Situated in Florence and within 60 metres of Accademia Gallery, Ricasoli Garden Relais has a garden, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi. The property is around 1.1 km from Sant'Ambrogio Market, 180 m from Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and Piazza del Duomo. The property is located in the San Marco - Santissima Annunziata district.

At the guest house, rooms are fitted with a wardrobe, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom.

One of the best places I have stayed in Italy! Both hosts were very lovely and they gave good recommendations for restaurants and even helped us to book each time. Room is spacious and clean! The area around the main tourist attraction can be noisy and packed but once you enter Garden Renascentia you feel like you stepped into a calm oasis and you recharge yourself for the next day. There are snacks in the room provided and free drinks every evening. Though no breakfast but there are plenty of breakfast places around the accommodation. I booked this place because of the good reviews and rating and they have lived up to the standard and reviews. They were also very prompt in responses over email on queries. Will definitely return to this gem in Firenze!

It was very central with lots of good cafes around, beautiful area and very close to a lot of main sites. Francesco and Leonardo were exceptional, so lovely and was recommending a lot of sites and areas to go see which was very helpful. Very attentive people, letting us in on local events that we would have completely missed if we weren’t told about it. We will definitely be coming back here if we are to stay in Florence.

    Fantastic apartment in the most central location while being quiet and peaceful. The decor is lovely, particularly with the historic painted frescos, it felt like staying frozen in time. The lift was handy, and amenities in the apartment were all good and as described. You could stay for a short or long stay here, it has everything you need. Lorenzo and his colleague were great hosts, and were flexible and helpful at check in and check out. I couldn't recommend it more highly. Just book it.

    The location is great. It's a two-minute walk to Statuto's Tram stop, or if you prefer a 20-minute walk to Florence's city centre. The apartment is modern. Great for a couple or a family of 4. Pietro is a great host. He was always available when we needed. High recommended.

    The property is situated in a very quiet part of Florence. If you like to walk, it is the perfect hostel for you as it is a good 20 minute walk from the centre. It has complete facilities for both work, leisure and long stay. It has a coworking space, a bar and pool, and locker storage/laundry facility. Best for backpackers, students, and people on a budget looking for a cheap accomodation.

    Great location for visiting the city centre. Our party of 7 adults (ages 21-68) had plenty of space and the bus service (albeit not very frequent in the evening) allowed us to do things together or separately as we wished. The villa, pool and grounds were wonderful. The kitchen was well equipped and our host was exceptionally kind in driving us to and from the supermarket after we arrived. Although the weather was very hot the villa was blissfully cool inside.

    A comfortable apartment in a great location close to all main attractions (and shopping!) but still away from the main tourist routes. Very quiet to sleep. Great communication from the host, multiple helpful advice and very clear instructions, eg if we can bring the car to the old town and where to park.
