Hotel Villa Fiesole

Fabulous location with far reaching city views yet far enough away to feel like you’re in the country. The rooms were tastefully decorated with everything you need including daily complimentary water. The bed was firm but with a memory foam topper and we slept like logs. On arrival we’d missed lunch but the staff couldn’t do enough to make our arrival special, setting up a table and providing a tasty and plentiful lunch. Breakfast was delicious and varied and lunches simple and tasty. Reception staff were readily on hand to help with taxis and we fully utilised the complimentary city shuttle transport every day. Nothing was too much trouble and my special thanks go to Francesca for all her help. Fiesole once rivalled Florence as the capital of Tuscany and is a few minutes drive to visit the archeological site, Medici villa and wonderful trattorias not to mention gorp at the enormous villas in the locale that clearly show Fiesole is the most affluent suburb of Florence. A superb week, excellent service, attentive staff, beautiful setting and swimming pool. Can’t recommend highly enough!

In all of my years traveling internationally, rarely have I come across a hotel that is exquisite in every detail of the property and offers a sense of family. Such is the Hotel Villa Fiesole located in the hills of Florence. The property host a Michelin rated restaurant. Their complimentary breakfast offers a variety of dishes to satisfy the palate of tourists from all over the world. As wonderful as their food is, it is the care and concern of their staff. Since we are originally from San Francisco, we immediately had a bond with Nikola who manages their all important breakfast. Nikola treats everyone, not just us, as though they were his relatives. An amazingly caring individual, as is his colleague Joseph, who fills in wherever needed. I will return to this hotel because I want to see my distant newfound family.

What an amazing stay. This hotel is beautiful and the room that we had was fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed our time relaxing on property either on our balcony, by the pool or on the patio of the restaurant every morning during breakfast (which was delicious!). Overall such a wonderful stay at a beautiful property and all for a reasonable price. Lastly, a shoutout to Nicola who was such an unbelievably helpful and enjoyable person to be around as he took care of my partner and I in the best way he could every time he saw us. Whether it was remembering our favorite orderevery morning or simply bringing a good energy to the hotel he truly made the experience even better than it already was.

The staff is exceptional. They catered of all of our needs and were exceptionally polite and accommodating. Everyone was so kind and welcoming! 10/10 would recommend. The breakfast was plentiful. The outdoor seating was comfortable and very beautiful. It was a perfect location, not too far from Florence but quiet and serene.

I’ve been to Florence 3 times, and this was my first time staying here. I absolutely loved it! The staff are so welcoming and warm. Jetmir at the reception was incredible with preparing flowers and an amazing room for my girlfriend’s birthday. Nicola at the bistrot was amazing, he organised dinner for us with the best menu, a fantastic wine pairing. And was so accommodating for breakfasts. It is for these two people that we would like to return in July for an extended stay
