It was adequate
Was clean and it was sufficient to sleep at. Staff wasn’t rude but not what one would call outgoing and helpful. We had a problem with the AC leaking all over the floor and around the door. Instead of fixing it or changing rooms. The desk clerk handed me a bath mat and walked away. 4 days we stayed and no one bothered to fix it or anything. Instead it dripped over the entry door and out into the hall. Floor was marble tile inside and outside except for the carpet runner that was in the hall which got soaked and I’m sure will be moldy by now. No help from the staff and not even a sorry we will try to fix it later. Pictures on hotel.com were of new furniture and nice decor for the lobby and sitting areas. My guess is they were removed and replaced after the photos with older furniture. Pictures of the outside the hotel were also old. Supposedly a nice grassy area which is all dug up and under construction now.

Nice hotel close to Florence by car.
Nice hotel but slightly off the beaten path. We stayed there because we had a car so it was a less expensive option than in Staying in Florence. People were helpful and courteous, especially the concierge. He helped us with directions and suggestions about things to do. Excellent restaurant and a nice continental breakfast that was included in price. We would stay there again.

worth considering!
Great service, very friendly people. I was sick the last night and asked for privacy to be able to sleep and everyone was on top of it!! The breakfast is pretty basic but sufficient and of good quality. The only thing is the internet wireless connection. It does not work in the rooms and there is not a wired option either. Other than that, I would have given it a 5.

Wonderful place. Only 20min from Florence but away enough so you can enjoy the amazing view of the city. The staff was super friendly, the hotel was clean, and the restaurant next door is very good. Definitely coming back.

Manager was extremely helpful which was much appreciated. He gave us directions to places to visit etc. the staff also was very helpful. We did find that the floor tile and bathroom tile needed cleaning as there was black mold.

Room with a view
The hotel exterior is awesome, great location with a wonderful view of the city. However, the rooms could use some updating with new paint, new bedding, better pillows (not flat ones). And fix the water pressure for the showers. It was a trickle. The staff was wonderful, very friendly and extremely helpful.

Specatacular view + accomodations!
The room was beautiful with a fantastic view. Very quiet and peaceful surroundings. We had a mix up and thought our ipad was missing and the hotel staff took it very seriously and helped us look for it, which we found once our daughter remembered she had placed jt in a side pocket of one of the luggage. The location was very quaint but the hotel had great accomodations. We would stay there again in a heart beat. Was very close to Florence by car.

Relaxing hotel stay in Impruneta
No kettle is provided. The hotel staff brought us to get hot water from a coffee ventilation machine in the breakfast area. It was slow to fill up a bottle. Breakfast food choice is limited. GPS brought us to wrong place; hotel staff already know but they should have either 'adjust' the address or provided the alternative route to the top of the hill. Limited restaurant or food store (no supermarket)near the hotel. Might have some in Impruneta town which is 5-7km away. Good heaters and family room size with 2 huge beds. Nice panaromic view of the town from hotel room and restaurant.

Hillside Gem
We had a car, so not a problem with this hillside gem. Dinner and breakfast were very good. Service was very friendly. Only a 10 km drive into Firenze on SS2. Price was great!

LOVE IT!!!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this hotel. This is my second time staying and both times have been exceptional. The hotels offers a beautiful view, features a FANTASTIC restaurant on site (buses drop groups off here for dinner!), and the staff are always wonderful. The rooms are large, as well as the bathroom. It's about 20 minutes outside of Florence and the hills are a steep climb, but it is most definitely worth it. The first time we visited, we had to walk from the bus stop all the way up and it was quite a hike; fortunately a gentleman offered to drive us up with our luggage. The second time we visited, we had a car so it was easier. There are two ways to drive up; the bus route is more direct and easier than the steep, winding, narrow local road.

Family trip!
Our stay at villa Ambrosina was wonderful! Our room was very big. With a wonderful view!!!! It's 15 to 20 minutes from florence, so you need a car to get there! Just check your GPS because its not so easy to get there, in our GPS we had 4 options for the same adress, we where lucky to get there in our first try! You have a wonderful restaurant in the hotel! Try it! The hotel staff is really helpfull they even booked us a tour! My 15 year old son told us if our room had a balcony with a table and some chairs and had a better breakfast it can be a 5 star hotel!

Gem on a Hill
We liked it so much we extended out stay. Finding it will require a good GPS and still will need some tweaking. Be sure to go to the top of the main street and look for the sharp right turn and drive past "you are at your location". You will see the hotel as you wind around the narrow street. Watch out for on coming cars. Honk on the blind corners. You will not regret your decision. The restaurant adjacent to the hotel is truly excellent. You can't go wrong!!

Out of the way villa
We chose this sight as it was listed as just over 5 miles from the train station. That's a straight line....not actual driving time. The villa itself is pretty and has a nice view. Some things to consider for personal comforts- our room was on the 2nd floor and we had to get the luggage up the steps. We got free wi-fi but it didn't reach our room so if we wanted to use the internet we had to go to the next building. The bus stop is within a reasonable distance, but you have to walk down the steep road the villa is on and then along the highway with no sidewalks to get to it. Our room was nice overall but there was mold growing above the shower. So overall I think this villa would make an ok location for those who are driving around Italy, and with the above mentioned issues in mind.

Don't trust your GPS
You must enter off the main road. ...otherwise you get loat in the natrow steep streets. The hotel is located a short drive from Florence with an awesome view. The rooms are very nice and the restaurant good too! We couldn't connect to wifi in our room and I'd say the cleaners need a good talking to.

Nice to stay for out of city experience
The hotel is really good with a breath taking view. The staff are very polite and extremely helpful. You would need a taxi or car to reach the place not so easy by foot or bus. I would recommend this if you want to stay in the Tuscan country side.

Ok for one night
We stayed in this hotel for two nights and upon entering our room found a lot of bugs on the ceiling and walls. Also, the floor was quite dirty with hair and dust. When we asked to switch rooms the front desk claimed that they were full and had no other vacancies. We did not believe this as there were only 2 other families there while we were there, and we never saw anyone else. The a/c was something to be desired; unless you were standing directly in front of the a/c unit it was hot and humid in the room. We tried the restaurant the second evening we were there, the food was ok, it was just very oily. The road up to the hotel is very steep and bumpy, I would not suggest anyone walk up this road; a car is necessary when staying here. All in all, it is ok for a one night stay, no longer.

Difficult to find even with a GPS. Hotel ok, room ok but really nothing special about it. It was value for money.
