La Bandita Townhouse

We live in Florence and the weather was gorgeous and the kids were with friends so we went on a last minute countryside get away. I hesitated on booking La Bandita because it was a Marriott and I didn't want something corporate in the middle of Tuscany BUT this couldn't be further from the feel. I think it's still somewhat privately owned and operated by a cool American in the music biz and his wife or partner and its a minimalistic chic retreat with great staff, a wonderful trendy restaurant, a beautiful little garden and a great chill out lounge on first floor. Room was big and simple but gorgeous, great big bathroom and wonderful tea/coffee/drinks, smart TV, strong wifi, good design magazines etc. Definitely going back!!

The only thing that would stop me giving it a 10/10 is that I like a little exercise room in all of my hotels but I get that there simply isn't space in small townhouses in the middle of ancient tuscan villages !!

Beautiful place, great food and really friendly helpful staff. Loved it

Breakfast

Modern comfort inside a historic building. Everything works perfectly from plumbing to shutters.

The stairs are a tad unforgiving if you are not a fully able person. But given the structure of the building I don’t see how you could change that. Not an issue for me but might be for some.
