“Living "la dolce vita" in the posh quarters of Florence”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 May 2010

This B&B is the perfect place for a lovely relaxing Italian getaway holiday and the perfect location to discover Tuscany by car. It's very close to the "autostrada" and all major cities (Pisa, Lucca, Siena, Pistoia, Arezzo, ...) are a 2-hour-drive away tops. The "must sees" are San Gimignano, Volterra and Montepulciano though (you may always contact me for tips and information). Florence city is the nearest of course, but it's quite a long walk by foot (plus the way back is all uphill, which takes you even longer) so we recommend to take the car or buss down into the city center. VILLA I GIULLARI is located in the quiet and posh "villa" quarters just outside the busy city center of Florence and offers a relaxing stay in beautiful Italian style rooms, with great views, a lovely breakfast each morning, and not to forget the warm hospitality of Guidetta and Teneil. Don't be afraid to ask them for anything! I would recommend this place to everyone who wants to discover Florence & Tuscany and experience the relaxed and refined Italian way of life. -------- PS: We were allowed to bring our dog (pug, small breed) and got offered a special groundfloor room with it's own entrance and closed private garden which was so nice of the owner. It made our stay (and especially this of our dog) even more enjoyable! -------- PS: B&B VILLA I GIUALLARI is currently redesigning their garden and adding a swimming pool so from summer 2010 your stay should be even more enjoyable!!!

“Super BB on the hills of Florence”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 March 2010

Hospitable, friendly and very well situated: for us the ultimate location for a short trip to Florence. The rest of the area, 20 minutes walk from the beautiful city. Private and very friendly service. Absolute must.

“Absolutely perfect!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 November 2009

We spent three nights at Via I Giullari during our stay in Italy. It was exactly what we were looking for in a B&B - quiet location, fantastic views, well-appointed bath, a sense fof privacy, and a great hostess. The breakfast was well-executed european fare - a selection of Italian hams and cheeses, brioche, cerals, fresh fruits, breads. We were lucky enough to be one of only two couples in the B&B when we were there. I can't say enough about our hostess; she was accomodating, helpful, and gave us great tips for local restaurants and destinations.

One thing to point out is that this B&B is not in Firenze proper, but is just outside the city on the hillside. You can walk into town or to some of the nearby restaurants, but you should probably plan to use taxis or the bus for most travel into the city. Walking down the hill into town is a fine 15-20 minute stroll; coming back up the hill with shopping bags or just tired after a day of sight-seeing may be more than you want to attempt. The good news is that the bus stop is literally only 25 yards from the property entrance. We found this to be a fair trade for the quality of the property and lack of city noise.

When we go back to Italy, we will stay here again. We wouldn't even consider another location in Firenze.

“I very beautiful and romantic place to Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2009

We stayed here for 3 nights and had a fantastic time. The hotel was beautiful and in a lovely setting with wonderful views. The hotel staff were very accommodating, and the breakfast was lovely.
It was a a 20 minute walk into Florence and the walk is well worth doing as its very picturesque.
