About the Hotel

Villa La Massa, managed by Villa d’Este Hotels, is a Medicean Villa located on the banks of the Arno River. It is recognized as one of the most charming hotels in the Chianti countryside of Florence. Linked to the city center by a daily courtesy shuttle, the hotel is a piece of heaven surrounded by lemon trees and olive groves. The hotel features 51 rooms, divided among five historic buildings: the Villa Nobile, the Mill, the Villino, the Casa Colonica and the Limonaia. The spirit of the Renaissance is still palpable in the first two villas decorated with sublime canopied beds, frescoes and tapestries, silks and brocades, while the other three are beautifully furnished in a more contemporary Florentine style. The gourmet restaurant “Il Verrocchio” offers the traditional Tuscan cuisine with over 400 labels of wine; its terrace overlooking the Arno River is a unique setting for romantic dinners. Overlooking the pool area L'Oliveto bistrot is a new culinary offering which is open for lunch. Named after surrounding olive trees, which are used to produce the hotel’s own olive oil, L’Oliveto occupies a former barn, which has been lovingly restored to offer relaxed Tuscan dining.

Reviews for Villa La Massa

5 stars from start to finish

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

Five star from start to finish! We had just left Ville D'Este, also a part of same hotel group and a LHW and the service here surpassed the service we received at Ville D'Este! We were greeted by Serena who was so lovely the entire time and made us feel so special and welcome! In fact everyone at this hotel had exceptional service!! Greeting us by name at breakfast and in the bar! Cosimo was extremely friendly and showed us the best service! The free shuttle back and forth into Florence - only 15 mins was perfect and the villa feeling was a retreat from the busy Ana hot city! We loved the spa so much we want to copy it for our own house one day!! The pool and the breakfast was just wow!!! What an incredible memory you left us and the hair products are so good I've ordered them to be shipped to me in LA.

An Unforgettable Stay at Villa La Massa

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 months ago

Our stay at Villa La Massa was truly unforgettable and exceeded all of our expectations. Even before our arrival, we were welcomed with exceptional care. Anastasia, who is in charge of events, and the wonderful Tamara, the hotel manager, supported us throughout every step of our wedding preparations with incredible dedication and kindness, taking care of every detail to ensure everything was exactly as we had dreamed. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality. Throughout our stay, every member of the staff was exceptionally kind, attentive, and always willing to help. The suites are beautiful, spacious, and extremely comfortable. Breakfast is delicious, with a wide variety of high-quality products. We also had the pleasure of enjoying two dinners at the hotel, both of which were impeccable. We would especially like to recognize Chef Stefano, who created an unforgettable wedding cake. Another highlight is the hotel’s shuttle service to the center of Florence, which is extremely convenient and works perfectly. Without a doubt, Villa La Massa was the perfect place to celebrate such an important moment for me and my family. We would especially like to thank Tamara for all her care and dedication throughout our wedding preparations and during our entire stay. We truly hope to return soon.

Although less than half an hour from the bustling city of Florence this hotel feels like your own private villa The property is stunning , the service very personal The rooms are beautiful and if you do want to go shopping they provide regular shuttle service to town ! For the galleries and the shops I loved this Tuscan hotel and would definitely revisit!

My wife and I have stayed at many 5 star hotels across Europe but Villa La Massa is by far the best we have experienced in Italy. If you are looking for a quiet and luxurious stay with the best food and service then this is definitely the place to go. Everything about this hotel was exceptional. We highly recommend.
