Wonderful boutique hotel near Piazzale Michelangelo in Florence. Rooms are beautifully decorated, staff are friendly and the views from the terrace are absolutely incredible. Would definitely stay again. We ate in the restaurant during our stay, and on the advice of the waiter, booked the tasting menu. Despite me being pregnant and therefore having a list as long as my...

I have just got back from a trip to Tuscany we booked a night in Florence and 2 nites in Chianti. Upon arrival we were treated like Royalty with a free room upgrade to a deluxe suite. The room was stunning and we had a complimentary bottle of prosecco on arrival. The hotel recommended a restaurant and arranged a taxi... More

We just returned from a fuill week at Villa La Vedetta and want to compliment the staff, particularly Laura, Valentina, Serena and Mimo, for their exceptional dedication to guest service and their wide-ranging knowledge of the city. We were a family of five traveling on a multi-stop Eurpean tour and the hotel was one of the absolute highlights of our... More

As we made our way to the hotel by car, I was concerned about traffic. What a wonderful hotel with good parking. We were concerned about the drive into town, but it was not a problem, particularly with the shuttle and the helpfulness of the staff. The hotel was beautiful and we enjoyed the views of downtown Florence. The only... More

We arrived at La Vedetta at the peak of afternoon trafic and it was a real pleasure to pass the gate and discover a quiet environment in a beautiful setting. We booked thru Relais et Chateaux and the room was exactly as described. No bad surprise. Excellent breakfast buffet style with complete a la carte for special request. Sitting in... More

We loved this hotel. The concierge was extremely helpful and the location allows you to walk to a few cafes and easily get down into the Florence center. Parking was easy and convenient. It is much less expensive to take drinks from the mini bar to the terrace...than ordering drinks on the terrace. Wireless is very spotty except in the... More

I recently had the pleasure of staying one short night at this wonderful hotel. I had heard that it had an amazing view of the city and decided to check it out... WOW! I wasn't disappointed. I live in the heart of the city, and I do not get to experience the outside of Florence very often. Near the pool... More

We spent three weeks traveling across Europe and saw our fair share of fabulous hotels, but this was one of our favorites. The property has been immaculately maintained and the view from being perched atop Piazza Michelangelo is stunning. While strolling through Florence, we heard many tourists advise us that we MUST check out the view from this spot...we always... More

We spent three nights at the Villa. The staff were very helpful and friendly, the room was luxurious, the facilities extremely clean and well looked after and it is difficult to see how there could be a better location overlooking Florence. The shuttle to to and from the town was a very thoughtful and valuable provision. The food was of... More
