This was our second visit at this property and we were so happy to return. We had our wedding here in 2022. The property itself is beautiful and clean and in a great location. The shuttle service is very convenient to get you to the city centre of Florence. Staff were extremely helpful, the food at the restaurant is amazing. I would certainly recommend this hotel.

A true gem. The photos online and instagram don’t do it justice.we stayed at Ill Saviatino for three nights and wish we could have stayed longer. It’s a short ride(complimentary) from the beautiful hills just outside of the center of Florence. The views,property,interiors and staff are all wonderful. The decor is spectacular!! Each room is filled witt thoughtful,unique decor selections. It’s classy without being pretentious.the staff is warm and kind. The breakfasts are served on a covered terrace with pink striped awnings and gravel flootrs. The property is swimming in flora and plantings. There’s a spa and the formal gardens are lovely. Understated elegance with a touch of rustic .A VERY special property.

If I could give this hotel a 10 !!! out of 5 for beauty, I would. The property is stunning, the room was lovely, the views were incredible everywhere you looked, the pool was serene, the restaurant terrace was gorgeous …everything. With such a magical setting and so much beauty everywhere you looked, it was surprising to feel a bit off. This was not just us, several of the guests were upset about the quality of service. There is no anticipation of needs by the staff, no feeling that they are there to make sure your stay is the very best it can be. The level of service did not match the beauty or price. It felt very “self serve” and we had to ask for everything. That being said, the morning restaurant manager and staff were very attentive and kind. Again, it was a confusing stay…..stunningly beautiful, relaxing and quiet, but I am just not sure we would stay there again.

It is a very quaint hotel nestled in a beautiful winding road. The landscape is stunning. The service is first class. All the staff is very accommodating and incredible hospitality. The rooms are delightful. The food is superb. The pool was heated and very cozy. They have a nice shuttle every hour going to downtown Florence only 15 min. You get the Tuscany vibe and are very close to downtown. We will be back!!

This hotel is in the perfect location to stay in luxury and then explore Florence and the surrounding areas. The hotel is beautiful with amazing spa, pool, gardens and the views overlooking Florence in the distance are just beautiful. Florence can be very busy but we really enjoyed the easy shuttle service (20mins) that will drop you off and pick you up from the Centre of Florence making out stay so peaceful and serene to relax in the hotel. There are also local villages close by which are also worth exploring by car or taxi. The food and wine etc at the hotel is all top notch with the staff at the bar and restaurant are amazing! Thanks to the place and the hotel people I would thoroughly recommend this as the perfect hotel to stay and enjoy in Florence. We will be back !

Challenging to find as Apple Maps will get you close but unnervingly, not on point. Staff however came to find us and directed us to the hotel. Once there, the location was idyllic. It was peaceful with the best views of Florence. Grounds are heavenly and the pool is a relaxing oasis. Food is delicious if a little bit pricey but not outrageous for a hotel of this caliber. The Duomo view room is a must. We’ll be back.

The property itself is stunning. This is a great place to stay on the edge of Florence. Incredibly relaxing, beautiful views. The downsides are that the on-site restaurant is abysmal, the concierge is abrasive and unhelpful, and the back of house is a downright disaster. I purchased approximately 14 hotel rooms that were lovely. Nearly two weeks after my stay and after having paid about 20k dollars for rooms they have been unable to produce a folio of my charges and have been unable to explain or reduce an $8k charge that was inadvertently put on one of my guests room. While I would highly recommend the hotel, I would suggest only going with a friend and making sure you pay in advance. This hotel lacks any systems to track guests.

Overall, this is a great luxury hotel. Building and grounds are beautiful, staff very helpful, spa is superb. First night, we were given a room with low windows and a bathroom entry too low for my tall height, but they cheerfully moved us to a room for the rest of our stay without those issues. Restaurant was very good, drinks at the bar excellent. Hourly shuttle from Florence ends at 8PM, cab fare is about 20 euro to the center otherwise. There are the quirks one must expect at a renovated older property, but the stately and tranquil environment is worth it in our opinion.

Gorgeous hotel just outside Florence

We loved our trip to Il Salviatino. It’s a gorgeous hotel in beautiful grounds. We were there when it was near 40 degrees c in Florence so it was lovely to stay outside the city up in the hill where it was cooler. We spent most our days by the pool chilling.

We got upgraded to a room with a view which was so lovely- the view is incredible.

We were welcomed from our taxi and offered a glass of prosecco upon arrival and given time to enjoy it before checking in. By the time we went back to the desk our bags were already in our room (even though we hadn’t told him who we were?!) Impressive! The staff in general were very attentive and never made it feel like anything was any trouble.

The hotel is small so it never felt like there were too many people there. Although there was a small wedding that took place while we were there...the music was turned off by midnight.

We used the free shuttle bus to go into Florence to eat every evening. Having read some of the reviews about the food/price of the food we decided to just eat elsewhere. Although the last shuttle leaves Florence at 8, we managed to always get dinner and make it back in time. If the shuttle could run till 9 it would be even better!! (A taxi costs €21 back to the hotel from town).

Overall a brilliant trip! Thank you Il Salviatino

El Salviatino is a beautiful property on the outskirts of Florence. The facilities are quite lovely, including abundant public spaces indoors and out and a well-kept pool. We booked standard rooms and both rooms were spacious, nicely decorated, and well air conditioned. While the dining staff was excellent and the included breakfast buffet very pleasing, the shuttle ran less than originally quoted and this was very problematic. Transportation in and out of Florence was both expensive and hard to obtain. From the number 11 public bus stop nearby, it is only a 0.3 mile walk up a slight incline to the property boundary and we intended to use this option when the shuttle was not operating. However once on the property, there was an even longer walk up to the elevated hotel along the winding driveway. One night around 1 AM we had a knock at the door and we were offered the bucket of ice we had ordered the evening before. Overall, the inconvenience and expense of commuting to and from this hotel would prevent me from recommending it unless it was for a weekend of rest and relaxation or to a person who had access to a car. If the shuttle bus to downtown was reliable and ran until midnight I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Great location but....

The location of this hotel and the stunning views over Florence make this hotel a fabulous place to stay. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. If you are driving, you have to go through Florence which is a bit of an adventure if you are not used to driving in Italy. A Sat Nav is essential! On the negative side, the dinner and room service was very overpriced and uninteresting with a very limited selection and, (hard to believe), I never once had a decent cup of coffee! I love strong Italian coffee but I don't like it burnt or, as was the second option, out of a jar! The rooms are over the top grand but with no table, the most ridiculously complicated lighting system that simply didn't work and the TV set in a huge mirror (!) so you could only watch it if you sat in/on the bed. Stay there, but eat out.

Elegant relaxation away from the crowds

With the view of the Duomo from the breakfast table and the sun shining on the immaculate gardens you would be hard pressed to find a more relaxing place away from the crowds in the city. Staff were welcoming and nothing was a problem. The shuttle bus to the centre allows one to leave the car and be driven to the Duomo and free to explore the delights of Florence. The restaurant in the evening overlooking the city is most pleasant. The room was as one expects from a Five Star hotel. Service was attentive without being obtrusive. In all, what one expects from a first class establishment.

Nice hote but be aware of dinner

Unfortunately our overall 4 night experience was undermined on the first night. Upon arrival we enjoyed lunch on the spacious Terrace that overlooks Florence with the Domo in view. Slightly high priced but with service and view in mind it was acceptable. However that evening we dined on the same terrace enjoying the lights of Florence. Sadly the dinner rates are more then 2x the lunch rates with smaller portions.
Understanding this can be a common practice however not to the extent of our experience. Happy to pay for value however this was a gouge... sadly not likely to return.

Wonderful hotel, Pricey food and drink

The hotel is almost perfect.
The room looks better then the pictures and is ways more impressive (we have been upgraded to a room with a dome view)
The service is what you expect in a 5* hotel (welcomed with champagne, tour of the hotel...)
The breakfast was amazing.

There is always room for improvement.
-I would say that a unheated pool and jacuzzi at 20c (yes, twenty!!) was not acceptable.
-Drinks at the pool were overpriced (\"Ok\" wine at 14 euros per glass)
-Dinner's price were overpriced by at least 30%. (2 services course for 2, 1 dessert shared, 1 bottle of wine = 200 euros and 210 euros)
-Activities offered are overpriced (300 euros!! for 1 drivers for 4 hours to drive us in the Chianti area). You are better renting a car if you go there, however you will be at there mercy!

Can't get any better than this!!!

Our stay at Il Salviatino was nothing short of amazing!! Everything from the staff, accommodations, grounds/pool, and location was perfect!! Upon our arrival, we were greeted with a glass of sparkling wine and were taken on a tour of the grounds, which ended at our room -- with our bags following no more than 5 mins later!! The room and the view were unbeatable. Being able to feel like you are in the countryside while having an incredible view overlooking Florence ... yet only being 15 mins away from the city center was AMAZING! The breakfast included in our stay was one of the most extensive breakfast buffets I've seen at a hotel (and I travel a ton)! All of the food was delicious -- and the setting while you eat -- even better! We spent most of our days at the pool away from the busy city. The pool boy Alessandro was so accommodating and always made sure we had everything we needed! During the evenings, we went into the city and had the great option of using the complimentary hotel shuttle which ran every hour! This hotel was one of the greatest experiences! Anyone looking to experience Florence, but want to the ability to escape from the city during the day or night -- this is the place for you!!! LOVED everything about our stay!!!

It's the second time we've stayed at the hotel and I noticed quite a few changes. The hotel is a little \"tatty and unkept\" in places. The gym seems as though its been shoved into a make shift room and takes forever to get to. Our room had no mini-bar in it (I carry diabetic medication that needs refrigerating) and was told that we never paid for a room with a mini-bar??? Didn't know you had to???I thought that was a standard these days?
On a whole though, its still an awesome hotel, incredible restaurant staff and very comfortable beds.

Amazing hotel. Beautiful view of Florence. You feel relaxed and set apart, while still within 15 minutes of the major sites. Hospitality was amazing. They treated us very well. Service was superb. Food was great. Pool is small, but beautiful. Grounds are better than the pictures. Rooms are very unique and tasteful. They're curated to keep with the look of the villa and the library.

Perfect combination of nature beauty and comfort

Il Salviatino, is a beautiful ancient palace sitting on a hill, surrounded by nature and overlooking the city of Florence (they have a private shuttle every hour that drives you to the center).
The rooms and bathrooms are very spacious, our room was on the ground floor so we enjoyed the terrace.
Although it is an ancient villa , the decor is a bit modern with very light color , which is very relaxing .
The staff is very helpful, professional and the service is perfect . The food is exquisite especially the tuna filet. If we come back to florence one day , we wouldnt stay anywhere else.

Beautiful hotel , But

This is a beautiful looking hotel , but we found the staff at the reception to be very stuffy with a lack of friendliness and conversation not at all friendly , the only member of staff that we found friendly was the lovely girl at the pool, we where here to celebrate my wife's 50th and she was the only one who wished her happy birthday , somebody must have told her this info.
Our room was one of the garden suites which in our opinion was not 5 star and could of done with an update , we had to wait five minutes for the shower to warm up and the loo was constantly filling unless you hit the flusher hard. Breakfasts where ok but I prefer to choose my own food , room service was very limited. We ate in the restaurant one night which was excellent but very expensive . The hotel grounds are beautiful, pool area nice but the pool was not heated and very cold at the end of September . This place unfortunately is just lacking something.

Out of City Rest and Relaxation!

Staff were welcoming and hard working to ensure our stay was the best it could be.
Individualized breakfast buffet on a tray was fabulous every morning.
Not the place for those on a strict budget!
Pool was cool and relaxing with amazing views.

Amazing place!

We had a fantastic experience at Il Salviatino. Such a beautiful place, and the location was absolutely perfect for what we wanted. We wanted to feel like we were in the country while getting all the benefits (restaurants, shopping, easy transportation) of being in the city, and that's exactly what we experienced. I loved the constant casual elegance I saw in the decor, the food, and the behavior of the staff. The employees were attentive, welcoming, and accommodating. When I told them I was learning Italian, they asked if I preferred they speak Italian so I could practice. They also organized a wine tasting tour for us which was the highlight of our 10 day trip.

I easily could have stayed another week!

Beautiful hotel with magnificent views of Florence

We only had one night but it is a beautifully nestled high in the hill. I would recommend this hotel if you want rest and relaxation! Beautiful gardens and forest surround you so you have peaceful walks around the property. Food is delicious and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful.
Beautifully designed room!

Not 5 Stars

This hotel is average, certainly not 5 stars. The rooms are quite large, but the carpet is old and dirty, the bathroom was not prticlualry clean, and the facilities are subpar (pool is tiny and freezing with no place to sit and they have the cabanas shown online set up for restaurant service, which is great if you want four business men to watch you swim during their lunch; the gym is very small and minimal for a hotel of this size; the other potential facilities are unavailable because of weddings). The service is also below what you'd expect for 5 stars as well. They won't even ask you if you'd like a drink at the pool and you have to chase down a waiter if you want anything. Overall the hotel is more equivalent to courtyard Marriott than the 5 star hotels you'd imagine (e.g., St Regis, Four Seasons, etc.).

Romantic villa getaway

Outside of the center of town but the shuttle makes up for this and transports you to a villa where you can imagine you are in an Italian movie strolling the grounds and absorbing the night sky and the view over Florence.

Breakfast is beautifully served and conceived. The shower with overhead rain nozzle is lovely.

Luxury bed & breakfast style outside the city

Upon arrival we were blown away with the stature of the hotel from the outside. The distance from Florence understandably is to allow for such a regional Tuscan setting, though it did impact our activities and overall experience. The hotel also felt a little more like a luxury bed and breakfast, and we would have rated our experience as 5 stars if this was our mentality going in (and what we were after to begin with). Renovations have no doubt vastly improved the quality of the building, but the lights were difficult to use and had intermittent issues. The room was also positioned above an area where cooking smoke could easily enter the room so had to be careful to always keep windows shut. The restaurant on site is nice, but once again has a very bed and breakfast feel as other guests not dining (or those being shown the building upon arrival) may wander through while you are dining. These small things break the experience and reduce the overall rating when the price is as high as it is. The quality of the food was also hit and miss, entree's were great but both mains we ordered were battered fish and tasted average. Room service food was actually superior overall to the restaurant.

Elegant luxury

We stayed at the Il Salviatino for eight nights. Super room on the third floor with lots of character and a great view on Tuscany flora and fauna. All mod com in a classical, elegant setting. Free and simple wifi system. Turndown service every night. The breakfast was elaborate and very tasty -- and the staff was totally happy to customize our requests. Soft-boiled eggs are soft-boiled, and well-done toast is well-done. Breathtaking views over Florence from the terrace. We sat in the sun and, if it was too cold, heaters were on hand to keep one comfortable. Some days we seemed the only guests in those quiet weeks before Christmas, but the attention of the staff and the quality of the food and drinks never lapsed. Truly a first-rate experience.

Perfect!

5-star all around. Every bit of the experience was outstanding. The pool, rooms, common areas - all exceeded our expectations. It was our (my wife and I) last stop on a trip to multiple cities in Italy. I wish we would have stayed there longer! The food was a bit pricey, but delicious. Overall, the hotel makes for an excellent place to relax!

an absolute gem

We had only two nights at Il Salviatino and had it not been for coming to the end of our trip we would have stayed longer. The building is just breathtaking - so much character and beauty. The staff give real 5-star service - smart, helpful and really warm - happy to lend a hand with bookings as well. The grounds are just amazing. And the view of Florence cannot be missed. We'd definitely go back.

Comfortable luxury

Statyed for 5 nights and had an amazing time. On arrival we were met at the door by the hotel staff and checked in, all with a glass of Prosecco. The room was lovely and a good size, with a TV projecting from behind the large mirror. The bed was comfy and the shower amazing. The breakfasts were lovely, with a good selection and all cooked well. You were presented with a tray of several different things but could ask for anything else you wanted. The staff were very attentive throughout and we always there to help.

One thing to be careful with is that there is a tray in the room with bottles of water, coke, Pringles and nuts. There isn't a price list on it or anything mentioned in the material in the room, so we presumed they were complimentary...turns out they aren't. They aren't extortionately priced, but something to be aware of.

Lovey hotel with a fabulous view of Florence

We paid the price per night at this hotel for the location and to get the royal treatment during our stay.
The staff is amazing and did treat us very very well. The location is fabulous and the view breathtaking. Food was excellent as well.
My only issues were with the room. The water leaked from the bottom of the shower door and we had to stack towels to soak it up.
The hotel does not allow an ironing board in the room! and forces you to use their pressing service paying exorbitant prices.
Other than these the hotel itself is an amazing place. Living in a part of history.

Wonderful hotel close to central Florence

I have returned from Florence having spent 10 days at this hotel / I found the hotel itself to be wonderful and the staff equally great! The pool was a joy, breakfast a treat, but only minus was the restaurants own limited menu which was not changed during the period. However there are wonderful restaurants in Florence and the shuttle provided by the hotel made getting in to Central Florence very easy. We had the greenhouse suite which was excellent and beautiful gardens to relax in were a joy! I would not hestitate to recommend this hotel
