Possibly the best hotel I have ever stayed in!

I have been lucky enough to stay at some pretty amazing hotels around the world, but this hotel may be the top of the list now. The hotel itself is incredible, with an amazing interior, grounds and view. It is the perfect place to be outside the city, and have the feel of a Victorian Era Tuscan Villa. The view from our rooms (we were on the 3rd floor, or Floor 2 in Italy), had a view of the city, the Duomo and the surrounding hills. Just amazing. The rooms were comfortable, with wonderful beds and linens, our bathroom had a heated floor, which was nice for the cooler mornings. The staff were incredibly kind, service was outstanding, and they made us feel like we were the only guests there! The food on site was just amazing. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet each morning and had dinner one evening there. Everything was 5 stars in quality, taste and presentation. We had a great time enjoying the use of the shuttle service both to and from the city center. The drop off and pickup point is the Palazzo Republica so it couldn't be more convenient. I can't emphasize enough how wonderful our stay was! Thanks to Ariela and her staff for truly making our 2nd trip to Florence so memorable. We will be back!

Exquisite experience from beginning to end

We stayed for 3 nights in this exquisite hotel - we were enchanted by this magical hotel. From the moment we stepped in the hotel we were treated with the most exquisite charming and sincere service by the lovely team at Villa Cora. Thank you for such a lovely stay. I would not hesitate to recommend Villa Cora in every sense. The experience was that of staying in a private house combined with relaxed high end luxury. The team went out of their way to help make our experience beautiful - from dining, to spa and to the unique smoking room bar! This is a truly unique hotel and we will definitely be returning. Small touches such as the shuttle driver into Florence, details in the room - Ortiga products / linen and so on….all point to the thought and exquisite taste of the owner and team. We intend to be back soon with family and friends.

Marvellous Experience.

We recently spent a wonderful few days at Villa Cora. The service was impeccable - both professional and warm but with an attention to detail that did not go unnoticed by my husband and I. Our room was beautifully appointed while the food was just extraordinary good - I don’t think it’s possible to find a better breakfast in Florence or indeed Italy!

Magical

My daughter took me to Villa Cora for my birthday. We spent a magical weekend in Florence which was made even more magical by the staff, and luxurious environment of this very special hotel.
Everything was more than 5*. Our room was so comfy, the spa meant we could relax after a day of visiting galleries and the wonderful Boboli gardens, which are so close and the heated swimming pool meant that we had an amazing swim under the stars.
Best of all are the staff who made us feel so welcome and who found nothing too much trouble.
If you have the chance this is the place to stay in Florence.
