The Location at Il Salviatino Firenze

"Located a 20-minute drive northwest from the Uffizi and historic central Florence, midway between Fiesole and the city, but with views of the Duomo from a distance, this is a classically-proportioned patrician villa with a pool, eclectically appointed common areas and guest rooms, and a very good restaurant"

"This updated 15th-century villa, located on top of a hill just two miles north of Florence, offers five-pearl luxury in a stunning setting"

"Although Il Salviatino has a Fiesole address—the neighborhood set along the hillside summer retreat of great Florentine families come and gone—this 45-room grand villa is actually located on the slope of the town’s famous hill (not the most atmospheric part)"

"Il Salviatino is perfectly located so that you can dip in and out of the hustle and bustle of central Florence, and retreat back to the mansion for sanctuary"

"Its artwork spans several hundred years—the 19th-century fresco, located in the Affresco Suite, deserves to be in a museum—and the oversized leather chesterfields and carved wooden chairs and bookshelves seem to have been lifted from private libraries and clubs over the last 150 years"
