We (myself, husband and his sister) stayed here for two nights back in June. We booked a triple room and were given the "Porticelli" room.The room and bathroom were both a decent size and well equipped. The hotel doesn't have a restaurant, but you can order light meals, although at 9.35pm we were told it was too late to order... More

Stayed 5 nights here. Is a converted villa and set in beautiful gardens. We had just a double room but it was huge with a large bed, chaise lounge, arm chair and desk. The walls were full of interesting pictures and maps. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom a good size. As we have seen in other Italian... More

We spent three nights here at the end of a holiday in Tuscany. We booked through Hotels.com and then became very nervous about it as the reviews on Trip Advisor were not good. I travelled with my husband and 8 year old daughter, our room which was supposed to be a family room with an extra bed turned out to... More

The situation, the building, the rooms and and the grounds are all gorgeous. The breakfast was good and the pool cooling. Although it is on a hill outside the main tourist area the hop-on hop-off bus made travel easy - but watch out for times. Walking downhill to the tourist area is OK but I would try the uphill return... More

The Park Palace Hotel has most of what we really needed in the jet-lag phase of a busy visit in hot July. A spacious clean room with a view out the back, little traffic noise, roll-down sun shutters, a cool pool in a shady garden, and a perfect verandah for meals. The reception staff are friendly and helpful. Lots of... More

We were so enchanted with the Park Palace when we arrived that we forfitted a couple of days sightseeing in downtown Florence to enjoy the sunloungers, the pool and the natural beauty of this green and tranquil Tuscan setting!

Nice small hotel near Boboli Gardens. Away for the crowds and with a nice pool with lots of shades for an afternoon nap! We got a suite with 2 bedrooms in the separate "Villetta" which also featured a connecting room to sleep an additional 2 people. Setup was great for our family. Staff was helpful and polite. Breakfast was fair... More

Very nice hillside villa with nice views. Street it is on is a little busy with cars and mopeds. We had the room for 4 above the entrance. Super nice for 4! Pretty far to walk to downtown but the 12/13 bus is about 1E and is timely. Just stay away from the restaurant for dinner. The only dinner worse... More

The location is great though it is 20 minutes walking tom the center. The hotel looks like a real palazzo, looks more expensive than it's in reality. The room was spacious but aircon not working properly on the third floor? However definetely value for money

The location is nice though it's 20 minutes walking tom the center - real 20 minutes, full speed. The hotel looks like a real palazzo, looks more expensive than it's in reality. The room was spacious, but the view was on construction yard. A little bit noisy because of the road nearby.
