Villa Casagrande Resort e Spa

A spectacular two days at this historic Villa. We had a fantastic wine tasting and tour as well as the cooking class-Mani Pasta and E bike tour. Even with the E bike it was difficult but awesome. Highly recommend staying here in a Villa dating back to the Middle Ages. Very helpful staff and fascinating history.

Villa Casagrande is a fantastic property. I discovered it in December of 2023 and I had to return. Our trip this time was part of a group tour and we then my husband and I extended our stay an additional week. I planned to be there during Easter to see the Flag Performance and period costumes. Remarkable experience.

Stayed one night in an apartment. Very ols, in dire need of renovation, mattress and base very old bending in the middle, pillow bad quality, not comfortable. Breakfast very average, expected more in such historical beautiful place. Swimming pool very nice.

Xcellent location to tour Chianti, Azerro and Lorro Cuifenna, abd only a short train ride to Florence so you can come.back late amd not drive. Charming hotel. Beautiful rooms. Great food.. Best if all, excellent and friendly and knowlesgeable staff. Fabulous.

The hotel in a centuries old villa was lovely. Of course this is not your typical hotel stay, but some of the quirks of staying in an old building were what made it so special. Above all, the staff we encountered were fantastic. Kind and welcoming and helpful whenever we needed them. The onsite restaurant was delicious, we ate two dinners there during our stay. Breakfast buffet in the morning was fine but it did not change much at all day to day so got a little monotonous. However I do understand that breakfast isn’t really a main meal in Italy so we were just grateful for what was offered to get us going in the morning. We took part in a pizza making/cooking class and wine tasting and tour during our stay led by the wonderful Julia. These were highlights and we can’t wait to recreate some of the recipes. Location so close to the piazza in Figline Valdarno and just minutes from the train station were great. Similarly we were able to drive easily into the heart of Chianti to explore its lovely towns and wineries. The shower in our room was quite small which made it a little difficult for my husband to maneuver but this is minor. Also, we had a bit of trouble adjusting the temperature in our room between the older radiator and the wall AC unit, but again, not a dealbreaker. Overall we very much enjoyed our stay and would return/recommend.

On a recommendation of my Italian cousin, we chose Hotel Villa Casagrande to stay the night before my husband's hospital pre-operation tests. The interior ambiance provided a perfect calming experience - just what we needed. The hotel is so lovely. Staff is very helpful and professional. The restaurant service was exceptional, as well, and dinner was excellent. We will return to experience the spa services!
