Art Hotel Villa Agape - Place of Charme

The property is stunning. It’s my third time visiting Florence and my first stay outside the city center and I can say it was by far the best choice. The gardens and all the the small places around them you can enjoy a glass of wine are absolutely beautiful and so quiet and peaceful, it really makes no sense to stay within the city walls for the same price. They also have a shuttle that takes you to the city and back in about 10 min and from the drop off place you have a maybe 10 min walk to the city center so you are not missing out on anything and you are not tied down to using a taxi or a personal car. You get the best of both worlds: a true tuscan experience and views and an easy access to Florence. I will definitely come back.

The shuttle service was excilent. Beautiful villa with a magnificent garden and view. Perfect location, very helpful and friendly staff, especially Mario and Sarah. The room was cleaned every day. Breakfast and lunch were always delicious.

This is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful hotels we have stayed in. The grounds are exquisite with lots of different areas to sit and enjoy the surroundings. Parking was easy, just in the front of the hotel. Staff were exemplary. Breakfast was excellent as were the two evening meals we enjoyed there. The courtesy bus into Florence is a great facility; although it ends at 8pm, it was no problem to get a taxi back later in the night and usually cost around £10.00/€13 The hotel is extremely dog friendly, too. This was the second time my husband had stayed. We really hope to return a third time.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hotel Agape for 10 days, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, the exceptional staff made me feel like royalty, going above and beyond to ensure my stay was nothing short of perfect. Their attention to detail and warm hospitality were unmatched. The villa itself is like a countryside palace, surrounded by enchanting English gardens that look like they’re straight out of a fairytale. The serene beauty of the surroundings added a magical touch to my stay. My room was a masterpiece of stylish design, combining elegance with comfort, and the cleanliness was impeccable—easily one of the best I’ve experienced. Hotel Agape is not just a place to stay; it’s a retreat for guests seeking tranquility and charm. The convenience of their shuttle service made exploring Florence a breeze, as they arranged transportation to all the main tourist areas. This thoughtful service made my trip even more enjoyable. If I ever return to Florence, there’s no doubt that Hotel Agape will be my home again. I can’t recommend this gem of a hotel highly enough!

We wanted to stay in an Italian Villa and the hotel is just that. Lovely large room with a window that overlooked the fountain lawn. The bathroom was not large but functional. Breakfast had a good selection including fresh made juices. The automatic coffee machine did a good job as well. The hotel is a distance from the city centre - we didn't walk from the hotel but rather opted for the shuttle which was available during certain time on call with the last pick at 8pm. There are 2 drop off/pick up the second being the closest to the city about 15min walk. The hotel restaurant was recommended to us by some other guest but we didn't try it opting to discover the local places near the drop off. The staff were very engaged and aways helpful.
