Highly recommend this property!
We had a great experience at Relais Pian D'ercole. They were professional, accomodative, and made our short stay very memorable. We had a late check - in and forgot our converters. Rebecca was kind enough to check us in and lend us two of her adapters. Second, we were starving from a long drive and though it was beyond their restaurant's hours, they happily served us one of our best Italian dinners on our trip. Raymundo's sophisticated yet friendly demeanor along with his high level of hospitality and service makes this special property a must stay!

Nice hotel and a good base for visiting Tuscany.
Nice hotel, room was ok but our tv wouldn't work which isn't the end of the world but it would have been better if it had. Breakfast was basic to say the least. One cup of coffee only, and a poor selection of pastries and bread rolls. Not even any cheese or ham. I've been to Italy a lot and that was poor in comparison. The swimming pool was fantastic. There is an on site restaurant but we didn't use it for evening meals as we went out.

Faultless Hotel
The hotel was amazing, easy to get to from Pisa Airport (via train), beautiful location and really friendly and helpful staff. It was about a 15 walk from the local train station (Rufina) which made it great base for exploring Tuscany, we traveled to Florence frequently (30min train journey and €3.30) and also to Pisa and Sienna. The hotel itself was a beautiful building, the rooms were kept immaculate and were very comfortable, The pool was a good size and surrounded by wonderful views. The grounds are beautiful and filled with flowers, fountains and plenty of shady spaces to sit and relax. The staff were all very accommodating and welcoming. The breakfast is also lovely.

Spectacular hotel
Never been to Italy before, so we were not sure what to expect but pleasantly surprised not only by the beautiful scenery around the hotel but from the first moment we walked into the hotel reception we were made very welcome, staff were very pleasant, owners were very nice and the accomidation was very comfortable and well laid out, nothing seemed to be any trouble weather it was directions or trying to understand the finer points of the language, we only ate in the restaurant on our last night this was probably a mistake as the food was put of this world thank you very much for a lovely stay hope to return very soon

A bit out of the way, but that was kind of the poi
The hotel is situated about 2 KM outside of the town of Rufina. The address of the hotel led me to believe it was in Pontassieve, the next town down the road about 10KM, so, when planning your train stop, get off at Rufina. We walked to the hotel from the train station, but it is a good distance, especially when you have baggage and don't know where you are going. Unfortunately, the girls at the front desk who answered the phone could not speak enough English to give us directiosn so we wandered around for a while, getting broken English instructions along the way until we finally found the Hotel. The check in was pretty easy and fast and the room was comfortale and clean. I never really figured out the A/C, so I'm not sure if it was broken or just my inability to work it properly. I never ate at the restaurant except for breakfast but that was very good. They had a party the night we arrived so the restaurant wasn't open but the food they served at the party was quite good. Overall, we enjoyed out stay there and would probably do it again.

Quiet hotel set in the Tuscan countryside
This is a lovely hotel set in the beautiful Tuscan countryside and about 30 mins by car from Florence. There is a small town of Rufina is just down the road and has a train station, shops and restaurants. We stayed here in September so it was very quiet and so is ideally suited to those who desire peace and quiet. The grounds are well maintained with wonderful views of the countryside from the room and the staff are very friendly. The room was of a reasonable standard with a bonus of fridge. We also had some very nice meals in the hotel restraunt. Perhaps the only negative is that the air conditioning in our room did not function very effectively and so we were forced to open the window at night. This meant that the room filled with insects and we were covered in bites for much of our stay. We did ask for it to be turned down but it made no difference and we didn't press the matter further.

06/ 2012 stay at Pian D'Ercole
I have nothing but praise for this hotel and its staff.If its a quiet and relaxing stay or a base for touring (transport required), the Pian d'Ercole is recommended. Due to documentation error we had to cancel the car hire option and arrived by public transport (Rail) to Rufina. The hotel transport collected us and conveyed us to the resort, and for our away day trips arranged transport to and from the hotel and rail station. The rooms were as described in the brochure and cleaned daily. The restaurant served excellent meals and wines and was served by attentive and friendly staff. The location and surrounding countryside was pleasing to the eye and photogenic. Daily use was made of the swimming pool, which was also available to non residents which made it busy on the Sunday. If its clubs, discos bars and noisy traffic you're after, this is not the place for you. We stayed at this hotel for seven nights, and found it to be totally relaxing and look forward to a return visit (with car hire).

Provided a good option for visitng Florence with a car - free parking, with a train station within walking distance, allowing a 30 minute trip into Florence. Comfortable room. Unfortunately the chef was away sick for the three days we were there, so the restaurant was not available, and not many good reataurant options within a 20 minute drive.

Tuscany experience!!!!
Wonderful place, the only warning is the how to get there if you're driving and not from the area and don't have a very good GPS. We were lucky to find a wonderful lady in the near town of Rufina, that literally took us al the way there! We followed her car almost to the hotel, if wasn't for her I really don't know. Afterwards the location was exactly what we hopped for in Tuscany, so enchanting... we loved... Patricia & Barry from Victoria BC, Canada

Loved It!!!
We enjoyed the intimate environment of this unique hotel as well as the beautiful grounds it is situated in. The area is absolutely gorgeous and we enjoyed the wine vineyards. The Pool was perfect and we enjoyed it all to ourselves because the hotel was rather quiet. Rooms are comfortable and full of character. The owner of the hotel even drove us to the train station the day we left, since it was raining (for 5 Euros-which were the best 5 Euros I have ever spent) The Al a carte pasta at the hotels restaurant was delicious and affordable. We loved drinking a bottle of their own wine with dinner!! This hotel is really a hidden charm that is worth seeing

Would recommend
My one piece of advice would be to take a different route to the hotel than we did. Arriving in a thunderstorm on a Sunday night in the dark, we followed the sat nav. Which took us up a tiny Italian moutain road, an uncomfortable experience. If you stay on the SS67 it takes you into Rufina and you can find the hotel from there fairly easily - it's signposted from the town centre. There isn't much to Rufina itself that we found, so went hungry for the first night as we didn't fancy the restaurant. Overall, we had a lovely stay - the staff were helpful and friendly whenever we needed them to be, and it really was only half an hour into Florence.

Nice area shame we chose the wrong hotel
Arrived late to what was meant to be the best of our hotels we had booked across Italy to relax in. Pool was freezing, dirty and unkept. Air-con was not working so we had to have window open which allowed mosquito's in to the room. Unfriendly staff who had our money already and did not pay attention to our needs was hard work even to borrow a tea spoon. Maybe the true reason behind all this was that they were hosting a wedding on the saturday night which went on into the early hours and as the guests were all staying in rooms around us there was a lot of noise.

Hotel OK but not for meals
I really enjoyed the hotel, the pool and room was very good. The room has the aircon pipes built into the walls and ceiling so you do not get any noise. Less impressed with the catering breakfast is OK but you get exactly the same things each day. We never ate at hotel in the evening. The resturant was always empty and there were much better places nearby. Shame really with a bit of passion with the food this could be a 1st class place to stay

Nice hotel but for the food and the air conditioning
Pian D'Ercole Resort is a pleasant enough hotel in a good, quiet location not far from Florence and with the added benefit of a good pool. The staff are reasonably pleasant but not particularly friendly or welcoming. The food was sub-standard and even the locals do not eat there. This is a shame because they have a lovely courtyard and they could attract a lot of customers if the chef was better. The breakfast looked great and was beautifully laid out but, again, the quality of the food was poor. The rooms were quite nice, clean and of adequate size. They are equipped with the latest air conditioning in the walls and ceilings which meant total silence and we thought was a great idea. However, we had two rooms and one remained cool at night and the other didn't. I didn't sleep very well because it was too hot and when I tried to explain this to the manager he told me I was wrong and that it did work. We spoke to other residents and they had similar problems with the air conditioning. So overall quite a nice hotel but I wouldn't go back.

Wonderful rural setting close to Florence
My family spent four nights at this hotel. We day tripped to Florence, Pisa, Lucca, etc, all easy drives. (A car is necessary to make the most of this location.) The hotel was lovely, and the restaurant very good as well. The rooms were immaculate, and we enjoyed the beautiful Tuscan country side. There are many nearby towns, restaurants, etc. to make the area intersting. We recommend this hotel highly; it was family friendly, but also quiet and peaceful for a couple's getaway.

Schönes kleines Hotel inmitten von Wein und Oliven
Das Hotel ist in typisch toskanischem Stil gebaut. Es hat einen recht großen Park mit Pool, der allerdings (Ende Oktober) geschlossen war. Das Hotel ist eingebettet in eine zauberhafte Gebirgslandschaft. Die Berge haben fast Voralpen-Charakter. An den Hängen sind Weinberge und Olivenhaine. Die Lage: absolut ruhig, allerdings gut 20 km bis Florenz. Für diese Strecke braucht man eine gute halbe Stunde. Das Haus ist sehr sauber, hat große Zimmer und sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Leider war die Heizung ausgestellt, so dass Zimmer und Bad abends und nachts recht kühl waren.

A real tuscan experience
We stayed 7 days in February at the hotel and enjoyed the wine region and the wonderful landscape of the country side. The resort is located quite near to Florence and offers all modern facilities. Our room was very comfortable, decorated in tuscan style and was also very clean. Many tourist maps were available at the reception.
