Great service! Mario was highly attentive and courteous. We loved the location, facilities and the breakfast experience! Happy to recommend and will be back when visiting my family in the area.

This is not a real dislike, it’s a recommendation - That they didn’t advertise that they have a room(s) with a bath! We loved this surprise and think more people may pick it over other accommodation in the area if they knew this 😅

the warmest of welcomes and considerate care of guests

Wonderful B&B, friendly and helpful staff and a great breakfast. It takes about 30 minutes by bus / 15 minutes by taxi to get to the B&B from Firenze center, which is not a bad thing - waking up with birds singing is pretty nice too - depending on the purpose of your visit.

This is one of my favourite places I have stayed at! The room was decorated nicely and was spacious. It was great to be able to relax in the pool and garden. Our hosts were fabulous and attentive, the selection at breakfast was great and we had a delicious lunch as well! We were given a long list of recommendations for restaurants, all those that we visited were fantastic! Thank you for a lovely stay.

We spent 10 wonderful days at this hotel, a beautiful oasis of peace after a day in the very busy city. Right from our arrival they couldn’t do enough for us and made us feel very welcome and comfortable. The hotel itself is beautiful, very clean and well maintained. The grounds are wonderful and the pool is a lovely secluded, quiet place to relax. Breakfast was great with lots of choice, with a menu to order what you wanted each night for the next day. Though it’s not in the centre of Florence, it has easy access to 2 bus routes into the city (approx 30 mins ride) and tickets are cheap for this.

Duchess was very cozy and beautiful. Luca was extremely welcoming and accommodating. His designer background definitely shines through throughout the home. Appreciated it being gated and a private backyard!

Location was a little inconvenient if you plan on consistently being in the city of Florence. Taxis or bus were very easy though. Safe and secluded.

Beautiful b&b in a nice quiet* area at the edge of Florence. Breakfast and service were great! The pool was a great extra as well. Make sure to bring deet for the mosquitos *Quiet for city standards. You can hear the train and some traffic throughout the night

We hoped to use the bikes to get into the city, but one of the bikes was broken/unrideable. Not a huge problem of course, as a bus was close that took you to the city

I’ve traveled a lot but I had never encountered such a level of attention to detail and kindness. Not only the venue is beautiful and perfectly looked after but Luca and Mario made me felt so welcome and at home that it made my stay a truly wonderful experience. They catered my every need and even anticipated them. I am beyond grateful for those three fantastic days spent at Duchess and I will most certainly be back and advertise this place.
