Pensione Bencista, Fiesole

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the rooms on the upper floors offered a nice view, they were quite small and lacked a real atmosphere. On the bright side, they were well-equipped with all needed facilities. The service was outstanding, and the staff were gracious, accommodating, and truly helpful with all our needs. The location, though picturesque and outside the city of Florence, won't make me forget about the hotel itself. The dining experience was superb, especially when enjoying the succulent steaks outside overlooking the beautiful city of Florence. The facilities were excellent, and I enjoyed the lovely grounds with splendid views of Florence.

I absolutely loved my stay at this charming villa. The rooms were lovely, but I must say, they could use a bit of upgrading. The service was top-notch, especially thanks to the lovely Beatrice Simoni and her family who run this oasis in the olive groves. The location was picturesque, overlooking Florence from the hill of Fiesole, but it felt a bit cold and unfriendly. The dining experience was simply superb, with delicious dishes served on the terrace with stunning views. Overall, a delightful stay with a few minor areas for improvement.

Staying at the hotel felt like living in a castle with breathtaking views over Florence and the Duomo from the old-world charm spacious room. The blend of Old World charm and modern amenities created a unique experience. However, the room was quite small and lacked some space for comfort.

My stay at the hotel offered spectacular views onto Florence, with basic yet spacious rooms that had comfortable beds. The cooling system could use improvement, but overall a good size. The service was exceptionally friendly and helpful, providing great suggestions for sightseeing. The location was exceptional, overlooking Firenze and the rural Tuscan countryside, offering a peaceful retreat just a quick taxi ride from the city center.

The hotel is in a scenic location with beautiful views overlooking Florence and the Tuscan countryside. The rooms offer comfort and a lovely view, although a better cooling system would enhance the experience. The service is consistently friendly and welcoming, adding to the pleasant stay. Dining options are varied and delightful, making it a highlight of the visit. The serene location outside the bustling city contributes to a peaceful and idyllic atmosphere.
