Pros:

The grounds were beautiful and the staff was very friendly! The view from the property overlooked Florence and a 12 min drive. They had shuttle service to Florence!

Cons:

We had a private cooking class there and it was not what we thought it would be. It was not the main chef.

Bom para quem quer passear de carro pela região da Toscana
Pros:

Check-in prático, localização boa para quem está de carro e quer circular pela Toscana (hotel fica fora de ZTL). Café da manhã é muito bom, com ótima variedade de alimentos, frutas e bebidas. É um local super tranquilo com bom contato com a natureza, tem um charme único. A vista do por do sol é linda, o hotel possui ambientes aconchegantes para aproveitar a natureza. Oferecem boas amenidades e chinelos para uso durante a estadia. Tem shuttle que leva e busca até próximo do centro da cidade, em horário comercial (último às 20h) - conforme agendamento no hotel ou por ligação. Motorista é gente boa e prestativo. Os funcionários foram simpáticos. Tem estacionamento incluso na hospedagem.

Cons:

Restaurante do hotel é caro e não foi dos melhores que frequentamos na cidade (carbonara com gosto forte de ovo), custo-benefício é ruim. No bar, custa 15 euros um aperol, preço bem mais elevado que o encontrado na região. Como o hotel fica distante do centro, seria um diferencial para os hóspedes se tivesse um melhor custo-benefício. A limpeza foi boa, mas esqueceram o lixo do quarto no banheiro. Não vimos elevador para descer com as malas. Tinha mosquitos e não havia inseticida no quarto. Luminária do lado da cama com luz branca é inaceitável pois afeta a qualidade do sono, mais um ponto que nunca encontramos em outros hotéis. Pressão da água oscilava durante o banho. Jardim parecia precisar de manutenção fora da área central, um pouco decepcionante. Pelo perfil do hotel, não esperávamos encontrar estes problemas.

Bellissimo edificio.
Pros:

Bellissimo edificio, giardino strepitoso.
Personale gentilissimo.
Ottima posizione per passeggiate nei dintorni.
A due passi da Piazzale Michelangelo.

Cons:

Ci hanno assegnato una camera nella dependance.
Molto piccola e poco luminosa.
Hanno detto che si trattava di un upgrade, ma le foto della camere originariamente prenotata erano molto diverse.

NIE WIEDER
Pros:

Ganz klar einen Punkt für die Gartenanlage und einen Punkt für den shuttle Service.

Cons:

Für 3 Tage gebucht. Wohl das schlechteste 4 Sterne Hotel, das ich je erlebt habe.
Das Zimmer hatte ca . 8 m2 plus Bad. Die Aussicht vom Fenster aus waren ein paar alte Dächer.
Das Badezimmer/die Heizung war mit dunkelbraunen grossen Flecken, wahrscheinlich von Rauchern. Die Kleinigkeit von Tissuetüchern gab es nicht. Eine Steckdose für elektrische Zahnbürsten gab es nicht.
Was als Schreibtisch im Zimmer dienen sollte, war eher eine Art Schminktisch,sehr hoch, mit dem Laptop arbeiten ging gar nicht. Kein Kugelschreiber oder Notizblock vorhanden.
Das Bett war ganze 80 bis 90 cm breit ( Zum Glück bin ich sehr schlank).
Das Restaurant (Essen) stand in keinem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.
Bei der Ankunft stand ein schlecht gelaunter Rezeptionist zur Verfügung, der sich Mühe gab, freundlich zu sein.
Das Frühstück war ok, Kaffee aus dem Automaten und wenn der Käse um 9.30 Uhr weg war, wurde nichts aufgefüllt.
Das Personal war stets bemüht, so freundlich, wie möglich zu sein.
Ich hatte den subjektiven Eindruck, dass das Personal nicht gerne dort arbeitet, aber gute Miene zum bösen Spiel machte.
Ich fühlte mich so unwohl dort, dass ich einen Tag früher abreiste.
