Matkat – Cascina

Erinomainen hotelli hyvällä sijainnilla Santa Maria Novellan vieressä. Rautatieasemalle 150 metriä. Raitiotievaunulla pääsee hyvin, lipun hinta 1.70€. Takaisin lentokentälle mentiin taksilla, 35 euroa.

Loved this boutique property. Stayed five nights in the newer section, Le Noci, and would love to go back. The staff were all excellent, friendly and helpful. The pool was stunning. The room was large, comfy, and quiet. Breakfast was delicious and eating on the outside terrace was wonderful as the view was incredible. The only downside was the restaurant over at the older section. Would not recommend as the waitress was rude/pushy (made the evening uncomfortable) and the food was just okay. Would recommend going to nearby Radda or Gaiole instead. Highly recommend Il Papavero in Barbischio, a few minutes east of Gaiole. The dinner we had there was the best and a highlight of the trip.

Perfect location. In very well condition, probably restrored recently (?). The room small and there was very little storage space for clothes. The air in the room was not too fresh since the air condition was not on (they put in on only later in spring).
