Hotel Francia E Quirinale

I cannot fault this lovely hotel. Spotlessly clean, amazing comfortable bed, lovely selection at breakfast, friendliest staff and perfect location. Highly recommended if you would like a base to explore Tuscany - easy walking distance from the train station and lots of lovely bars and restaurants. Grazie for a wonderful stay xx

Muy agradable. Todo excelente, el personal tanto de recepción como de restaurante ofrecen muy buen servicio .

I spent a week at the Francia e Quirinale Hotel in Montecatini and let me tell you what a wonderful experience I had. It made my trip so special! Firstly, the location is ideal—a perfect base for daily trips to all the popular destinations in Tuscany, such as Florence, Pisa, Lucca, and Siena. What’s especially nice is being able to return each evening to the peaceful and relaxing environment of Montecatini, away from the busy tourist crowds. Train station and bus station are in walking distance with plenty of rides every hour. If you want a lazy day instead, the hotel also has a.pool! The town itself offers a surprising number of excellent restaurants, all in walking distance. You’ll get a true local experience. Try the steak! Be aware that you’ll be jailed if you ask anything cooked over medium rare. So choose wisely. Moreover there are quite a few lively bars for an aperitivo or a nightcap close by. The city is very quiet during the day but unexpectedly it turns quite buzzy at night, very fun! If you are looking for a night in, get spoiled by the staff and enjoy the stylish hotel lounge. The vibes are classic but modern, chic but cozy. Literally obsessed with the upholstery and the trimming of every piece of furniture! Food, drinks and service are top notch. From the huge continental breakfast, to the delicious meals prepared daily by the chef, to the cocktails made by the amazing Roberto. As far as my room, I booked a single with a balcony on a side street so it was super quiet, breezy and bright. All amenities were provided, including a Tv, a safe and a mini fridge, which was so convenient! I haven’t mentioned yet what truly made my stay unforgettable though and the main reason why I am writing this 10/10 review. THE STAFF AT FRANCIA E QUIRINALE! ALL members of the staff went the extra mile to take care of me. From the reception team ( so helpful and funny) to housekeeping team, (spotless venue) to the breakfast ladies (so so lovely!) to the gentlemen in charge of the restaurant and bar (first class service) Can’t say enough good things about them. Professional, attentive, kind but most importantly, genuine people. Including the trendiest and most hospitable mother and daughter duo: Anna Maria and Alessandra, still running the family hotel after many generations. Anna ❤️❤️ They all made me feel more like a guest in someone’s home rather than a guest in a hotel. So thank you to Giuseppe, Catia, Fabio, Viola, Roberto, Martina and all the rest of the wonderful people that took care of me. Forgive me if I forgot to mention some of you by name, you were such a big team! Kudos to you all for your great work! Can’t wait to be back. Love, Emma.

Stayed for several nights as part of a group. Exterior is very welcoming with plenty of seating and well maintained - cleaned every morning and all the plants watered etc. Reception and bar areas were very pleasant, well decorated and comfortable. Pool area also great. Dining room was very large - as a group we were allocated the same tables for breakfast and the times we were there for evening meal. My bedroom - allocated a single room on the 5th floor with a small balcony. Was pleasant enough and the bed was comfortable which is the main thing. Furniture was a bit dated though and talking to others, their rooms were much more spacious than mine. Shower wasn't good at all - water pressure was very bad and fluctuated regularly. Food - breakfast had a good selection of cereals, fruit, warm items, bread, meat, cheeses, fruit etc. Very satisfactory and tea / coffee served at the table. Evening meal - as we were a large group it was a set menu with limited choices. All adequate but more choice would have been good. Appreciate the hotel would have been working to a budget set by our tour operator though. Staff - all extremely pleasant and friendly from reception to the bar to the restaurant staff to the cleaning staff. Location - a great base in a lovely little town with numerous places to eat / drink / sit and watch the world go by. Very large park just at the top of the road. Overall, apart from the niggles with the room had a lovely relaxing time here and would happily stay again.

This property was, overall, really nice! The pool was wonderful, especially in the heat wave, and the free breakfast was a nice option to have. Staff was wonderful, and the location is very walkable. The biggest complaint is that the bed was hard as a rock! And the sheets were very starchy and stiff. We had to ask someone for a mattress topper, which they somehow remedied, but were a bit shocked.

If you are Menopausal and having hot flashes during a heatwave, I recommend going up the street to Grand Hotel Malta, which is what we had to do. The air conditioning was a fan. Not cooling at all. However, if I didn’t have hot flashes in a heatwave, this hotel is so charming and eclectic, with a beautiful pool and friendly staff.
