Firenze hotellit Gavinana-Galluzzo

Plussat: Staff, closeness to the major sites, fabulous breakfast, free parking (!!!), Happy hour, bed.

Miinukset: Traffic noise, but if you have the windows closed it's silent.

Plussat: Loved the happy hour with free drinks and delicious food. Wish we had stayed longer at this hotel. Friendly Staff, service and very clean.

Plussat: Staff was amazing and extremely helpful with explaining the buses and recommending restaurants

Plussat: Everything was great. This was the best hotel we stayed throughout Italy. We both wished we could take this Hotel and wonderful staff with us everywhere we visited!

Miinukset: I, personally, would like the hotel to give better directions to the hotel automatically without asking. The GPS (which worked everywhere else in Italy) said we reached our destination about 1 mile away. We were lucky to find someone to help.

Plussat: There was absolutely nothing to dislike about Hotel David. I loved that the hotel was away from the crowds, but still within easy walking distance to major attractions, and the bus was right outside the door. The staff were extremely helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Our room was AMAZING, and we had a huge balcony with view of the Duomo in the distance. Sitting out there with a glass of wine after a long day walking was just wonderful. The added bonus was free Happy Hour including food which was a great way to meet other travellers. I would definitely recommend a Hotel David!

Miinukset: Nothing, it was fabulous!

Plussat: For my stay in this hotel i have learned one important thing that is nothing matter as much as people gabriel thank you for my lovely 2 nights that i have spent with you guys.

Miinukset: Location is Ok

Plussat: Wonderful little buffet breakfast. We got down to the buffet with time to spare but the restaurant had run out of fried eggs; the chef cooked up some for us! Machine style espresso and coffee maker, but it still provided good coffee! :) Easy access to across the bridge to the Duomo and train station! We would definitely stay there again!

Miinukset: We would have liked to have figured out how to make the room darker- there were no black out shades that we could figure out. It just made for a little bit of an early start in the morning but we did take advantage of the extra time!

Plussat: Charming hotel. Very clean, great staff. A short 1/2 mile bus trip to the old city.

Plussat: The room, the staff and the happy hour. The location was a 30 minute walk to the centre alongside the river. Free parking a real bonus

Miinukset: There was nothing we did not like about our two night stay and will be recommending to anyone we know visiting Florence.

Plussat: Hieno kylpyhuone, erittäin ystävällinen henkilökunta.

Miinukset: ?

Plussat: Property was picturesque and beautiful--I absolutely loved the garden! Hotel provided shuttle to the city which was convenient as I would not drive in the city and taxis were expensive. Bed was extremely comfy and staff were pleasant.

Plussat: Mario and staff were incredible. We look forward to staying here again. Absolutely wonderful hotel.

Plussat: So beautiful! The grounds have spectacular views and beautiful gardens! The food was very good and staff very helpful! Loved our stay here!

Miinukset: Would have liked better air conditioning and fluffy pillows.

Plussat: Fantastic gardens with spectacular views. Really useful to have the shuttle service (although there is also a nice walk into the city from the hotel).

Plussat: The hotel was set in picturesque surroundings. Remnants of the old monastery are still visible in places, having such a calming effect, as you enter the gardens and buildings.

Miinukset: Reaching the hotel from the city centre, was more complex than expected, as we travelled by bus to Piazzale Michelangelo. We followed the directions mentioned on the hotel website, although we fell foul of the ticket scam on the No12 bus and was fined 100 euros for not having tickets prior to boarding the bus. Once we reached the Piazzale Michelangelo we then had to contact the hotel to pick us up in the shuttle bus. Disappointed to find the hotel does not have a restaurant, so had to use the shuttle bus to take us back to the centre, so we can have a meal.

Plussat: Mahtavat näkymät huoneen ikkunasta puutarhaan. Aamiainen oli mahtava.

Miinukset: Ruokatarjonta voisi olla parempi.

Plussat: Upea henkilökunta, hienot maisemat, tyylikäs rakennus, ilmainen kuljetuspalvelu keskustaan ja takaisin.

Miinukset: Wc olisi voinut olla tilavampi.

Plussat: The staff was great. Mario was the best manager! The hotel is beautiful with gorgeous gardens. We will go again

Plussat: Friendly and helpful staff, beautiful grounds, clean and quiet. Shuttle service made staying out if town quite easy. Hated to leave, hope to go back!

Miinukset: Can’t think of a thing.

Plussat: Very beautiful and nice garden, for summer time especially. Two nice jacuzzis, free shuttle to city center and close to city view spot. Staff was very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was also very good, with many options. The room was lite, but cozy. The hotel also had free private parking.

Miinukset: The room we got didn’t have any view at all, if you want to stay at this hotel try to get a room with a view.

Plussat: Excellent location, staff were exceptional with their customer service and help throughout our stay. It made our holiday in Italy truly memorable.

Plussat: Staff was great :)

Plussat: Such a lovely welcome. They are proud of their family run hotel. Couldn’t do enough for us.

Plussat: The food here was excellent. We had dinner and the chef is excellent.

Miinukset: We paid a lot for a suite and wanted a romantic weekend away. Sadly it was ruined by a noisy wedding. There are no private spaces in this Villa if they are holding a wedding. Also our suite was very dark and had no view at all.

Plussat: The facilities were exquisite and the views were magnificent!

Plussat: Amazing staff and facilities, the breakfast and dinner was magnificent

Plussat: The building looked beautiful, and it was close to the Tuscan country side. Staff was very helpful and the food was really good.

Miinukset: There isn't really much negative things to say here, however I would improve the shuttle service to different locations, ex the Terminal. Also, TV has to have more English channels , that helps relax after a long day of walking.

Plussat: The Villa was a beautiful spot to view and also walk to the city of Florence. At night we walked down the street to Michelangelo Square. The breakfast was the best we had in Europe and the omelette delicious. Our deluxe room was a beautiful two room suite with a wonderful jacuzzi bathtub. We loved our stay in Florence at the Villa!

Miinukset: The only reason I would not recommend this beautiful Villa to my friends and family is that we booked our three night stay here in July and the first night we were given the room in a separate building by the driveway. No view and no natural light because to have ANY privacy you had to shut ALL the drapes! For $480 a night! The host had no other rooms available and told me I could pay a $50 upcharge for the next two nights when there was availability. Very unprofessional of the host when I returned to speak with him that I was given a sub par room after booking in July. He was silent and did not apologize and made the comment that on my booking it said view or garden view. Garden View! It was probably the garage before they converted it in 2009! After contacting booking.com I let my husband deal with the snooty and unprofessional supposed host in securing our transfer the next day to one of the Grand Deluxe rooms we PAID FOR IN JULY!! They charged our credit card in July and no cancellation and then gave us the carriage house room the first night of our stay there. I believe we should have gotten a discounted rate for our first night but DID NOT WANT TO DEAL WITH the host! I would not recommend this Villa because I could not trust the staff to accommodate what you paid for two months in advance! If I did not have booking.com to back me up and get our room for the next two nights NO UPCHARGEI I would have cancelled our stay there and had our card company get our money back! FOR SUCH A FINE VILLA I KNOW SOMEONE DROPPED THE BALL IN GIVING US THE GARDEN VIEW. A simple apology and discount say $150 -200 off would have been fair and good policy for a fine hotel!

Plussat: It was beautiful clean and views wee stunning

Miinukset: Our room was a bit smaller than expected

Plussat: The views from the gardens and all of the terraces surrounding the hotel. The convenience of their shuttle bus into the centre of Florence.

Miinukset: The bedrooms are tired and let the hotel down, they are in serious need of an upgrade to meet 5X's.

Plussat: Breakfast was fine. The staff generally are friendly and professional. The location is great--on site parking and a 15 minute walk to Ponte Vecchio. There is a useful hotel shuttle which runs regularly down to the center. Being well above the city, the air is more pleasant than in the city center.

Miinukset: On check out, the porter was busy so I carried my bags myself.

Plussat: Huone on hieno, siisti ja tilava. Hotellin terassilta upea näköala kohti Firenzea. Aamupala todella hyvä ja monipuolinen. Viihtyisä allasalue. Henkilökunta ystävällistä ja palveluhenkisiä. Shuttlekuljetus keskustaan ja takaisin toimi hyvin, hieno lisä, vaikka ei hotellin mitenkään kaukana keskustasta olekaan.

Plussat: the old world feel in the rooms.

Miinukset: The interior in the public spaces could use some serious attention! It feels cheap and not on the level of a genuine 5 star hotel. Overall needs tasteful direction and overhaul. Restaurant bill for 2 was almost 90 euros for 2 glasses of wine, 2 pastas, and 1 dessert. Each glass of house wine they offered me was 16 euros each. I have dined at many restaurants in Italy ranging from michelin star to amazing local family restaurants therefore I am quite confident to say this was expensive for what is was. The food was standard for what you can expect in any decent Italian kitchen however you can head down the road to find many nicer restaurants that will be over half the price for the same thing. Moreover the interior of the restaurant feels like a cheap Chinese restaurant with an interior inspired by Versace in the 90's.

Plussat: It’s Florence at 100%, the view is top very quiet location

Miinukset: The interior of the restaurant

Plussat: Fantastic pool, great staff, free shuttle downtown. incredible views of florence

Plussat: I hawe have had an amazing stay at le villa piazzole it is the most wonderful place and I will definitely be back - the view will stay with me forever.

Miinukset: Nothing I loved it all

Plussat: Best place if you wanna stay near Florance and tuscany, rooms nice, stuff was very welcome. Thanks I will come again

Miinukset: Breakfast need more things, this place has also wineyard so it's better they can arrange a welcome tour and wine tasting for guest who stay in hotel in firts day or second day.. Without appointment. They need 24 hour reception.

Plussat: Rooms had so much character. The Prata room was like a small apartment. The grounds were beautiful.

Miinukset: No restaurant on site and not too many restaurants walking distance.

Plussat: This was the best place we've stayed at in Italy! Great location - tuscany at it's best, beautiful scenery, but very close to Florence center. Great rooms, fully equipped, very comfortable, lovely swimming pool, friendly and helpful staff.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The whole place was very characterful. Really nicely done and a relaxed atmosphere.

Miinukset: I expected a restaurant and bar so more of a traditional hotel feel but it wasn't like this. The lady running the place prepared food on request which was great.

Plussat: I absolutely love the hospitality and uniqueness of the resort. the hotel showed its culture and staff was very accommodating. They brought out complimentary wine when we were socializing in the evening with our out of the country family and friends for my daughters wedding.

Miinukset: Due to the season, they were quite of bit of bees and other insects.

Plussat: The property is breathtaking! Very quiet and removed front noise and crowds. Historical buildings and gardens, family owned. Good restaurants within a few km so you don’t have to go into Florence unless you want to.

Miinukset: Obviously you must have a car to stay this far out of town but that’s what makes it so beautiful.

Plussat: Huone oli kuin kuvissa. Sijainti ja itse rakennus sekä villaa ympäröivä puutarha oli ihastuttava. Näköala ikkunasta oli juuri sellainen kuin Toscanassa parhaimmillaan. Kävelymatka Firenzen keskustaan vei 45min, jollei matkalla unohtunut ihailemaan maisemia, kuvaamaan taloja tai kukkivia puita.

Miinukset: Olisin toivonut majoituspaikkaan kahvilan/ravintolan, josta olisi saanut illalla lasin viiniä ja palan juustoa.

Plussat: Lovely staff. Beautiful gardens. Super comfortable beds. Gorgeous view from balcony. Giant room. Great bathroom with soaker tub. Neat amenities (toiletries). Delicious breakfast with many choices. Fresh flowers in bud vases & little welcoming touches everywhere.

Miinukset: Tennis courts not well kept. Extraordinarily loud buzzer noise that sounded every time someone crossed the threshold... regardless of time of day or night.

Plussat: The location and the staff.

Miinukset: Recurrent internet connection problem.

Plussat: The best part of the hotel is the staff. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. The room was nice, clean and the bed was surprisingly comfortable. Breakfast was great, with a lot of options, including eggs. The bar is nice and welcoming and the snacks are great!

Miinukset: Location is a little tough if one is walking as it is a bit up the hill. Internet is not great, at least in the rooms.

Plussat: It overlooks the valley and it looks like a nice Villa until you got there

Miinukset: The bedrooms were filled with mosquitoes they sprayed but they still bit you you could smell the spray all over the Villa the staff got mad if you complained about the mosquitoes the parking was not great they made us move our car we got over 100 mosquito bites while we slept this is the worst hotel or villa we ever stayed in we stayed in hundredths I would recommend no one stay here we got sick from this mosquito bites really bad and the staff did not help us

Miinukset: I did not book this accomodation, i told the hoster that its a scam or sth. like that. ive no idea how anybody can hack my account and book this room and how booking.com can solve this problem once the mistake is recognized. i would like to know if someone showed up and stayed in the accomodation for real.

Plussat: Our balcony view over Florence was gorgeous. Our room was immaculately clean and a good size. Breakfast was lovely, homemade cakes and fabulous staff. It’s evidently a family run hotel and all the staff were friendly and very helpful. This isn’t a modern boutique hotel but it has charm and shows care. Perhaps some of the reception rooms could be updated but they are clean and comfortable.

Miinukset: Whilst our room was a lovely size the bathroom was small and dated with a just about adequate shower over the bath .... but it was very clean. It is a long walk into Florence, easier downhill than uphill on your way back after a long day sightseeing! Be prepared to budget for readily available taxis or buses. But you do get the benefit of the views, peace and quiet, and a good cardio work out!

Plussat: Restourant and room service staf

Miinukset: Old, not clean!!! You have feeling to be watched 24 hours by the owners (two generations).

Plussat: The breakfast
