We stayed at the Villa Medici for 3 days and had an amazing time. The hotel is centrally located in Florence and convenient to the train station (10 min walk). Its also a historic property - I believe it was once a monastery and has been lovingly restored. It has everything you need including a pool and great restaurant. It also has an amazing staff who are extremely helpful and courteous. Also, the breakfast buffet was amazing - especially when traveling with 4 kids who appreciated being able to choose their own items. Will definitely stay here on our next trip to Florence.
The staff were friendly and very helpful. Facility very nice.

Beautiful hotel located close to train station & walking distance to restaurants & attractions. The garden & pool area are very nice. But I don’t consider this a 5 star hotel. On the day we checked in, we were given key to room 442. A big room with a mountain view, a large closet & bathroom with tub & shower. We left to explore, when we came back at night we noticed an awful smell in the hall & the door to our room was open (not unlocked but open). We called the front desk to ask what happened they said it was the person who did the turndown service left it open. Not ok. After checking to make sure our stuff was all there we went to the garden to see if the smell would dissipate. We went back an hour later but the smell was awful. It smelled like sewage. We went downstairs to discuss with front desk, the woman there told us she couldn’t go upstairs to check on the issue but she could give us another room. She gave us a smaller room facing the street & we took it cause we couldn’t deal with the smell. I thought this was a new issue but after reading Google reviews people have complained of the smell going back to 2022. I shared my frustration with her & she seemed surprise that this was an issue. That is gaslighting if people have complained for years. Once in the new room I jumped into the shower, only to realize the soap dispenser was empty. Bad smell, door left open & lack of toiletries are reasons I wouldn’t consider this 5 stars.
When we arrived to the property, the hotel it was nothing as described in pictures. Rooms were a disaster, Hôtel corridor dirty, nothing to be with a 5 stars - the hotel it’s old, dirty, rooms ugly and mattress and furniture in the rooms damaged.we decided to cancel and look for another hotel. We end up staying at the Excelsiur Hôtel, much better hotel
Very friendly and polite staff during my entire stay
room and facilities are well maintained and clean
excellent location walkable to train station and local main area
would revisit this hotel if we ever come to Lucca again!
Nice well kept and pool area is a major plus. The gym and bar area need an update. Beautiful room and lobby. A little out of the way but still walkable to most areas.
it may not be in the center of town, but it is easily within a 5-10 minute walk. The staff was very accommodating and eager to assist us in any way. Never had a moment I was not satisfied with it!
Poor Wifi. Friendly staff. Not great for kids as pool didn’t open until the heat of the day was upon us. Breakfast was excellent. Lovely pizza restaurant a few doors down, with excellent Wifi and a very relaxed atmosphere.

Horrible service fir a 5 star hotel
Although the hotel was very nice, the service was just terrible. Room service, housekeeping (needed an iron and they couldn’t find one), bar service at Henry’s bar was all incredibly slow and really bad.

Beware Premium rooms
Location was good, and having a garden and small pool was great. Otherwise it was all pretty average - a tick in the box but nothing special. Only issue was Premium rooms - we paid for Premium (highest bracket and notionally in the top floor with best views) only to be told that the hotel website was wrong and that Premium rooms were on every floor. The top floor room they offered for second and succeeding nights was smaller with single sink and shower attachment over the bath. Frankly I was left with the feeling that ‘premium’ applied only to pricing - don’t bother.

Disliked: Amenities
The size of the room . The air condicioner of room 262 does not work well . O asked for an iron and iron board and i am still waiting for it and never received a feedback. At breakfast i was charged for an omelet with breakfast included . In a hotel with this price it makes no sense charge the omelet. I had issues with the room cleaning. Arrived 7 pm one day and the room had not been cleaned . The next day 3:30 pm the same situation. The shower is complicated because of the position of the drain and metal conections . I arrived at the property aproxinatelly at 5 pm . The room was ready but when received the bill i was charged for parking ( i artived in a train and reached the hotel by taxi ). I understand that the past guest of room might had a car but the issue should have been settled with the former guest and not with me. I have been other times to Florence and stayed at other hotels . This property underperformed " its reputation " .
