This property was stunning. Gorgeous views westward over the rolling Tuscan hills, paired with a cozy spa and relaxing outdoor pool were the perfect setting for a portion of our honeymoon. The staff was very friendly/helpful and management certainly does a superb job maintaining this historical setting.

Castello Banfi - Il Borgo is either a great place to anchor your restoration or to invigorate your exploration.
There's plenty to do on property: a wine tour through the high-tech wine production facility; wine tasting overlooking the Tuscan landscape (you have a substantial selection to choose from); lounging by the pool overlooking the many acres of grape vines, olive and plum trees, and the hills beyond; a visit to their glass museum; an intimate cooking class with one of the top Chefs in...

Excellent property. The resort is located on what appears to be a farm or in a farm area. We stayed for 4 nights and loved nearly everything. The room was excellent, only complaint was the bed/pillows were a bit hard for our tastes. If you like a firm mattress it will be good. We did not eat at the restaurant for lunch or dinner so we cannot comment on the quality of the food. Breakfast was typical and high quality. The spa was nice as well. They have a hydromassage pool and a regular pool, dry...

Belmond properties are always top notch and the Villa San Michele is no exception. Great service, views, and quality of facilities in a gorgeous venue above Florence.

We spent two nights in this hotel and loved it. Gardens and environment is magical. Hotel is luxurious but understated and still very friendly. We have two young daughters and everyone was very friendly and happy to see them. Restaurant is very good and staff was the best we had the whole time in Italy. We spent time in Venice and Rome and in the end everyone agreed that our time in this hotel was the best.

We loved the farm stay and the dinner at the restaurant was excellent. We were a bit disappointed that the hot tub was not included and no massage available but it was a Sunday afternoon

We booked our stay (and our guests) at this hotel thru Expedia without any knowledge of the property. We were looking for a place to stay in Florence for a few days with our friends as we traveled on to Rome for a week.
We've become accustomed to staying in nicer hotels and don't mind spending more to be in a safe, comfortable establishment with very good service. However, from the moment I parked my car in front of the hotel (in the plaza) and walked in the door I knew this was very, very...
