Had a wedding reception here recently and it was just stunning, the hotel, the surroundings and oh my god the views!! In the build up to everything the staff couldn't have been more helpful and the day itself went off without a hitch and needless to say a good time was had by all!! :)

Superlative service and accomodations in a very magical setting; certainly one of the most special places I have stayed in over two decades of globetrotting. Florence is itself special but staying at the Villa La Vedetta will change the way you look at Florence completely. One on the points I keep repeating to my staff is to make the customer... More

We wanted to visit Florence for 3 days but we did not want to be in the heart of the town since we had a car. We stayed at Villa la Vedetta, and just loved it. It is a mansion with 18 rooms very quaint and relaxing. It sits above the Florene so you have a wonderful view of the... More

A fantastic hotel in an ideal setting. Spectacular views over Florence from the terrace and the convenience of a shuttle bus to drop and pick up by the Ponte Vecchio. The staff were extremely helpful and everywhere was very clean. We will certainly be back.

This hotel used to be a mini-castle and has the relevant architecture, view, location and great furnishing! The hotel is not located in the centre, but over the hill next to Piazzale Michelangelo and it is about 15-20 walking distance to the historical centre. I saw different types of rooms and I would suggest to book city-view room as they... More

Incredible view overlooking Florence. If you are in decent shape, walking into Florence is fairly easy, else a shuttle is provided to the City entrance. Shuttles do not run all the time so check to see when if you think you will need one. Also, the cost of a taxi to and from is reasonable. The rooms were very nice.... More
