Villa Olmi Resort Florence Guest Reviews
it is not in the center of florence, but it's very easy to find and if you are travel by car then it's just perfect (you don't need to worry about parking, they have the fantastic garden for parking).breakfast is fresh and many choices,dinner in their resturant will be a good choice, room is a little bit tiny but comfortable enough,the best thing is they do not just have a bathtub,but a jecuzy!!!staffs are very friendly and professional.the only shortcoming is that the room do tend to feel a little bit cold...

Wonderful! The staff were superb: friendly, attentive and always willing to lend a hand. The property itself is awesome. It sits within well-manicured and tended grounds. Although close to a fairly busy road, it was generally country quiet. The restaurant was very good: food and service excellent. We had the house pizza margherita our first night as we were too lagged to stumble around anymore. It was excellent. Our room - classic standard - was nicely appointed, with plenty of space and places for our clothes and such, and was kept up very well during our stay. We chose not to rent a car and used the bus (Linea 23A) to get into (Fermata: Park Pino) and back (Fermata: Olmi) from Florence (avg 20 min ride). The bus stops we used were each about 1/4 km from the hotel and easily walkable. We noted only two downsides. First, from the sound of it, all the room baths have whirlpool tubs. I'm sure this is a keen feature for some, but it's a real annoyance when the neighbors pop it on, especially at 23:30 when reveille is at 04:00 the next day in order to catch a morning flight. Second, and this became less of an issue as we grew accustomed to the area and to how things worked, the virtue of seclusion and distance away from things was a bit of hassle. We are the type of traveler that likes to play tourist during the day, then head back to the hotel for a clean-up, nap and drink, and then head back out looking for someplace to have dinner. The round-trip time between downtown Florence and the hotel generally put a damper on that approach. Overall, we (the two of us) highly recommend the Villa Olmi resort. The quiet at night and the Villa Olmi experience (staff, amenities, breakfast buffet, restaurant, and the property) was well worth the daily expense and time into downtown Florence.
