Jon and Victoria were two amazing teachers and chefs. We all got to work with both of our hands. Freshly made pasta was much better than store bought! 10/10 , would recommend to anyone coming to Florence.

Be right on time, because they won't let you in early and you'll have to wait on the side of the road. The cooking experience was fun, the chef spoke English with an Italian accent. We got to enjoy pizza with generous toppings we added ourselves, gelato, and unlimited wine.

Noemí was our instructor and she did a fantastic job. The class was fun and relaxed, and the food was really good but it felt like a long wait to eat since we got up very early to go to the market and cooked four courses before we got to eat anything. One piece of constructive criticism would be to have a sign at the meet up spot for people to know where to find you. We had to ask around before finding the correct group.

Great 4.0
The hotel is generally good, with excellent cleanliness. It was comfortable enough for a three-night stay. The room has a kettle and water glasses. The bathroom amenities are similar to those found in typical European hotels, with the same bottle used for shampoo and body wash. The most commendable thing is the showerhead's super strong water pressure, which is very effective, and the hot water doesn't require any waiting! The hotel is a convenient 5-10 minute walk from the central station. Be careful when going in and out of the station area at night. You need a key card to enter and exit the hotel at night, so the security is also okay!

Fantastic 5.0
This isn't your typical European accommodation, but a hotel with a very hip vibe. At first, I thought the location was ambiguous, but you can take the tram from Florence Station to right in front of the hotel, and especially, bus number 12 goes directly to Piazzale Michelangelo! As for the Duomo or Ponte Vecchio, you can cover Florence's tourist attractions on foot anyway. Other than that, the facilities and services were all excellent! In particular, the rooftop view offers a view that makes the price worthwhile. I recommend it to young couples or honeymooners.

I had a very pleasant stay thanks to Julia-R, a female employee who was consistently helpful and smiling. The free parking at the hotel was also great, and the room condition was good, as was the breakfast.

An unforgettable Tuscany tour! The landscapes were breathtaking, the itinerary was perfectly paced, and every stop felt special. Huge thanks to our guide Constantino—knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about Tuscany. He made the experience even more memorable with great stories and thoughtful attention to the group. Highly recommended!
