In a quiet corner in the center of Florence, an 18th-century palazzo houses the Grand Hotel Villa Medici. Boasting an ideal location near the Arno River and the city's most important cultural and historic sights, this sophisticated retreat offers a tranquil garden setting in the midst of the city and the ambiance of a private residence with unforgettable Florentine views. Recently the hotel has undergone renovations, giving it a brand new look and a complete facelift. History, tradition and class have been for ever a symbol of this hotel, and the changes make the ambiance softer and elegant, offering guests a contemporary vision of the ground floor without loosing the past elements that the hotel is so proud of.

I wouldn’t consider this a 5 star hotel by any means. There isn’t actually a door man, and most of the other luxuries you would expect from a 5 star hotel are also not very obvious either. Be carful in considering if you want to stay in an old historic building. The funk of old stays with the royal suites in terms of smell, uncomfortable furniture and heavy room perfume in an attempt of the staff to hide the smells. All the combos can make you sick. The mattress is old, lumpy and so thin you won’t sleep well. Harry’s Bar is expensive and they aren’t very skilled in making cocktails.

Beautiful architecture and design. Rooms are tired. Sofa reminded me of my great grandparents. Quite unbelievable actually as we had a suite. People very friendly🙃 and great service. Needs plus $50M to make it a four star much less a five. I’d stay at the AC because it’s new and tired….. This horse needs to be….

Absolutely beautiful and stunning hotel. The property is gorgeous, the rooms are spacious, and the staff is wonderful. The staff makes you feel like you are in your own palatial home. There are areas where you can relax alone or be with others. Just can't rave enough about this hotel. Very friendly and accommodating staff and wonderful piano player in the evenings. Good location less than a mile to the Ponte Vecchio.

It’s very nice and elegant inside and outside. However the location is questionable. My wife and I didn’t feel safe to walk at night. We are Marriott titanium members and breakfast not included. We paid around $650USD per night for 7days. I think it’s over priced.

Really enjoyable stay at a location/hotel set slightly outside the most popular tourist spots of Florence. Having never stayed in a Autograph hotel from the Marriott range, I was really looking forward to seeing the difference and was not disappointed. Great decor in & around the hotel, the bedroom was excellent, with a high standard finish including the bathroom and the little touches from the concierge & desk made the stay really pleasant. Most interesting is the garden/pool nestled at the back of the hotel which when enjoyed offers a rather unique experience, deep in a busy city. Highly recommended

We stayed at the Grand Hotel Villa Medici in April. From the moment we were greeted by our courteous driver at the train station to our return, our expectations were exceeded. The room was lovely, overlooking all of Florence, and we knew we would spend time watching the sunset every evening. And the fresh flowers, wonderful cantuccini and vin santo were a welcome treat!
