Maybe I had an off visit at this B&B. The room was fine--clean, quiet, etc--and the location was good (on the other side of the river, but walkable & nice). But, alas, after being home a couple of weeks I decided to write in case it helps someone else make a decision. I was traveling alone and felt ... awkward..... More

We arrived at the B&B in the early afternoon to find that it is located on the 2nd floor (no lift). It wasn't an issue for us but wish we'd have known. Vary, the chef and innkeeper spent 40 minutes with us to determine our culinary preferences for the private dinner that she was preparing for us the following evening.... More

By now you have read, and re-read all of the reviews (I know I did before I booked). Please, let me be the voice of clarity and reason. Do you travel to Europe all the time? Are you a travel aficionado? Well, I do not travel and am NOT an expert. I was on my honeymoon and I just wanted... More

My husband and I stayed here and it did not live up to the expectations we had read about in reviews. We found the owner Vary to be insulting and opinionated. We didn't not appreciate the negative comments she made about the sight seeing activities we choose. The food was ok, nothing special. In the dinning area there are large... More

We're so glad that we stayed with Vary and Edoardo again on our recent trip. They're always so nice and helpful, and Vary's dinners and breakfasts are excellent. This time, we brought 2 friends with us to stay in the second room, and they enjoyed it, as well. This is a quiet part of Florence, just across from the Boboli... More

Chef, and B&B owner, Vary, made the best meals we had during our 10 day stay in Italy. I HIGHLY recommend staying here. Vary and Edo will be long-time friends by the time you leave. The location is is perfect, right in the heart of Venice. You can walk to all the sights. We won't stay anywhere else on our... More

Giglio Bianco is a cozy B&B found within minutes of the train station, an easy walk to the city center featuring adorable rooms and hosts with most! Tucked away in what seems like a random alleyway, this gem featured everything a honeymooning couple could want. Vary and Edoardo welcome you with open arms, explain how to get around and show...

What a great place to stay....so charming and great location. Your hosts couldn't be more helpful or friendly, definitely treat you like one of the family. The room was cozy and inviting and the bathroom was fairly large and spotlessly clean. With all that, the best part are the meals....Chef Vary cooks an amazing breakfast to order and definitely GET... More

Edo and Chef Vary run this B&B to the highest of standards. I highly recommend the cooking class and the dinner as it was the best meal I had in Italy. The daily breakfast is delectable and served in a room that has a beautiful view into the Boboli Gardens. The location is very convenient for all travelers. The hosts... More
