I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this hotel. This is my second time staying and both times have been exceptional. The hotels offers a beautiful view, features a FANTASTIC restaurant on site (buses drop groups off here for dinner!), and the staff are always wonderful. The rooms are large, as well as the bathroom. It's about 20 minutes outside of Florence and the hills are a steep climb, but it is most definitely worth it. The first time we visited, we had to walk from the bus stop all the way up and it was quite a hike; fortunately a gentleman offered to drive us up with our luggage. The second time we visited, we had a car so it was easier. There are two ways to drive up; the bus route is more direct and easier than the steep, winding, narrow local road.
