Residence Michelangiolo is a quiet vila just out of town. A 20 minute walk into Florence, it is a good choice if you are travelling by car, as there is free secure parking on site. Angela and Cherubino are very helpful and gave us good restaurant recommendations along with directions for our onward journey. Lovely large room with high ceilings.... more

Yes, it's all true! Location-the place is close enough to the city to walk to, but far enough to be quiet(sort of...it's Italy, remember?). The rooms are huge and clean. The staff, CH and A, were the best most friendly, courteous hosts we have ever met; Among many things, CH recommended; -a one day drive itinerary thru Siena and San... more

We stayed here at the beginning of July and were absolutely thrilled with the beautiful rooms, spacious bathroom and kitchenette. The residence is ideally situated, far enough away from the centre of Florence to feel peaceful, close enough to see everything you need to. The transport links from the residence are brilliant, with the local bus stop being only 3... more

We stayed at the Residence Michelangiolo for 4 days at the end of July, 2008. Everything about our stay was so relaxing and comfortable, even before we got there. We emailed the hotel ahead of time and Cherubino made reservations for us at Uffizi Gallery and the Accademia (We definitely recommend making the reservations and paying the little extra, otherwise... more

Follow their directions from... more

We stayed 3 nights in the Suite in Residence Michelangiolo on our honeymoon. We were 100% satisfied and would go back anytime. The Residence is 10 min walk from the center and is therefore perfectly located to visit the city without a car and at the same time it provides for quietness after a day of sightseeing with a nice... more

Very pleased with our choice of the picturesque Residence Michelangiolo for our stay in Florence. After a busy days site seeing, in apparently unseasonal heat (38-40 celcius) we found the Residence a welcome respite from the high temperature, the crowds and the hustle and bustle of the city. Loved our room, it was spacious, elegantly furnished, cool and spotlessly clean... more

This is the best way to see Florence, in my opinion. Lodged on the tree-lined Viale Michelangielo, it is a welcome rest from the hub-bub and crowds of the city, but it's only a 20-minute walk to the Ponte Vecchio, or 20 minutes in the other direction to the church of San Miniato, with a stellar view of the entire... more

We loved this hotel and it's location. We stayed here during the summer making this location a great escape from the crowds. We enjoyed the 15 minute walk along the river into town. If you don't feel like walking, there is a bus stop 5 minutes away. The rooms were very spacious and the staff was very nice. I asked... more
