The achingly beautiful Tuscany region of Italy is a touchstone of art, food, and culture. Made up of stunning countryside and distinguished cities, Tuscany is the perfect escape for gastronomes, cognoscenti, and fans of the Italian Renaissance. Visit the stunning Roman Catholic cathedrals and galleries of Florence and Arezzo, or make your way to Pisa to see its hallmark Leaning Tower. A bike tour through olive groves and vineyards is a popular way to literally breathe in the Tuscan atmosphere.

For the businessman traveller, for the tourist, for who loves to dive into cultural and beautiful Florentine treasuries; for short term visits and for long permanences, FORTE16 offers the best solution for everyone providing its vaste and various apartment styles and modalities, just 15 minutes walking from Florence's Duomo.
Fantastic place in a great location, just a short walk from all the main sights but in an area with a lot of character and full of great little restaurants and bars. Found the staff very friendly and the rooms were clean, the beds very comfortable and the shower was incredible. It was good to have the fridge and kitchen and even a decent coffee machine (had to ask for a few extra cartridges). The pool is small but the spa area is nice and good for relaxing. Only criticism of this place is we thought it was a bit rubbish to have to pay extra for the rooftop jacuzzi. The hotel isn’t cheap so this felt a bit of a rip-off and we didn’t use it. But would definitely return here.

We’ve spent 6 days at Castel Brunello with our baby and had a great time there. The whole building is in an excellent condition, extremely clean and has a stunning location with a great view. The host Erna is very friendly, also with the baby, and provides many good recommendations and helps with reservations for wine tastings, restaurant etc. The breakfast provides everything needed for a great start into the day. The apartments are spacious, the beds are comfortable and overall it’s very nicely furnished with everything you may need (even a washing machine). Within a few minutes walk you can find 2 very food restaurants serving typically Tuscan food and within a short car ride you can reach Montalcino where you have plenty of places to eat. We highly recommend to stay at this place no matter if you are a couple or a family - you will not regret it and we will for sure come back!

Only 6 kms from the historical centre of Florence, Il Milione represents a quality residence for self-catering as well as b&b stays (upon request). Our guests can enjoy moments of absolute relax in the peace of the countryside, without sacrificing the convenience of being close to town and to the most important points of interest in Tuscany. Guests can enjoy open-air swimming-pool, two lakes (not suitable for swimming) , "bocce" court, children amenities, tennis court and a series of trekking routes within the property, wifi in common area and in all rooms and apartments. Direct sale of local products, organic extra virgin olive oil, Chianti wine and honey; a typical panoramic restaurant is also available for romantic dinners. Open all year round.
I'm giving this 5 stars because I believe that people who put their heart and soul into welcoming guests should be rewarded for their efforts. We arrived at the Fattoria in a blazing heatwave with much of Europe desperately looking for a sunny escape in Italy whose borders were still open. Gianpaolo, the owner, was holding the fort and was good enough to move us around from one apartment to the next as we desperately needed to have an outside terrace for evening dining. Aircon works very well in all rooms, but al fresco is so much better and ecologically righteous. The location of the fattoria is stunning, the pool a welcome oasis, and the apartments each very different, not all of them have that magical private outside space. This ose once a farm, please be reminded, and therefore don't expect hotel specs. Be prepared to adapt, improvise, and enjoy.

Stayed at the suites on a solo trip to explore Florence. The location was great with everywhere I wanted to see within an easy walking distance yet at the same time it didn't feel particularly touristy. It also felt safe which, as I was travelling alone, was important to me. The suite was very spacious, with a separate sofa and table, and a large bathroom with a walk in shower. I had toyed with booking the room with a terrace but there was a communal terrace which I never ended up using but which would have been more than adequate. The air conditioning was a welcome respite from a 35C heat wave. I was a little concerned that staff weren't there 24/7 however they were more than helpful both before and during the trip. I'd happily recommend and stay again.

Spent a week here at the beginning of April which was out of season so the pool and restaurant were closed however, Dennis and Dean ensured that we had everything we needed so that we had a comfortable stay (and breakfast). Dennis was very knowledgeable and gave us some very helpful advice on where to visit and eat. He tailored these to suit our needs and likes. The room was spacious, had everything we needed plus a jacuzzi bath tub. It had high ceilings and was tastefully decorated. We even had a library (with working record player) that we could use to socialise in. Dennis and Dean organised a pleasant cheese and wine evening so we were able to meet the other guests and a merry time was had by all. The extensive grounds were beautifully maintained and the views of the Tuscan hills were enchanting. The buildings were varied as the rooms probably are too. The town is surrounded by olive groves and vineyards. Thank you Dennis for organising the wine tasting and the lovely meal recommendations. We will be returning.

Set in Arezzo’s city center nearby Piazza Grande, La Corte del Re offers an hotel treatment in an ancient building that still has some of its original Etruscan and Medieval walls. Offering exposed-brick walls and painted or beamed ceilings, rooms have an antique feel with all the modern comforts. All the rooms uniquely decorated are furnished with kitchenettes, private bathroom, air conditioning, satellite TV channels and some of them with view on Piazza Grande . The reception is a relaxing common area with library, fax and internet corner, in an elegant and refined space. Upon request with supplement,la Corte del Re provides a breakfast or at a nearby café or with room service Arezzo Cathedral is 350 m away Arezzo Train Station is 1 km away.
The location can not be better, on the Piazza Grande, in the very center of Arezzo. The rooms are in an old medieval building. It is not really an hotel but rather a guest house. Meaning the reception is almost mostly not at disposal, even if the team is friendly. The room was clean and big. The concern is that according to the website you may imagine to get a direct view on the Piazza Grande; to my knowledge only one room offers such a perfect and unforgettable view; it is named the Suite Michelangelo, the most costly, but I consider it was really worth to book it. The room is vast, with an esthetic ceiling and two big windows. Do not hesitate to choose it.

Traveling as a family of 5, we were in search of a three-bedroom option (or three hotel rooms) well located enough to make exploring simple for my 96-year-old grandmother. Palazzo Gamba's location is absolutely unbeatable and the view is as five-star as it gets! Who needs a rooftop bar when your view overlooks the Duomo like this? Truly unbeatable location-wise and view-wise. The layout inside was perfect for us - three bedrooms, plus two bathrooms. service was helpful and the elevator was necessary with an elderly traveler! All around great spot and great value for a self-catering option.
