In Montevarchi you can find the most home-like place, I was very lucky to meet the owner's family, they are very hearty. During the time I stayed here, everything was very comfortable, the room was very cozy, with a private bathroom, if you are a tourist I highly recommend you to stay here because it is very close to the train station and you can reach Firenze, Arezzo or even Rome very easily.

The Great B&B in the town

My husband and I stayed at La Contonella with Mrs. Luciana for 3 months. Both her and Elena were so wonderful and hospitable. They did everything to make sure our stay was comfortable. The rooms are and bathrooms big are big and very clean. The kitchen has all the necessities for long term stays. The location is inside the old city walls and walking distance to many restaurants and shop. The Thursday markets are wonderful. We can’t wait to be back! 

Thank you Elena and Mrs. Luciana for such an incredible experience and memory.

Lovely Host and Wonderful Accommodations

We stayed at La Cantonella from March - June this year and used as a hub to explore Tuscany, and Italy more broadly.  Mrs. Luciana and the entire Romei family were such magnificent hosts.  There are so many things about our time in Italy that we'll remember, but sitting at the dining table with Mrs. Luciana will be counted among our favorite memories.  Montevarchi is a small medieval town, 30 miles away from Florence.  Cantonella is a beautiful location.  Our accommodations were extremely well kept; the bathroom was large and well equipped, our bed and bedroom was comfortable and had more than adequate storage for our three month stay.  In reading certain reviews below, I would encourage people who want a local and thoughtful experience to stay at Cantonella.  If you're looking for a Ritz Carlton in small town Tuscany, you might want to get your head checked.  Highly recommend this B&B, and we certainly hope we'll be back to see the whole Romei family! 

Grazie Mille!

The Most Wonderful Stay

My husband and I stayed at La Cantonella for a month summer 2015 - my daugther and her friend for some days. The Romei-family gave us a fantastic service during our stay. We can recommend this B&B

Close to the city center of Montevarchi

I stayed there with a friend for 4 nights.
The b&B is 10 minutes walk from the train station, the house is ok with very steep stairs.

The room quite small and do not have any other facilities like kettle for water or tea, tv, and no toiletries. Everytime when we want some tea, we have to go downstair to the kitchdn and boil water by ourselves, which is very inconvenient.And most of the B & B would provide simple toiletries like shampoo, shower gel, etc,( I even have to look for towels in my room), which is very basic thing to provided.

The "self-service" breakfast is very poor, with some yogurt, cereal and cornflaks, and coffee machine. It is very disapointing! While many B&B i tried in Italy, they always provide decent breaKfast or cooked breakfast and is not "self-service" Mind you, you have to wash your bowl and spoon after you used it. This is NOT a hostel!!! Not even some basic service!

It would be better if the staff or owner can stay in the house, for better security and for instant enquiry. After 9pm, there are many men wandering around the area, im not a local as I don't feel safe.

This B& B is definitely overpriced and the website said is 35 to 60 euro, it is very fluctuate. For I paid 50 euro per night, stay for 4 nights, with this location and this level of service, it is really Not worth it. I am sure you can find nicer B&B and hotel in the same area with similiar price, but definitely better room , better service with more basic facilities and non-self-service breakfast!

I definitely won't recommend this B& B, is not worth for money and you can get better with this price!

Not Worth the Money!

I went to Italy for all of August with the goal of creating my own cycling training camp. I chose to live in Montevarchi because it’s located centrally in the Tuscany area and it is small enough so that I don’t have to cope with city traffic before reaching the beautiful nature on my bike. I also dislike the artificial disconnect from the local culture that goes along with staying at a typical hotel as a traveller.

So I was searching for a casual place to live at for a full month. Of course I was very very skeptical when deciding, because committing to live at a place you don’t know in a town you don’t know for a month is a pretty high risk.

The place looked nice, but I was still unsure if it would be suitable for me to work at. Before booking, I asked them to run a speedtest on their internet connection. They have a pretty stable 7mbit line with low latency to Germany.

Even before I had booked, they were already very helpful and kind in helping me plan my bike rental. So I decided to take the risk and (without knowing them or their place) booked the B&B La Cantonella for a full month. In retrospect, I couldn’t be happier :) Everyone of that I met of their family was cheerful and easy to get along with. When I arrived in Italy and told Elena that I like classical music, she helped me get a calendar of all the public concerts in the area :)

Throughout the month, Elena and Luciana would sometimes tell me about events that they heard about. It is thanks to them, that I was able to immerse myself in the local culture and seeing some of the coolest parts about mediterranean culture :)

For example, they told me about the famous Siena horse race. It was an amazing experience and I am lucky that I could sneak in and participate. Thank you again Luciana for explaining to me how to participate in the proceedings and get inside the “dogs stand” to have a good view of the race :)

The overall style of the B&B is comparable to a shared student apartment. I met interesting other travelers during shared breakfast or cooking in the B&B’s kitchen. If you expect an all-inclusive five-star hotel experience, you’ll be disappointed. But if you want a more personal experience, this is a great place. Throughout my stay I always tried to make as less work as possible for them because everyone was always so nice, charming and helpful towards me.

My time in Italy was relaxing, fun and very productive work-wise. I'll be busy for a few months to finish up all the great projects I devised in Italy. I'm already looking forward to going back to Italy around April next year.

Amazing for biking through Tuscany

Location is really good. Only 5-10 mins to train station. 1 min to supermarket. 
Typical italian house with pretty decoration.Bedroom is big and clean. 
House owner is very helpful and nice.
Price is reasonable.
Definitely recommand others to stay at this B & B.
