4 Star Hotels in Calenzano

Very positive experience. Location is in a commercial area in Prato - not near tourist sites - so it's good for a business stay. Train station is about four to six blocks away - direct line into Florence in 20 minutes or so. Very nice breakfast. The hotel staff was friendly and extremely helpful.

This hotel was very clean, the staff were very helpful, the setting in the Tuscan hills was amazing, and I could not fault the room. We felt very cosy tucked away in the hills of Tuscany. The hotel across the road had the best Italian food we had ever eaten, every dish was heaven and it was well priced. The only downfall is that public transport is not very accessible and a taxi ride to the nearest station will set you back 30€. There is a bus however, but it does not run very often, it takes you all the way in to Florence in about 40 minutes.

fine

Overall not a bad experience. However, this is labeled a "Non-Smoking" hotel, but it clearly was not always the case. The smell of stale smoke lingers so every time I walked into the hotel this was the first thing I noticed. Most important, this hotel's name is the Hotel Delta Florence. This hotel is NOT IN FLORENCE! The hotel is not even close to Florence. We took a 45 minute cab ride from the train station, which ended up costing about $40 Euro (as of June/July 2012). This is unreasonable since all the tourist activities and access is in Florence. This would be almost $100 Euro round trip if you took a cab. Our option: take a bus for $1.20 each way/$2.40 round trip into Florence, which takes 35-55 minutes depending on the time of day. Luckily, there is a stop directly across from the hotel, so at least you don't waste time looking for the bus stop. This means you have to build in travel time to catch the bus and catch your train, making for very long days You'll be in Calenzano. Just plan accordingly...
