I'm not quite sure how to rate this place. As everyone says, the house is lovely and there's a great living room area for guests upstairs (though it does get very hot). Giuseppina was also very helpful. However, our bed was very wobbly and I slept really really badly while I was there. I kept waking up during the night... more

Management response from
BBVillaLaSosta, owner

Dear JVVW, we are disappointed to have read your review in tripadvisor.com and in response we would like to confirm some points with you. It is unfortunate that you did not make use of the air conditioning in the living room as this would have avoided the heat problem that you mentioned. Secondly the room in which you stayed was...

A charming B&B just far enough from the city to provide a quiet respite from museums and crowds. Antonio is a warm, proud and attentive host, filled with information and recommendations presented with Italian style. This is not a fussy, pristine showplace; it's a home with comfortable, well-furnished rooms and a pleasant garden atmosphere outside. A bus stop is conveniently... more

We flew into Florence airport on Monday and got a taxi to La Sosta villa, Antonio was there to greet us upon arrival. From that moment on he was a fountain of knowledge, giving us maps,detailed information on local restaurants,bus routes and anything else we needed. He proceeded also to give us a guided tour of his wonderful villa where... more

We stayed at Villa La Sosta for 4 nights, and both the B&B and our hosts (Giuseppina and Antonio) were OUTSTANDING !!! Spacious accomodations and warm atmosphere...the wine tour was the highlight of our time in Florence - Antonio is hilarious ! We would definitely stay at Villa La Sosta again. Fantastic !

My fiance and I stayed at Villa La Sosta for two nights in April and it was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! Guiseppina and Antonio were very accomodating and showed us how to get around the city and where to eat. We liked walking into town and then taking the bus back at the end of the... more

Just got back from a week stay at Villa la Sosta. While it is outside of the city center, it is a welcome refuge after a long day of "touristing." We walked to the Duomo in not much more than 30 minutes one day, and that included a few stops in little shops. The walk back up the hill at... more

We loved this place. Found it on Trip Advisor and particularly liked the idea of free parking. All the reviews are spot on. The place is traditional and cosey, and the owners are very welcoming. They couldn't have done more to look after us. Its in a lovely quiet spot, just out of town. We chose to leave the car... more

My husband and I spent our time in Florence on our honeymoon at Villa La Sosta based on the Tripadvisor reviews. We had a fabulous time! Our room was cozy and romantic. The grounds were beautiful and the brother/sister owners could not have been more accommodating. They gave us a map with all their favorite restaurants and off the beaten... more

We stayed at Villa La Sosta during two seperate trips we took to Florence this year. The inn owner, Antonio, has always made us feel very welcome and the inn itself is amazing! Each room is unique, clean and filled with antique furniture. The villa also has a large common room on the top level which overlooks the surroundings and... more
