Grace was a wonderful host and made us feel very welcome. The B&B is in a beautiful location, set amongst olive trees on the hillside. It was a real treat to sit by the pool and relax during the day. In the evenings we caught the bus into Firenze, it runs every 30 minutes from the bottom of the hill. We had a car and used this to drive up and down the hill as it’s quite steep and would take a good 20 to 30 minutes on foot. The road is narrow, so drive with care. The bus takes about 20/25 minutes to get the centre of Florence.

The drive up is a tiny windy road, not ideal for a large car.

Very nice property, very quiet, very relaxing atmosphere, welcoming host, nice pool.

The meal selection is limited, and the prices are high.

The property is amazing — clean, cozy, and welcoming — and Grace, the householder, is such a lovely woman!

No complaints

It was unfortunate that we did not have a car and the bus was much further to walk than we expected. This was a shame however no fault of the property but for older travellers like us take a car!

It was a beautiful place and the owners were lovely.

Quiet and beautiful place with large and cosy rooms. A nice pool and garden. The host is very friendly and helpful. It is situated perfectly for trips to Firenze - 22 min by bus or 15 min by car

Nothing.

We love that the property is away from the city and it’s very quiet, we felt like we truly escaped and found peace staying here, even just for one night. I’ll totally be back if i ever come back to Florence.

Nothing comes to mind. Just be warned that the beautiful road to the property is narrow.

Actually it would have been a great stay on its own but we were there to visit Florence and hence couldn't enjoy it as much as we should have. There is a tiny but very efficient kitchenette in the room with all that one needs to fix a quick snack.

The bed was too soft and springi for us

Grace is so nice and informative, a lot of good recomdations and helpful. Everything was clean, the location very comfortable if you need to go to the city often.

Can't think of anything!

An incredibly special place made even more special by the wonderful attention from Grace. Her breakfasts were highlights of our days. Very peaceful retreat, perfect for getting away.

Only request would have been a firmer mattress but to some extent that is personal preference.

Everything - stunning location, super friendly host, perfectly appointed kitchenette in the room. Everything was in impeccable order.

- Nothing. It was perfect.

- Grace (the host) is AMAZING and made our stay comfortable special… she’s kind and friendly and has created the most amazing guesthouse in Tuscany - You feel like you are lost in the Tuscan countryside but you are a 10/15 minute walk to grocery stores, cafes and a couple of good restaurants - It is unbelievably peaceful and beautiful (great for keen walkers) - Breakfast is both filling and delicious (all handmade by Grace) - Rooms decorated brilliantly (and have air conditioning) - As you can tell, we loved it and felt extremely at home - Vineyard 100yd away for wine tastings etc

Superb Breakfast

Not a huge thing, but it would be cool if we were allowed to interact with or learn about the agricultural aspects. A little path or self-guided info tour might be fun for us curious type people. Laundry somewhere nearby would be a perk as well.

Quiet, clean, friendly. Other reviews mentioned construction on property. It looks like they are renovating a building to accommodate more guests. Based on how they did these rooms it will be very nice and charming.

Missing mosquito net in our flat

Everything, nice staff and explain everything well, the place was super nice and clean and comfortable to go to the city center

I’ve seen more comfortable bed but it was not a big deal for us. Also, the rooms are not so much soundproof and there was an 11 months old baby crying a LOT when we where there. I feel this kind peaceful of place should be a “crying free” resort but this is just my opinion. Overall we still LOVED our experience!

Grace was a wonderful host. Il Viaio is a cute, charming, calm and peaceful spot. There is a wineyard nearby (5 min walk) which is nice as well. Breakfast were soooooo good as well !

A little uncomfortable mattress.

A beautiful place close to Florence, but also suitable to relax under the olive trees in the garden with swimming pool. Very nice hostess.

Nothing walking distance (restaurant, bus stop)

Great room, good breakfast , helpful landlady, proximity to Florence

Stayed in July 2023

The location is a bit remote. The nearest services for shopping and cooked food purchase do not always display prices so they'll overcharge if they get a chance.

The place is really nice and host is very helpful.

The hill to walk up and I loved/hated that it wasn’t closer to town. The bus was super easy though.

Loved the pool and quiet area. Breakfast was great as well.

Hard to get a taxi to the staton

If you are looking at staying somewhere a little out of Florence and away from The Hustle and Bustle of the city this is perfect . Grace is a fabulous hostess and is more than happy to help anyway she can. The rooms are comfortable and the breakfast a delight with many home made products from Grace. It’s is a long walk with luggage from where the busy drops you from town and it’s uphill so I would suggest getting a taxi. This is easy from the station but more difficult from the accommodation so book with plenty of time as sometimes they cancel. All and all a lovely place to stay with stunning views

if you don’t have a car, it’s a long walk up a steep hill with heavy bags. if you visit without a car, it’s best to get the bus to girone as the walk up that way isn’t as bad. we got the train from Florence to compiobbi and the walk up the hill that way was really tough going. I think the breakfast was a bit expensive and there aren’t any shops nearby to avoid it. a kettle in the room would’ve been great too.

it’s in the beautiful Tuscan countryside. it’s really clean and tidy, has comfy beds, a good shower and air conditioning. the swimming pool is lovely too.
