Florence and Villa La Vedetta was the second stop during our Italian tour this November. Florence itself is a relatively small city so after arriving at the train station we were only a short 15 minute taxi ride up to the hotel. Villa La Vedetta is not in the heart of the city's center but it's beauty is the the... more

This is true luxury - a boutique hotel with outstanding service , and exquisite food in the restaurant, Onice. Fantastic breakfast - all cooked to order and array of fresh fruit and produce. We held our wedding reception here and it was truly memorable. more

This is a truly magical hotel. It must have the best view bar none in Europe overlooking the city. The staff were all delightful and nothing was too much trouble for them. Our room was spotless and comfortable. We did not stay for dinner but judging by the breakfast the food was excellent too. Can't wait to return! more

I organized a surprise to my wife for the day corresponding to our 10th wedding anniversary. Amongst different 5 stars hotel throughout Europe, I chose Villa La Vedetta ... and our stay was extraordinary.

La Vedetta is in the top range. The loaction is fantastic a stone away from the Michelangelio plaza. The romantic suite was very comfortable and room features are of what you can expect for the range. What makes it a special place is staff friendlyness, genuine smiles and interest in customers satisfaction. more

The property is located on the hill across the river from the main tourist sites. Overall, the hotel service was superb. They offer free shuttle rides in the daytime hours between the city and the property. Staff... more

On a luxurious two week tour of Italy, Villa La Vedetta is the third hotel we have stayed at. Upon being driven up to the villa we were pleasantly surprised by the loveliness of the villa and the view of Florence. However everything afterward was disappointing. The room (although we booked in the spring) was not overlooking Florence but instead... more

We had our wedding reception at this hotel and it was fantastic. The hotel is a gem set in a pretty garden in a lovely quiet location away from all the hustle and bustle with breathtaking views of the city but just a 10-15 minute walk to the centre and main attractions. The staff couldn't have been more helpful, the... more

Villa la Vedetta has one of the most beautiful hotel views I have ever seen. To sit on the terrace looking out over the roof tops of Florence was magical both by day and night. We had a lovely stay in this small but well appointed hotel. The pool area had plenty of chairs and a shady bar area and... more
