Perfect stay in Tuscany

We spent 3 lovely days in Villa La Principessa. Location and old style hotel atmosphere was perfect! Very roomy hotel rooms, quiet sleeping on super matresses. Only bathroom was very tired and it calls for renovation.

Returned here after staying last year. Different room this year. Could hear the adjoining rooms quite clearly. Need some sound proofing. Pool area also needs updating as the wooden panel flooring has seen better days. Overall a good experience and would recommend.
