RIFUGIO LA FORESTA

The Hotel Rifugio La Foresta is located at 1,000 meters above sea level, in an exclusive position, within the Vallombrosa Nature Reserve, facing the homonymous abbey and only 30 km from Florence. Built in the 17th century as a guesthouse for the ancient Vallombrosa abbey, it is now a completely renovated accommodation facility, with a bar and restaurant also open to non-guests. It has 60 rooms, some finely furnished by local artisans, while others are more straightforward and essential; however, all ensure the highest level of comfort.

The highlight of the hotel is its spacious common areas, perfect for relaxation or smart working.

The conference room can accommodate up to 60 people in theater style, making it ideal for business meetings, retreats, and team building activities. The offering is complemented by the bar and restaurant service, featuring typical dishes from the local cuisine. The large restaurant hall, overlooking the meadow of Vallombrosa, is the ideal location for banquets, ceremonies, and business dinners. 

It serves as an ideal starting point for outdoor enthusiasts, whether for trekking or e-biking, for excursions in the forest, along the ridge of Monte Secchieta, and beyond. It also serves as a stopping point along the routes of important pilgrimages such as the "Via di Francesco," the "Cammino di Dante," and the "Via Ghibellina." 

Open all year round
