“Located a reasonable distance from the city center, this villa possesses a distinctive character that sets it apart from conventional hotels. The building, once a consulate, showcases original frescoes and antique furniture, creating a 19th-century diplomat's residence vibe which makes it more of an interesting bed and breakfast. I found the garden a particularly welcome feature, a peaceful refuge within the city.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel Villa Liana is often described as a charming and cozy retreat, conveniently located about 10-20 minutes by foot from Florence's main attractions such as Santa Maria del Fiore. Guests frequently appreciate the spacious rooms that some describe as apartment-like, and some rooms even include a big bathtub with shower. The delicious breakfast is a highlight for many, and it's often enjoyed in a breakfast room reminiscent of Jane Austen films. A few guests have mentioned that some rooms might be located on the second floor without elevator access, but the hotel's location near a large park makes it a great value.
