Pensione Bencistà

Perched in the hills of Fiesole, this 14th‑century villa sits among Tuscan olive groves. It’s about 7 km from central Florence and a few minutes’ drive from Teatro Romano and the Cathedral of Fiesole. The pretty town center is within easy walking distance.

Around 40 individually decorated rooms, each styled with antiques and its own character. Rooms feature premium bedding, private bathrooms with bidets and hair dryers, desks and ceiling fans. The terrace delivers panoramic city views and olive‑grove mornings.

A full spa menu (massages, facials, body treatments), sauna, spa tub, solarium and steam bath keep things restorative. There’s a health club, table tennis and a library for downtime. Concierge services, babysitting (surcharge), free self‑parking and an airport shuttle (surcharge) add practical convenience.

Meeting room and 129 sq ft (12 m²) of conference space, plus a computer station, express check‑in/out and complimentary wireless internet to keep you connected.

On‑site restaurant serves Tuscan flavors with garden and alfresco options. A bar and terrace pour cocktails, wines and non‑alcoholic drinks with panoramic views. There’s also a coffee shop/café and limited room service; breakfasts highlight sweet and savory Tuscan products.
