“Sleep with angels”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

This hotel is just stunning. Once you enter in the hotel you feel a mix between modern style with the light under the pub's table and romantism, with the statues and paints "à la Michelangelo" on the selling. The family room was in fact a duplex with the beds both on the main floor and on the second floor. The... More

Dear Mr. Frédéric, thank you for your review. The descriptions of the Spa, the room, and the beautiful mix between neo-classical decor and modern art in the main Villa are very detailed. We really hope to see you again soon. Best Regards, Claudio Delli - Managing Director More

“Delicious al fresco lunch with stunning views of Florence”

Reviewed 3 May 2013

We didn't stay at the hotel but did come for lunch that was very special. The hillside location of the villa high above the hubbub of the city was really special and the whole lunch delicious and served with great courtesy and style. Very expensive, but then spending pounds in Euroland is never comfortable, doubly so in Italy, trebly so... More

“Excellent hotel”

Reviewed 28 April 2013

We had a great stay at this hotel. The staff were absolutely perfect. Helpful, but not overbearing or stuffy. The building itself and its grounds are beautiful and our room had an amazing view over Florence. The free shuttle into town was really useful and the decent free wifi was very useful. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Dear Client, Thank you very much for this nice review about the Hotel, its staff and facilities. We are so happy that you had a great stay at our property and that everything went according to your expectations.

Absolutely fantastic! Excellent for wedding parties: we saw a marvellous Japanese couple taking pictures there:)!

I don't think Villa Cora is very well known in Florence as a restaurant, but I would bet that will change soon. This spectacular villa turned luxury hotel has a beautiful stand alone restaurant. It's not listed here in Trip Advisor as a restaurant - so I am reviewing under the hotel section. The beautiful dining room is in a... More
