In our recent trip to Florence, we have spent some wonderful days at the Park Palace Hotel. When we first saw we were amazed to see this beautiful old Tuscan villa. Surrounded by luxurious vegetation. The personnel was very friendly and helpful with directions and tips to visit Florence. The rooms were large and wonderfully decorated in old Tuscan style.... more

I booked 2 rooms in this hotel for our very recent rip, relying on the aspect of the pool and outskirts to give us both the feel of staying at a Tuscan country villa while being able to tour and eat in Florence. The last time I was in Florence in late May/early June, it was scorchingly hot and humid... more

The Park Palace has a lot going for it, lovely friendly staff, a beautiful building, spacious light airy rooms, delightful terrace to sit and eat breakfast. Bus stop outside to get you into Florence about 15 minutes away. Quiet area, no trouble or problems. Sadly all is not wonderful, there is a large tree in the gardens which not only... more

This is a grand old villa located just south of Florence. If the owners spent some money to renovate, it would be a beautiful and quiet property. Unfortunately, it has obviously been severely neglected. The pros: lobby and breakfast areas are quite nice, location is quiet, central Florence only about 25 minute walk or 10 minute cab, free parking. The... more

When we first arrived, the place looked impressive. It seemed we were in an old Tuscan villa. It had a beautiful entrance and living room with terrace on the main level of the hotel. When we got to our room, however, we were extremely disappointed. The furniture was cheap and old, like from the 60's. The carpet was dirty and... more

Very quiet hotel outside the city center. If you don't have a car or are not willing to take a bus it may prove a problem since there is no restaurant in the hotel. Our main problem was the fact that it was dirty: dead bloody mosquitos on the walls (whose original color was long gone), very old bathroom (1970's... more

The hotel was perfect for the price with excellent quality of service. This hotel never purports to be a "palace" and should not be judged as one. The reviewer from England must have taken the hotel name literally without reading up on any of the information prior to arrival. It is an old villa. And very well kept. All of... more

Hotel Park Palace Disappointed........ We arrived and entered up the drive to a beautiful "palace", our room had no electricity, which was later switched on, only for it to fail early next morning. We were moved to a different room that morning. Hassle you could do without, and should have been checked prior to our visit. The rooms were large... more

My friend and I stayed in the Park Palace this summer and we thought it was great. We had a corner room on an upper floor so the view was on 2 sides of the room. It was great to look out and see other villas on the hills. The view was really cool. The staff was very helpful. The... more
