This place is a little outside of Florence but it is exceptional. You can walk to Zambra train station and catch a train into Florence for 1.60 Euros. The train station Santa Maria Novella is right down town Florence. The breakfast here was included and it was excellent. lots of variety and very good coffee. We checked out at 11:00 but our flight to Athens wasn’t until 6:30. Our luggage was stored by the hotel staff, we were given pool towels and spent the day by the pool, with tons of shade and on the beautiful grounds here. The front desk arranged a shuttle to the airport for us. The little pool restaurant opens up for dinner at 7:00 and the food was great. Pasta, pizza and a bottle of wine was 52 Euros.

Lovely property, places to sit or walk and enjoy all the beautiful plantings. Nice bar/restaurant for a beer or cocktail and the pizza was really good, great crust! Huge beautiful pool area. Only complaint, bring your own pillow especially if you like small fluffy ones. Would definitely recommend for couples or families with children. Had a castle for kids to play in and little hobbit houses.

My room has a large amount of tiny ants that were coming in from a crack by the bathroom wall. Before realizing the ants, we had brought some snacks and left them on the desk for later. Well later came and once we got back from dinner, we saw the ants completely conquered the snacks and we had to throw them all out due to the infestation. I told the front desk and showed pics and videos and after showing him the room, nothing was done to fix it. Upon checkout, I explained my dissatisfaction and they covered my €16 tourist tax fee as an apology. On top of the ant issue, they have a large parking lot but they had a big wedding at the time of my stay so non-paying guest took up all the parking space and it made it really difficult for us. The noise was absolutely ridiculous as the wedding was in the middle of the hotel area so the hotel guest had to deal with that ruckus as well. The property is pretty, just wish it had a little better of a turnout.

The staff was yelling at each other when we arrived. When we checked in they had a totally different price and they argued with us even though we had the expedida receipt. They tried to charge for city taxes though the receipt included the taxes. The place is noisy (next to a soccer stadium) and isn’t convenient to anything - including the airport. Super irritated.

Soggiorno rilassante circondato dal verde

La struttura è dotata di un bel parco. La camera presentava scrostature alle pareti ed il riscaldamento non funzionava. Ci sarebbe da fare un po' di manutenzione.
