We stayed at this magnificent place for our brief stay in Tuscany. Residence Fiesole far exceeded our expectations. Tommaso greeted us exceptionally well even before we arrived, sending us helpful information about getting to Fiesole and to the residence (it's a very old village so the roads are winding and forked). Upon arrival, Tommaso gave us so many helpful tips about both Fiesole and Florence, and also made great restaurant suggestions (he was right about all of them!). The 7 Fiesole bus made it easy to get in and out of Florence, but there was one day when we felt like taking it easy, so we hopped to the grocery store just 3 minutes away, grabbed some food, and ate on the balcony for each meal, enjoying the incredible view of the Tuscan countryside, while relaxing in our peaceful and breezy room the rest of the time. (On that note, some Residence Fiesole rooms are at ground level with a big patio, and some are on the second floor with a balcony. Either way, great views.) Fiesole itself is quite an interesting village to explore. There are Etruscan ruins near the village centre, a quirky museum (which wasn't open when we were there), plenty of restaurants (we loved La Reggia Degli Etrusche), and I found lovely linen shirts one of the boutiques. I appreciated the calm away from the city's bustle (because Florence moves very quickly), but Tommaso and the entire team at Residence Fiesole also made things incredibly easy for us. I recommend staying at Residence Fiesole *instead* of anywhere in Florence. You won't be disappointed.
