Hotels Near Villa Medici at Careggi in Florence

A Tuscan escape, private villa style experience, great service, very attentive and extremely pleasant staff, great breakfast, lunch and dinner, beautiful pool, landscape, views of hills and city of Florence. Need a car to be able to go anywhere, or be willing to be a bit adventurous and take a public bus that stops nearby on the highway and requires a bus change to go to Florence, but on the way back goes directly to the resort from Florence (you need to learn the name of your stop and tell the bus driver to stop there, as busses only stop if they see people waiting at the stop or if a ypassenger requires it). The busses run every 20-30 min according to the time schedule (you will be given it) and take about 10-15 min to get to and from Piazza dela Liberta in Florence (look it up on Google map). Taxis are always available, will cost about €30 per trip (10-15 min ride). Remember, this is a villa style resort outside of Florence. It was beautiful, we loved it.

The hotel is new, has great bed sheets, towels etc. The staff is great. Location is ok, it will take you 20 minutes to walk to tourist districts. Took breakfast once, it’s not bad, but there are no hot options (like omelette or scrambled eggs etc), there are basically just pastries and cold cuts. There are few coffee shops around that I enjoyed. The complimentary tea station is located in every floor of the hotel, so there is no tea or coffee in the room (there is no free coffee, but you can order it at a bar) All in all, I liked it. It’s very new, very clean and very friendly.

This is undoubtedly one of the best hostels I have stayed in in Italy and I’ll tell you what happened. Basically I was quite late to check in and checked in only at around 6:45 pm in the evening and initially the room I was offered had only upper beds left and all the lower berths had been occupied. Gaia at the reception was so kind  she actually looked up all the rooms available and suggested after almost looking up for 30 minutes as to where she could place me as I did not want to sleep on an apple bed she gave me another room which was room number 13 and I had originally booked for an eight bedroom but I paid a little bit extra to get into this four bedroom and I was very happy because the room was speaking span. There was ample space and bathroom and toilet was separate which meant it could be used by two people at the same time, conveniently, especially in the mornings when people are in a rush and the plug points were very ideally placed! I loved staying here and even paid €10 for a very fancy breakfast! I’d love to come here again.

A very updated hotel with a unique shower as shown in picture. It is conveniently located. Outside our room was a view of the tram station. We did not take it because the hotel is just a 10 minute walk to the city centre. We loved the breakfast as there was a pancake making machine.

Clean hotel that is very near the train station - we walked with our heavy luggage and did not face any issues. There's an amazing Indian restaurant called haveli 50 metres from this hotel - we had tons of Italian food on our trip and went to haveli for dinner one time and it was amazing to try indian food in italy.

Very pleased with my stay. Hotel kindly upgraded me from a Single Room to a Double Room in low season in November, which is really nice. The room is spacious, with good natural light, double glazed windows and good ventilation/air con/heating. Toilet with stand shower is of a good size as well, not too small and cramped. Hotel location is super close to the central station in Florence, around 5 mins walk only to it, which is very ideal for travellers arriving into Florence by rail. It's slow walkable to pretty much all attractions (within 15-25 mins), so is a good place to base yourself in for a short stay. Similar to many hotels in Italy, there are a few steps at the entrance but there is a lift to get you up to your room. Check-in process is smooth and complimentary breakfast is decent. I especially love the coffee and jucie machine and pancakes offered. It'd be great if besides scrambled eggs, some kind of breakfast meats like sausages can also be offered. They do have some basic cold cuts and cheese and ham as well, yogurt, and cornflakes, it's a more diverse continental breakfast, which is great for a 3 Star Hotel. As the hotel is very close to the Train Station, you do hear trains / trams passing through from the streets, but the noise level is acceptable with the double glazed windows' insulation. I would recommend this hotel for solo travellers.

Nice hotel near train station for 5mins walk , clean and tidy , Staffs are really helpful and polite . But breakfast seems not enough choices . But it is still ok to enjoy

The front office team is outstanding. Didn't manage to get his name, he was on duty on the night(9/7/2024) we checked in. Extremely patience and fed us with info. Alberto who seems to be the front office manager have been very accommodating. Thank you team. Location is great, steps from Firenze S.M.N and to most tourist spots. Will stay at the property if we visit Florence again.

Very near to the train station, skip the breakfast and u r better off with breakfast at Mac which is opposite the hotel. Do note that reception knocks off at 10pm, but it’s ok. They will teach u how to open the gate. Room was super huge, not sure if they gave us an upgrade. Clean and comfortable

The location could not be any better. And the room we had was very nice. Think we got upgraded to a cozy double. We didn't have breakfast as we thought it was a little over priced at 18 euros. The minibar didn't have any prices so we assumed it was free but we were asked if we had anything when we checked out. We lied and said no and got away with it. So if it was meant to be free then massive thanks! If not then you need to put prices on it :)
