The room was very spacious and clean. The host very kind. The grounds could use some gardening work and I would pave a path that leads to the entrance. We were there in rainy days and the parking area and short way to the entrance were very muddy and slippery. Our room was impeccable, however the breakfast and check in area had a moldy smell. I know that houses in the countryside can encounter this problem during rainy days due to increased humidity, however I think that some improvement in term of isolating the walls could be done to reduce the odor. Also a bigger sign would help. Other than that, I really liked the rustic atmosphere and room was very comfortable with spacious bathroom.

The purpose our visit to Fiesole was to celebrate our friend's birthday whom we had not seen for years. We had never heard of Fiesole, but they were staying there for a 3 week holiday (from Canada) and so we joined them with zero expectations. Fiesole was absolutely lovely, and frankly two days was not enough. We ate very well at local restaurants and visited the lovely Franciscan monastery on top of the hill, which is well worth a look. An incredible museum with Chinese coins dating back to the 100AC (!) and an Egyptian mummified kitten amongst other extremely old antiquities! Was not expecting that LOL!
View of Florence is spectacular from Fiesole, and to think you are in a small little quiet 'village' just 20 mins drive away.

Nestled in the hills just a stone's throw away from Florence, Fiesole is a quaint Italian town that may not boast an extensive list of attractions, but it captivates visitors with its serene ambiance and unparalleled vistas of the Tuscan capital. If you're in search of a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of Florence, Fiesole is the perfect destination.

We did not see much of Fiesole because our stay was short and we were focused on Florence but we would really like to have visited the Roman ruins of Fiesole. The part of town that we stayed in has a nice piazza with a restaurant, an ice-cream parlor and a really yummy food truck. It is really well connected to Florence (a cheap bus takes you to the city in 20 min. and it comes every 15 so it is really convenient). The restaurant has a gorgeous view of the whole valley with Florence in the middle. We also saw the post office and a grocery store around there. It is really a pleasant town with a lot to offer.

Quaint little town on the hill above Florence, easily accesable by bus from the centre of Florence. There are few restaurants and cafe's in the centre and also a historic centre with Roman ruins and a museum. We had 3 nights tehre, but could have easily stayd more, as the vibe of the small time is great and if you get bored you can easily go to Florence and back.

Fiesole is a beautiful vibrant village in the hills above Florence. Wonderful views back towards the city. Fascinating history to explore. The perfect place to stay out of the hustle of the city and only a 20 odd minute bus trip away. Lots of great bars and restaurants. A well stocked small supermarket. We love Fiesole.

Deliberately booked fiesole as didn't want the chaos of florence centre.However, there is a number 7 bus that goes back and forth 1.50 euro takes about 22 mins and very frequent.I believe would get a better class hotel in centre and yes same price or less .The walks are tiring around fiesole but views worth it. we were lucky sun was shining each day. some amazing sunsets about 7pm.Little cake shop towards bottom hill ALCEDO cheapest coffee to go and amazing cakes.Coop sells all need to make picnics as food is very costly
Pensione Bencista is a wonderful place to stay with absolutely magnificent views of Florence from many windows, and from the terrace restaurant. The gourmet food at the restaurant was superb and the staff attentive. Letitzia the manager who welcomed us was a delight, and very helpful with arranging a medical referral as well ( much appreciated!), and bus tickets too! It is a very special place and we highly recommend it and won’t hesitate to stay again!! Laura also is a wonderful host and you feel like a personal guest in her home!
The innkeepers were delightful. They let us check in a little early and were SO accomodating. They offered advice into how to get into Florence proper, giving us the scoop on the cheapest public parking around. The house was amazing - one tower was built in the 1200's, the other in the 1400's and the home was a stopping point for the De Medici family. At night, it's super quiet and you can hear the cicadas singing. Breakfast was delicious - the fresh made apple strudel still makes my mouth water! Bonus - The property is GORGEOUS!
this property is in a idyllic location, the view is spectacular! there were enough bars and restaurants in Fiesole for the 3 nights we were there. check in process was really easy and I loved the security measures the property had. The apartment had everything we needed, perfectly suited for our stay. The bed was huge and really comfy. shower was absolutely fantastic. plus the apartment had more space than I expected. Fiesole was perfect to escape the manic city of Florence at the end of the day😁
The host Marianna was wonderful. So friendly and welcoming, she helped us with a recommendation for a restaurant overlooking Florence and it was lovely. It is a perfect location to visit Florence and the surrounding countryside. The town of Fiesole is nearby and is beautiful with a charming atmosphere. The room was perfect for our needs and we had a simple but tasty breakfast with a home made tart cooked fresh that morning. Thank you :)
A very charming and wonderful place to stay, especially for a trip to Florence. Stefania is a very welcoming and lovely host. The rooms are spacious, clean and decorated in a lovely Italian style. The center of the town is in just 2 mins walk, where you can find restaurants and also the bus to Florence city center. The breakfast is very delicious and you can enjoy some wondrous home made Italian pastries. Would love to return!
Stayed at this apartment and couldn't have been happier! It was impeccably clean and comfortable with all amenities provided. The location is perfect, with a bus stop less than a 5-minute walk away, and frequent buses to Florence. The view from the apartment is breathtaking. Special shoutout to our host, Duccio, who was incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend!
Pensione Bencista' is exceptionally charming and beautiful. in a historic building and gardens of old olive trees, flowers and herbs that the chef uses in his delicious menus. The view is unparalleled, from the terrace and dining area you can watch stunning sunsets over Florence that will take your breath away. The staff was extremely gracious and welcoming and professional.
The place was nice with all facilities and cozy. Was walkable distance from the bus station to Florence and we have bakeries and restaurants and supermarket in a walkable distance . Just outside the place, a few steps and you see a beautiful view of Florence city from a good elevation point. Roberto was friendly and guided to the house. I had a very relaxed vacation.
Everything. Fiesole is a nice spot : beautiful, quiet, close to Firenze. The apartment is well equipped, have dishwasher and washing machine. The view from the terrace is awesome. And a lot of good restaurants in a walking distance. Tommaso as the owner is very friendly and always helpful.
Very peaceful and quiet place with an amazing garden. Bus #7 goes frequently to Florence and the stop isn't far from the apartment. Fiesole is a beautiful and cozy little town with some nice restaurants. Staying here was a really nice change after spending a few days in noisy, busy cities.
a working farm that offered multiple services: lodging, food service, farm animals for children to enjoy feeding, large parties accommodations, walking and exploring. Very well managed and maintained only 3 miles from Florence, IT. Lovely location!
The hotel is beautifully situated overlooking countryside towards Florence. Staff very helpful and friendly. This was particularly so as my wife was unwell during our stay. Upgraded to a deluxe room on arrival. Lovely room.
The setting and surrounding countryside were beautiful! Gorgeous pool. So serene. Hard to believe Florence was 4 miles away. Great bus 7 into Florence, after we parked in Fiesole.
Excellent breakfast on the patio.
Very beautiful location and a great hotel with swimming pool. We were able to walk into Fiesole and use a taxi to get to and from Florence. We had a relaxing end to our visit to Tuscany.
An authentic Tuscan agriturismo hotel with personal touch. Silvia, the owner, was most gracious and helpful. We had chats about the property and life in Fiesole. Wonderful insights.
Incredibly beautiful hotel, extremely helpful concierge, amazing view of Florence, great pool & bar. Very convenient shuttle service to Florence. Perfect for romantic holidays.
Basic room but bright and clean and with a gorgeous view on the hills around Fiesole. The owner is very nice, he gave us plenty of information and helped us with our requests.
