10/10 Excellent
"My family and I stayed at Villa Neroli for three nights in October while celebrating our wedding in Tuscany and we really loved our stay! The hotel itself is beautiful with comfortable, clean rooms and lovely grounds. Breakfast was great, with plenty of options and the location worked really well for us with some nice restaurants nearby. What stood out most was the staff. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, especially the front desk team. We had quite a few requests during our stay, and they were always happy to help. We also had several family members and friends staying at the hotel for our wedding and the staff did a great job accommodating everyone and helping coordinate our wedding shuttle. One of our favorite moments was simply sitting outside by the pool one evening enjoying a glass of wine together. It was such a peaceful spot and a nice break from all the wedding excitement. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and really appreciated how welcoming everyone was. We'd happily stay at Villa Neroli again next time we're in Florence. Highly recommend!"
