Just returned from ten days in Florence and Rome. This hotel was our first stop. The rooms were clean and spacious and we had a lovely view of the garden, mind you it wasn't cheap! On arrival we received mixed advice about parking our hire car . It transpired that if the hotel parks the car for you in the... more

Belated review- Stayed here with my parents for 4 nights back in April. I booked through AMEX Platinum's Fine Hotels program. Maybe that was the reason, or maybe the hotel service is always this excellent, but we were treated like VIPs throughout our stay. Upon arrival, we were upgraded to a 5th-floor deluxe suite, with a welcome platter of fresh... more

I booked a penthouse room. The view from the terrace was wonderful, you could see the Duomo and the Palazzo Vecchio tower and all the mountains surrounding the city. The room itself was very traditional and comfortable and the bathroom was marble, (although could do with a little tlc, our shower screen didn't seal and therefore water leaked onto the... more

My 20 year old daughter and I stayed at the hotel for 5 days and loved everything about it! I lived in Italy for a while and she was also living there at the time, so we wanted a hotel that authentically reflected Florence and Europe. We definitely got more than we paid for! The hotel is the perfect distance... more

A fantastic hotel The staff could not have been more gracious and helpful. We had a room that smelled of smoke on our first night and they fell over themselves to change our room to a non smoking room. We ate at the restuarant for the first night and the food was exceptional, as was breakfast. A1 hotel. more

My husband and I recently stayed at the Villa Medici and we were very impressed! We drove to Florence, so driving-wise it was perfect - there was a big parking lot out front that wasn't too pricey to park in for the night. The hotel itself is about a 7 minute walk to the Duomo, and parts of the walk... more

Perfect location away from the traffic noise. In walking distance of the main shopping area. Staff were wonderful and our room on the 5th floor had a magnificent view of the city. It also had a balcony with loungers so one could relax on the patio. Gorgeous patio downstairs outside for dining and lounge bar attached. Room was quiet .... more

A travel agent booked two nights at the Villa Medici during a weeklong tour through Tuscany (the first and last nights of the trip). After reading reviews on tripadvisor, I was regretting the decision. However, we were delighted when we arrived at the hotel. The staff made an effort to have a room ready for us when we arrived at... more

Just stayed with family and had a very nice time. Staff are knowledgeable and helpful, rooms are stylish, and the pool although small is quite nice after a day of touring. The only negatives are that the location is slightly removed from the sights and the beds are NOT very comfortable. more
