It was fairly clean place, staff were highly efficient, and I loved my stylish room. Terrific service and an excellent pool onsite. I used shuttle bus provided by the hotel too. The location was PERFECT, at a moderate distance from a historical park.

    This hotel is perfectly located just outside of Florence's city centre, in the hills overlooking the city. The rooms are beautiful with stunning painted ceilings and lovely large bathrooms. The service is exceptional, with the receptionist personally meeting guests upon arrival. The staff go above and beyond, offering welcome drinks and a shuttle bus service to town. The rooftop terrace offers breathtaking views. The pool is divine and the spa is a nice addition.

    The hotel could improve on the small things, such as ensuring tea by the pool is delivered with milk or lemon.

    The interior design and decoration of common facilities, hallways, and rooms is marvelous. The outdoor restaurant provides a nice view overlooking the swimming pool. The rooms have interesting views overlooking the garden. The staff were helpful in providing information and suggestions.

    Nothing not to like.

    The hotel is situated on a hill above the Boboli Gardens, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding area. The staff is friendly and attentive, making guests feel relaxed and comfortable. The rooms are beautifully decorated and incredibly clean, with balconies overlooking the city. The restaurant serves delicious food, although slightly pricier. The pool is a great place to relax and unwind. the location, service, and room amenities make for a luxurious stay.

    The spa services were a disappointment, lacking proper welcome and attention to detail.

    We had an amazing stay at a stunning hotel that provided a true oasis of calm and relaxation. The location, close to the Boboli gardens, allowed us to escape the crowds of tourists while still being within easy reach of the main center of Florence. The pool was a highlight, with plenty of sun loungers and complimentary refreshments. Our room was immaculate and tastefully decorated, offering a serene retreat. Breakfast on the balcony was a treat, with a delicious selection of food. I highly recommend this hotel for a luxurious and tranquil experience.

    I can't think of anything that I didn't like, except maybe the slow pool service and the limited storage in the room. However, these were minor inconveniences compared to the overall fantastic experience at Villa Cora.

    The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive during my Christmas stay. They took care of every detail to make my stay comfortable. The food at the hotel was excellent, and I enjoyed every meal. The hotel also had a very comfortable bed, ensuring a good night's sleep.

    The lighting in my room could have been improved. The bedside lights were fine for reading, but it would have been better to have a ceiling light to brighten up the room.

    This hotel provided a luxurious experience that exceeded our expectations. The exclusive amenities, including the outdoor swimming pool and spa treatments, fulfilled our needs. The massage and facial were both exceptional, leaving us feeling rejuvenated. The sun loungers and garden area provided the perfect spot for relaxation, while the restaurant served delicious meals with a fantastic view.

    The only minor issue was the location. Although the hotel is in a peaceful area, it was a bit of a walk to reach the city center.

    We were amazed by the stunning palace that Villa Cora is. The exquisite design and antique furnishings really made us feel like we were in a luxurious and elegant setting. The location, just outside the center of Florence, provided the perfect balance of tranquility and convenience. We loved being able to walk to the main sites and museums, and the hotel even offered a complimentary shuttle bus. The staff at Villa Cora were incredibly helpful and friendly, going above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The attention to detail in everything from the welcome basket of fruit to the bottles of water when we left really made us feel special. The breakfast at the hotel was brilliant, with a wide variety of delicious options to choose from. The rooftop bar provided a fantastic view of Florence and was a great spot to relax and enjoy a drink. The outdoor heated pool was a fantastic amenity, and the pool area was well-maintained. our experience at Villa Cora was absolutely stunning and we highly recommend it.
