Hotel Alle Ville sull'Arno - Florence

Everything was excellent! The room, the staff, the restaurant, the location, the price. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay there again. Nice walk to Florence city sights, restaurants. Easy access to A1 if driving.

Mi marido, mis 2 hijas y yo estuvimos allí por vacaciones. Es un tranquilo hotel bien comunicado con el centro de Florencia con una parada de bus muy cerquita. La gente muy amable y servicial. La habitación cuádruple que nos dieron era enorme y tenía un balconcito que daba al río Arno. Lo recomiendo sin dudarlo. Estupendo para ir con niños.

Very nice hotel despite its age...Lovely view from the room. Good quality of services provided.

9.0

Beautiful location and the desk staff were more than welcoming and helpful. Room was beyond our expectations for size and quality, well worth the 20 minute bus ride out of the main city centre. The morning breakfast was above average and the staff friendly and courteous. Our only concern was over security as we had a ground floor room and the windows and sliding glass door to the patio did not lock. Overhead security doors were provided but the cleaning staff repeatedly raised them and left them open. One time we returned to our room in the evening and our entrance door was left wide open by the cleaning staff; not acceptable.

Very nice hotel with fantastic breakfast and very helpful staff, highly recommendable

we stayed there for a few days around new years eve ; all things was OK !! we can recommend this hotel to everybody!- (which is not to lazy for a 45 min. walk to the towncenter)

The hotel was everything we expected it to be and more. Would have liked to have tea and coffee making facilities in the room, but it was provided once we asked for it. All the staff went out of their way to be helpful. One drawback: the hotel did not accept Euro travellers cheques as payment. This ended up costing us 50 Euros as had to cash them back once we got home.

9.0

Minor problem w/mosquitos. Difficulty using the European (Italian?) keyboard on the computer. We had the 'triple executive' room, and it was beautiful. Meals in the restaurant were wonderful. The waiters and waitresses were great. Breakfast was good--especially the croissants! I would definitely stay here again.

9.5

We had a great time. The hotel's restaurant is worth a visit. The chef is very friendly and the food is very good. The only problem we had was with the air conditioning or lack of it. We complain at the front desk and we were told there was a problem and wasn't going to be fixed for another week. It seems to be a common problem in Italy.

9.0

Lovely, large, and nicely furnished room with beautiful full Arno view. Mosquitoes precluded our ability to leave windows open however, screens would be any easy solution. Hotel guests in room next door were extremely loud on their outdoor patio every night of the 4 nights we stayed. (rooms not soundproofed so it is just a "hit or miss" thing with guests though possibly the hotel management could ask guests to move from patios to inside their rooms by midnight)

8.9

Located on the river to the rear but a main road to the front, which if you are on the front of the Hotel could be quite noisy in the morning and night (Italians love to use their car horns). Staff are excellent and speak fluent English. Breakfast is the best we had in Italy with a great choice of cereals, eggs/bacon, assorted breads, jams etc, assorted sweet cakes, cheese and ham plus yoghurt and fruit. Evening meals are great with a choice for Vegetarians (something overlooked at the other hotels we stayed in). There is ample parking and the street to the front of the hotel is safe to park on as well. The rooms are excellent and they include so many of those 'little freebies' you'll need an extra case for them! All in all an excellent hotel located about 20 mins from the centre of Florence, but if you need the bus it's only a 5 minute walk away.

4.5

Outside of the center of town and on the Arno river so quiet if your room is on the river side. Rooms were very dated. AC didn't work and room was extremely hot. They brought in a fan and later an air conditioner but told us not to use it for a while - we did anyway and it helped. Staff was not particularly friendly - maybe they had been getting complaints from others... Breakfast was fine - typical fare for Italy. The two mile walk to town was okay if you are up for it. Would not return to this hotel, however. It was below my standards for quality, comfort, convenience and friendliness. The pool was a good add for families, however.

9.9

the one of best,its really nice hotel,nice rooms,excelent service,when agains to firenze,back to this hotel,it was everthing best,thank you for all!

5.1

Small swimming pool. Few chairs. Cold water. Impossible rules at the pool. Only one toilet in the hotel (not in the lobby, but at the end of the garden...Breakfast not corrisponding for a 4 star hotel. Staff not smily.Never again!

9.7

Great view of river Arno, great hotel, and great people. Only issue is that it is little bit away (not very far) from the historic district.

7.8

very handy location on the Lungarno, just in front of the river close to the Ponte Verrazzano. Quiet

9.1

The Arno river is not as impressive as one would like to think. It is dirty and not pleasing to look at. However the property Ville Arno was nice and I would definitely return there again. This hotel should not be confused with Hotel Arno which is on the same street but is a shabby, dirty looking building that is not at all very inviting.

9.1

Great location. My room was spacious, and the air conditioning was quiet and worked perfectly. The restaurant dining was wonderful and I did not have to fight the crowds in Florence. I highly recommend this hotel.

10

This hotel was wonderful. All the staff was very welcoming and helpful. We had a wonderful view of the river which was nice to sit outside and people watch. All the meals were excellent. We ate at the restaurant 4 out of the 5 nights we stayed. Breakfast was also very good. When it came time to leave we didn't want to leave and even thought about booking for next year already. We are planning on staying here again.

9.1

just the kind of hotel i was expecting...a little away from the busy city....and not really being that far off. the staff were super and very helpfull. the breakfast was nice.just perfect! recommend to all and will definately stay with them again.

10

We had Dinner at the Ristorante Targa an easy walk from the Hotel 2nd year in a row for both the Hotel and the Ristorante. They are highly recommended by both couples. We especially like the location of the Hotel since it is isolated from the center of the city in a peaceful park like location on the Arno river.

9.6

This was a beautiful small hotel overlookig the Arno River, with many balcony rooms. We ate at the restorante there several times and had excellent meals. Since this hotel is about 3 or 4 miles from the interesting parts of Florence, you can taxi in, or, as we did for much less money, take a bus. The #14 bus has a stop about 2 blocks from hotel. You can buy bus tickets at the little cafe beside the stop for 1.20 euros each way. The bus stops at the Duomo. The return bus can be picked up on the side of the Duomo (also #14) and returns a block closer to the hotel. Jane from Maryland USA

Excellent stay - Staff was very helpful and could speak French, English and Spanish!

7.5

nice hotel but not brand new. His location along the Arno makes your staying magic ! Nice and calm view, you can watch people rowing on the river in the morning, while taking your breakfast on the balcony ! the only negative points would be the distance from the center (25 minutes by bus, 1 bus every 30 minutes) and the rooms are a little bit old, but verrrry spacious !

7.9

I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel. It was good value for money, situated right on the banks of the Arno and just a gentle 25 min walk straight to the Ponte Vecchio at the heart of Florence. Our room was basic, but spacious and clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful and having a swimming pool was a joy in the heat of the day!

9.5

What a great hotel !! We really enjoyed our stay there. We had a very spacious family suite with a window facing the River Arno. The weather was hot so air conditioning in our room was very welcome as was the pool outside (which was used happily every afternoon & a great relief after sight-seeing during the day). Our room was very clean & the bathroom huge with a great shower & bath. Breakfast was fabulous with a huge selection to choose from. Free parking was available on site at the hotel. The hotel is serviced by an excellent public transport bus system into the city centre which we used daily; tickets were available at the hotels reception. We really enjoyed staying here & would have no hesitation to stay at this hotel again.

6.7

un assez bon hotel, un peu déçu malgré tout par le bruit, nous avions une chambre qui donnait sur la rivière Arno, assez spacieuse, mais de l'autre cotê de la rivière une boîte de nuit à ciel ouvert animait nos nuits, dommage! un peu loin du centre, 25 mn à pieds, pratique en bus.

5.6

It is not more than a 3 stars hotel. Poor Breakfast, ok the location and the parking availability.

9.8

The hotel is excellent and the installation of a wifi new system was a nice surprise. The rooms are very sapcious and neat. We could park our car almost at the room door. One little inconvenience is the need to go outside to reach the hotel restaurant which is of a very good quality and offers rather good prices relative to Florence.

8.5

the hotel was really nice and easy to reach. it takes just 5 minutes with the bus number 14 to go to the center of Florence. nice surroundings. the breakfast could have been better. the room service is 2 euros each person.

8.5

Desk and service staff friendly and efficient. Not so restaurant: poorlo attended and served. Furniture needs a little more care and decoration more taste to make it a great little hotel. Keep it up.

8.1

Bus service is available every 10-15 minutes. 10 minutes journey from/to the central. Tickets are available at the repection.

10

The hotel was beyond our expectation. We had an excellent room with huge balcony and river view. The room was worth much more than what i paid. It was so easy to get to the city. Just take one bus which is a block away from hotel and you will be in city within few minutes. The only thing that i regret is why we didn't stay longer. I want to go back to Italy so i can stay longer at this hotel.

6.5

The Hotel building is looked very nice. The room is very big but very simple, old fashion furnitures, not very well maintained. Although the price fit the hotel quality, the use of 4 stars is improper. The Hotel has a lot of potential, with some investmant, to become a wonderful place.

8.2

la guiete della bella suite era disturbata dalla rumorosità del condizionatore d'aria!

7.2

The room was spacious and clean however the service provided was below average.

8.7

good hotel, breakfast could be better, swimming pool great, city center indeed at 10-15 min walk.

9.7

calme,bonnes prestations 4 étoiles, remarque pour le petit déjeuner : la salle de restaurant est trop chaude et il n'est pas possible d'utiliser les salons de jardin au bord de la piscine. le restaurant est un peu triste et très peu fréquenté Le point fort c'est la chambre d'hotel vaste et très bien climatisée avec très belle salle de bain en marbre

9.8

Great place...I'd stay again. Bus Tip: the drop off spot is different than the pick up spot. Buses at night are every 60 mins so check the schedules.. Pool is not the best but refreshing.

9.8

Loved this place. We had a beautiful view of the Arno. the room was exceptional. Pool was fantastic. The hotel was farther away from the sites than was represented. It is a good half hr walk to the sites which was fine for us but may not be for everyone. the hotel is on the bus line so it was fine. Take me back!

9.3

A well kept hotel. Off the main track, but easily reached by taxi for around 10 euros. You can walk into the main part of town in 30 minutes. Rooms were spacious, english was good. We will return.

9.8

The only needed improvement at the hotel is the pool area which is outdated, a little deep for children (if families are also what they wish to cater too) and the area need to improve upon the landscape to take better advantage of the small space and view of the river.

7.7

very good

10

This was an excellent stay. We really enjoyed the fact that we were away from the center of the city, But close enough to walk to all the sights of Florence. The room we had the window opened up to a spectatular view of the Arno just feet away from the Hotel.

6.4

This Hotel should be a new (or old) surroundings, it looks a bit too old and not in a good contition......, sorry about this words

9.1

An excellent hotel and we would definitely stay there again.We found it a little hard to find coming from the autoroute but this is not the fault of the hotel.

8.2

Great hotel wiht parking and pool. Excellent for couples with children. Very good vlue for money.

9.2

My family had a very enjoyable time at the hotel. The staff was very accomodating and helpful. We were there in very hot weather so the pool in which was very clean was a savings grace. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. I would stay there again!!
