Hotel information

The hotel is located between Signa and Artimino, on the top of one of the so characteristic, Tuscan hills facing the Arno valley. From the hotel, from almost all our rooms and especially from our big roof terrace crowning the hotel, one has a breathtaking view of the valley. Our reception, breakfast room and bar are located on the top, where huge windows facing in all directions welcome in the morning sun when it rises above the hills and they give our guests the possibility to see the entire valley underneath, the surrounding hills with cypresses and pines, Poggio alla Malva with its white and yellow houses gathered close together and the bell tower of the Santo Stefano church.
Local wine, grappa, Vin Santo and home made marmellade (made by "Il Portico", Poggio alla Malva) are on sale at our front desk.

The Arno river is slowly floating through the valley underneath, finding its way towards the Tirrhenian Sea.
The hotel has just recently been completed, trying to maintain traditional, Florentine colours and material, such as stone for doorsteps and stairs and chestnut beams for the ceiling.

Brand new, efficient and silent air condition system, designed by Giugiaro.

Our bar/breakfast room has recently been equipped with a widescreen TV LCD HD.

Mountain bikes for rent.

The hotel disposes of a beautiful apartment (approx. 65mq) for 4-5 persons too, complete with combined living room/kitchen, a big bedroom, bathroom with bathtub and with the possibility to sit outside.

Area information

The small, medieval village of Poggio alla Malva, to whom we have dedicated the name of our hotel "Villa La Malva", has beautiful surroundings, such as vineyards, olive groves and woods of pines and cypresses. Small roads that wind along the Arno river and then continue up the hills, invite to take long walks or to go for a ride in bicycle. From the hill behind the hotel, one can admire the magnificent dome of the cathedral made by Brunelleschi, located in the close by Florence.
The Villa La Malva offers its clients the unique possibility to enjoy all that the Tuscan countryside offers, away from the chaos in the town centre, and yet easily reach, just in a few minutes by car or train, some of the most beautiful cities in Italy, Florence but also Pisa, Lucca, Siena etc.
