotel was perfect! We got there early on check in day and they held our luggage while we went out to lunch. When we returned not only was our room ready, but our luggage was already in the room waiting for us. Housekeeping cleaned the room daily and left it immaculate. The first night our room was a little warm for me and I couldn’t figure out how to get it cooler. Went to the front desk the next day and they are able to control each rooms temperature, so the rest of our stay the room temp was just right. Now the breakfast, omg the breakfast! A huge variety and so so good. You feel like you are at an upscale restaurant and there is such a good variety we didn't get tired of it even after a week. In fact, I am really missing the pistachio croissants now that we are home! Hot eggs, bacon, sausage every day, plus a wide variety of cold meats and cheeses. Yogurt, tons of pastries, toast with many toppings, and probably many things I’m forgetting. Plus a variety of juices and a very fancy self service coffee machine that can make about 8 different drinks. The hotel is in walking distance to every thing in Florence, longest walk was about 40 min to Piazzele Michaelangelo but so worth it, don’t miss sunset there when visiting! Very convenient to SM Novella train station for traveling outside of Florence, but far enough it feels extremely safe at all times of day and night. Cannot recommend Il Malaspina enough!

Amazing breakfast and great wait staff. Excellent location for walking downtown.

Enjoyed a wonderful stay at the Villa Sul'Arno in early April. The accommodation was amazing, a beautifully conceived and comfortable junior suite with a balcony overlooking the river. The rooms were peaceful and calming, ideal for relaxing. The breakfasts were delicious with a wide range of great fresh produce. Staff were incredibly helpful throughout our stay. Although a little further from the historic centre we found the location to be wonderful next to the river. The hotel runs a courtesy shuttle bus, which is quick and convenient. Food at the restaurant id excellent and room service is speedy and served quickly and directly. The spa and pools were well thought out and aesthetically stunning and a joy to use. The gym is compact, but still functional. I would happily recommend the Villa Sul'Arno and am certainly going to return. Thank you to Claudia and the Team for looking after us so well.

Wonderful hotel. Great location. Amazing breakfast with a very nice and helpful staff
