We ended up extending our stay and alltogether stayed there for 10 days. Upon arrival we were given a room that smelled of artificial air fragrance. We could not stay in it so we asked for another room. The new room was much better and we really enjoyed our stay there. The breakfast was included in the price and it varied by day. Some days we had more, some days less to choose from. The king size bed was made up of two single beds, but it was comfortable enough. The location is perfect as you can walk to and back to the center. There is also a bus stop very close by. And the parking is very convenient. Would stay there again if a need arised and would recommend it to others who are travelling by car.

The use of artificial air fragrances in the lobby and overpowering smell in the rooms. Could have been a bit warmer.

Villa La Stella was perfectly located for daily visits to the centre of Florence. There was a regular bus down from Fiesole to the train station, from which it was a 10 minute walk to the Duomo. Santa Maria Novella church was across the square from the bus stop. It was also a good centre for day trips, for instance to Siena and San Gimignano. Fiesole was a short drive up the hill for dinners after a day in the city. The facilities were fine, the staff were friendly, the breakfast was generous and our room was comfortable.

A very peaceful place, everything was clean, the bed was comfy. The single bed room is small, but has everything you might need. They let you wander around the property and the garden and everything there looks stunning. I didn't have the famous Florence view, but I didn't really care. (And if you wander around you'll eventually find the corridor window with that stunning view.) Breakfast was nice, though I had to skip it a few times because it starts at 7:30 and I had timed duomo tickets for 8am, so breakfast could definitely start sooner, but that's a personal preference. The bus stop is 2-3 minutes from the villa and the bus takes you straight to the centre/train station, which is amazing.

The hotel is in a very quiet and green location. The room was very basic but large, and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was great, and it had a lot of options, both to eat and to drink. During the rest of the time you can get a bottle of water or something else to drink and pay for it when you check out, and there is also a coffee machine that works with tokens. I was a bit afraid that if the bus was very irregular I might waste a lot of my limited Florence time, but I never had to wait more than 10-15 minutes, and Moovit could predict it.

The hotel is uphill from the bus stop, so when you have a large suitcase it's not the most comfortable climb, but then, going back down is much easier.

We had a pleasant stay at Villa La Stella between 28.12-01.01.2024. The room was good, generous in space, and had a nice view. The breakfast was more than Ok, it started at 7:30 till 10. We needed one morning to serve it before 7:30 and the staff helped us with this request. The villa, even if it's in Fiesole, is well connected with the city center, by bus no 7, that works on a schedule. We bought bus tickets from the front desk one morning. If you are looking for a quiet place to stay this villa is a good choice.

The windows are hard to close. The wi-fi.

The position of the hotel is great, just 5 minutes from the bus station. You can take the bus 7 to the city center. The staff was kind and helpful. The breakfast was very good.

The floor in the room was dirty and full of dust every day. It's like it hasn't been vacuumed for weeks. The toilet furniture is outdated and broken. Also, the mosquito net is pretty necessary in rooms.

The location is a bit outside Florence centre, but still convenient and quiet. Very nice view. Very kind staff, they offered support in case of late arrival. The breakfast was ok. The price was fair compared to the accomodation and services. The parking is a plus.

The room (single room) was a bit small, albeit the bathroom was very large. The room, the bathroom and the breakfast room are a bit dated, but that was not a problem to me.

This hotel is convenient if you are on a road trip in Italy: there is a carpark (secured) where you can leave the car, and then you can grab the bus to go to the historical center (for free by the way, as they did not sell tickets in the bus the first time, and no one has checked us during the next two days...). Rooms is warm in winter and bathroom is good and clean.

Breakfast room not very welcoming + food quality could be better.

Everything was great. The location is far from the city but it’s worth it because you have free parking which is good benefit for Florence. The guys who works here are really great, especially the guy who works in the kitchen. He is polite, kind and hardworking. He made our stay to be perfect! The room is okay and clean. Really loved and enjoyed the view!

Nothing. Everything was “as advertised” or much better.
