Hotel Villa dei Bosconi - Fiesole

8.7

Great place to relax. Location hard to find, asked at info office in Fiesole in the end. Nice walk back to Fiesole to catch the bus. I was unwell at the time of our stay and the staff made sure my husband was able to bring breakfast back to me in our room - a much appreciated gesture. I would recommend this Hotel to anyone and would definitely stay again

Perfect setting - just elevated enough above Firenze to be out of the hustle and bustle, but close enough for easy access via the city bus. We had rented a car, so it was easy to make the short drive to Fiesole, park for the day and take the bus. Fiesole is quite interesting on it's own merit and the hotel's pool area is really inviting. We are already planning on returning for a longer stay.

First time in Fiesole area. The hotel being outside of it I recommend to rent a car for easy access.

The staff were very helpful and polite - but when you book on the net - you get the cheapest room - not in the best position at all - and the breakfast was poor

it was great and we enjoyed it a great deal. there is still much to be done about the breakfast. other than that it was great.

The hotel is well appointed - a beautifully refurbished old dance salon set in a quiet location in the countryside on the outskirts of Fiedole. The staff are friendly and helpful. The bedrooms are comfortable - good shower but storage space a bit limited. The only real grouse was the poor quality of the breakfasts - absolutely minimal, there were no cereals - choice of one kind of thinly sliced cheese and thinly sliced cold ham. We were there in autumn when the shops and markets were awash with apples, figs, pomegranates melons and all the other produce of a bountiful summer yet there was no fruit on the table.

9.5

Excellent accomodtions for visiting Florence which a 10 min bus ride away. Staying in Fiesole allows you to enjoy a peacful town (traffic, noise, etc) and the vies of the Duomo are beautiful. The shower is small but that seems to be the norm in Italy. I highly recommend this accomodation.

Good hotel in lovely site with excellent views.Perhaps too far out of Fiesole and the walk uphill back to the hotel in the dark is unpleasant. If the hotel were to offer a shuttle service to Fiesole and back it might attract more guests. No atmosphere.

This is a very nice hotel providing excellent accommodation and a simple but good breakfast. We were disappointed the first evening that there was no restaurant (or bar snacks) and we had to walk back to Fiesole to eat, as it was exceptionally hot and we were tired after a long drive. It was probably our error in not reading available information. Thereafter we made our plans to allow for this and found very good restaurants nearby. We were thankful that we were not staying in Florence, but in the cooler hills above. The hotel was fairly empty and so it was very quiet and peaceful. This suited us. The first morning my partner accidentally pulled the emergency cord in the shower. I tried to telephone reception immediately to advise of the false alarm but there was no response. Seconds later the young man from reception was at our door. I was very impressed by this speedy action, as had there been a genuine problem, he would have been more help on the scene than at the other end of a phone. Well done.

The hotel is pleasant with well appointed rooms. It was rather empty during our stay which meant there was no atmosphere, no evening bar. The walk into Fiesole (15 - 20 min)would have been pleasant if there had been a pavement or footpath - as it was, it was a bit of a chore, as we had to walk single file, and press ourselves into the side every time a car passed.
