Extremely clean, very modern (great air conditioning!), wonderfully friendly staff - and the location is fantastic. I would stay at this location again!

This was our favorite hotel of our three city vacation. The staff, the room, the meals - everything was perfect. Florence is such a walkable city and the Palazzo Castri 1874 we well situated for our exploration of the historic area. I don't know if we will return to Florence, but if we do, this is the only hotel in which I want to stay.

Amazing and unique hotel. Amazing staff. Yummy breakfast. Loved the living room area. Amazing location. Would go back!

The most amazing hotel we have ever stayed in! Service was exceptional, the views were unparalleled, the breakfast was outstanding, and this place cannot be beat. The live music at sunset and breakfast added to the joy at every turn. The pool was also a fun and beautiful place to spend the day!

We were only there briefly (26 hours) but the time we were there, we appreciated that this is a very nice hotel, with all of the amenities, and outstanding service. Would highly recommend!

The perfect walking tour, complete with just the right amount of information and history, and time to experience Florence.

Such a fun way to see Tuscany! The variety at the vineyards made for a truly memorable afternoon!

A perfect way to experience Capri - from the water, with swimming, but then also heading up to Anacapri and Capri for drinks with a view!

A fun afternoon cooking and eating local seafood!

A fun afternoon seeing the Amalfi coast from the water! The best way to avoid the crowds but still get the scenery!

First class rooms and service

Small but very well appointed rooms making full use of the space, with ample closet space, a couch, small fridge and balcony

Well kept, wonderful views, pool and nice clean rooms. Room was not as thoughtfully laid out as the Hotel Svizzero and our window looked out right on the well trodden path where lots of guests were walking, so privacy was an issue. Breakfast buffet options not as varied as those of Hotel Svizzero. Also, pool was nice but mostly inside so not ideal for lounging around it. Finally, meal options not as good as restaurants in town. All in all, a very good hotel but these issues prevent me from giving it 5 stars.

Nocciola producer was a fantastic experience. Lovely family and great products. Highly recommended. Would have liked at least a quick tour of the trees / orchard but otherwise great. The cheese producer was very quaint, polite and excellent selection of cheeses. Nice family and informative lecture. Would have appreciated a closer view of the sheep (which were very far) or the goats (which were in a field that was not visible) but this is a nit. Ran into the producers in the Alba Farmers Market on Saturday also.

The views from the Ape tour were amazing as we toured the Barolo countryside. Driver also was informative. The description referenced a stop for "local delicacies" but that was a little misleading: while we did stop at the entrance to a vineyard, I expected we would go inside and sample the wine and some snacks. Instead, we were sat down at a picnic table and given hazelnuts, some hard crackers, and some wine. The snack stop could be improved and should, in my opinion, include sampling at an actual vineyard. By the way, not sure whether this is the place for this comment, but we discovered that the recommended walking tour of the vineyards for the following day was an almost exact duplicate of what we saw on the Ape, so we of course varied from the recommendation. Would suggest including the Castle of Count Covour and the nocciola sculptor (Pine?). Thanks.

Good tips. Would recommend more information about the autostrada and payment techniques.
