Donatella's home is as wonderful as others have indicated! She is a lovely and gentle person who is more than willing to help you with any need you have. We stayed in the Sage room and the loft both of which were comfortable and exceptionally clean! Donatella and her husband Nicolo were delightful and had wonderful recommendations for dinner! Do...

Donatella's stylish home was a haven of peace after a long day walking around Florence. The room was so comfortable and immaculate in every way. Donatella was extremely helpful in advising restaurants, buses, booking tickets and where to visit. I would recommend staying here without hestitation, and should we return to Florence, I would definately book again.

My partner and I had the distinct pleasure of staying here for 6 nights in April 2012. The house is artistically appointed. The breakfasts were a delight. And, Donatella, our host, should be considered a Florentine ambassador. Her knowledge of Florence (restaurants, art, history, and off-the-map places), her talents in the kitchen (home-made crepes, marmalades, breads, tortes) and her genuinely... More

My fiance and I just spent three nights in Florence at the B&B Monte Oliveto and really loved it. Donatella was just lovely and so helpful, and her restaurant recommendations were spot on. We went for my 30th birthday and my colleagues in London recruited her to arrange a surprise bottle of champagne and some flowers for me, which was... More

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights this March and enjoyed every minute of our visit. Donatella was so sweet and gave us amazing recommendations for day trips, restaurants, and sites to see other than the major ones. Her breakfast was extremely tasty, too! I had emailed Donatella before traveling to Italy to get information on travel and... More

It was really nice to stay in this calm and class B&B. It is perfect as clean, quiet, furnished with taste. A bit of Chianti in the middle of Florence. Donatella is very helpful and kind and the biological breakfast excellent! I recommend it +++++

Florence is a very noisy, crowded city with lots of tourists (imagine!). But this B&B is in a very quiet neighborhood -- it backs up onto a hill with no houses behind it, and the street is quiet as well. We had no trouble at all walking to all of the galleries in Florence. The hostess is extremely friendly and... More

Dear Donatella, It is with pleasure that I recommend your beautiful B&B in Florence. The location is perfect. Close to touristic atractions, public transportation, and restaurants in the area, and not far from the Florence musea in the city center. I could walk any place in Florence from there. Your service and care was outstanding. Especialy because I have coeliakie.... More

Great accommodation option in Oltrarno, which is not touristy but at the same time it is not far from the city centre (20min walk to Piazza Signoria / Galleria degli Uffizzi). Also, great restaurants and trattorias are located on this side of the Arno river. Donatella, Marta and Nicolo are fantastic hosts and give you invaluable advice to make the... More

We stayed with a large family at Monte Oliveto and our stay was wonderful. Donatella and Nicolo were excellent hosts and were very helpful with local restaurant recommendations, sightseeing, and directions around Florence. The house was lovely and we enjoyed our stay.
