Donatella was a great host and we enjoyed staying with her. She was very helpful in recommendations and a wonderful cook. My husband and I stayed in the “La Mansarda” loft, it was very spacious and clean. Sitting down in the huge tug to shower was a new experience, but "when in Rome..." My only tiny complaint was at night... More

After the wedding, my wife and I traveled through Italy. In Florence, we found this wonderful quiet B&B. We stayed in the room, "Wisteria". It is quiet, beautiful and cozy. Donatella, the hostess the house, is pleasant woman with a smile. I still remember with pleasure her awesome breakfasts with herbal tea in the garden.

Monte Oliveto is a bit distance from the city center. However a few bus lines are just one step away, with which i can almost reach all the attractions including train station with one reach. Donatella is a fantastic hostess. Breakfast is always served with big variety. I did not have the feeling of staying in a hotel but rather... More

Good food, great hospitality, and artistic room. The B&B is not at the historical center of Florence, but could reach the major attractions by foot within 20min to half an hour. Yet it's nearer to those fantastic restaurants the locals frequent. Donatella is both a great host and cook, very helpful with all the tourist informations. The room is very... More

If you're looking for a b&b then look no further! Donatella was an amazing hostess and was so incredibly gracious. What u see from the pics is an honest representation of your stay. We stayed in the Wistaria room and we had a lovely terrace off our room. It was extremely quiet and clean. It wasn't in the heart of... More

We stayed at Monte Olivieto in June last year and absolutely loved it. The little rooftop studio is like a self contained appartment with a lovely little balcony, kitchen and spacious bathroom and it felt like living in Florence rather than visiting. As others have mentioned, it is away from the hustle and bustle of touristy Florrence, yet within walking... More

If you're looking for a B&B right in the middle of everything which makes you think you're at a hotel and you're just saving some money...... this is not the place for you. If, however, you're looking for a gorgeous, out of the way, quiet B&B, where the lovely hostess treats you like family and cooks you a ridiculously delicious... More

We spent here a week in November and were very happy that we'd chosen this B&B. It is wonderfully located, in a quiet district far from crowds of tourists and at the same time just 20 minutes walk from the railway station and 15 minutes walk from Ponte Vecchio. Donatella, its charming host, was friendly and helpful (she called the... More

everything was great: the quiet location, wonderful breakfast, Martha and Donatella gave us excellent advise on eating, getting around, and what to see. They even provided maps. could not have asked for a better place.
