Villa Vignamaggio  

It lived up to its reputation as a Villa for the movie set; Rustic houses, gorgeous gardens, lovely statues. And who can forget the rooms, the good folks upgraded us to the 1 room apartment suite, The fact that the reception leaves after 5pm does not bother us one bit!! In fact, we were the only couple in the whole villa that 2 nights and we loved the freedom. We strolled when we felt liked it, time almost stopped carelessly at Vignamaggio. 2 nights is a travesty. At least 3 nights folks!

1Hr bus ride from Florence sita and another 15Euros for a 10min Limo- ride from bus stop to the villa, courtesy of the hotel's recommended Limo service, Mr Stephano. But its the country side, its expected!.

Wonderful Tuscan villa in a magnificent location: close to Greve in Chianti and to all the other important areas of Chianti Classico, while Florence is only about 1h away. The Villa is incredibly elegant and perfectly restored. The gardens very beautiful too. The views of Tuscany are the best you can ask for: rolling hills, vineyards, forest. Vignamaggio truly has it all: the rooms are very elegant and perfectly kept. The staff is friendly and very hands on. Restaurant is great also and the Vignamaggio-bottled wines are truly world-class... I highly recommend it.

The staff was very helpful, friendly and curteous. The location is very pitturesque, vignards as far as the eye can see. The wine tour was amazing. Villa Vignamaggio is a gem to visit!

Please exercise caution when driving the long and winding road to get there.

After booking, we received an email from the villa stating that the apt. Was no longer available. We were upgraded to a magnificent suite with the most beautiful view of the countryside.

Fantastic surroundings, nature, arcitecture, wine and food. Unforgettable! And the crew was very service minded and helpful assisting us with anything. The two pools and the spa was great and we used it a lot during the stay. Don't forget to try Restoro de Lamole about 7 km up the hill from Vignamaggio. Great food and view over the whole valley. Perfect!

The nicest breakfast with a smile

Nice place (houses and gardens)

Reception closing at 7pm

The grounds are very beautiful and serene, though the "private" signs all over the place made it rather unwelcoming.

Very overpriced for the quality of the accommodation. The bed was uncomfortable - with serious sagging on one side. Our first room (we asked to be moved and they kindly obliged, which was good of them) was a dark musty apartment that had a large spider with eggs in the bathroom and some dirt in the bath proper. The shower was in the bath and handheld so quite inconvenient. Supposedly this was a superior room they had "upgraded" us to, but when we asked we were moved into a basic room that seemed a hundred times nicer (aside from the bed - though the first room's bed was also uncomfortable). Apart from that the service was generally very hands off, they advertise a winery tour and a restaurant that were not mentioned at all during our stay. Breakfast was expensive at 14 euro pp and is in a separate building down a hill. We ate there twice and on the second occasion (which was reasonably busy - though not terribly busy) were ignored by the service staff for quite some time - despite requests for coffee and our table to be provided with plates/cutlery. We don't mind reserved service but generally it seemed to be the sort of place where you needed to assert yourself to get the basics,so couldn't recommend at this price.

L'atmosfera, raffinata senza ostentazione; il comfort; la sensazione di essere ospite in una casa privata; la cura dei particolari; la gentilezza dello staff, sempre presente e disponibile, mai invadente. Il prezzo: proporzionato al livello dell'ospitalità ed al mantenimento della struttura che deve essere molto più "sostanziosa" di quanto possa apparire a prima vista.

Die freundluchkeit der mitarbeiter ist toll. Die lage wunderbar und die romantik unbeschreiblich. Wir empfehlen es weiter.

Wunderschöner Gebäudekomplex und Garten.

Da tranquilidade e das instalações. A localização é excelente, próxima de Greve e com auma natureza exuberante.

O funcionamento do elevador de acesso aos quartos, limitado a 19:00 hs.

As instalações são lindas, o quartoé muito confortavel

O hotel fica deserto apos 19 horas, um dia um hospede quebrou a chave na porta, ficamos muito tempo pra resolver este problema.
