Overview

 
Set in the elegant spa town of Montecatini Terme, family-run Hotel Da Vinci blends classic Tuscan charm with contemporary comfort. Think leafy gardens, a rooftop pool shared with its sister property, and warm Biondi-family hospitality that makes the hotel feel like a true Italian home-from-home. With car hire included and the resort centre on your doorstep, it’s perfectly positioned for days spent between thermal baths, medieval hill towns and Chianti vineyards.

From the hotel’s rooftop pool you can gaze over terracotta rooftops to Montecatini Alto’s hilltop silhouette – a classic Tuscan panorama. Inside, marble floors, soft lighting and curated artworks create an elegant but unpretentious feel, while bright, cosy rooms are made for restful nights after exploring Lucca, Florence or the nearby thermal spas. For couples or friends seeking Tuscany’s charm with minimal faff, Hotel Da Vinci delivers beautifully. You’re in the heart of Montecatini Terme with car hire included, so days can pivot from spa sessions at Terme Tettuccio to drives out through cypress-lined lanes to Lucca, Florence or Chianti.

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


There’s no beach here – this is spa-town Tuscany, not the coast – but you do have access to a welcoming rooftop outdoor freshwater pool just a short stroll (around 50m) from the hotel, shared with the sister property.

A dedicated sunbathing area with sunbeds lets you soak up that Tuscan sunshine between excursions, and pool towels are available for a small local charge. Pool opening dates and facilities can vary by season, typically operating from spring through to autumn.

Spa, sports & wellness


Hotel Da Vinci focuses on relaxed Tuscan living rather than resort-style activities. Spend time reading in the tree-lined garden, planning road trips with a glass of local wine, or strolling to Montecatini’s thermal baths for a proper spa session.

On site you’ll find:
• Leafy garden area for quiet relaxation
• Lounge and bar areas for evening drinks
• Access to Montecatini’s spa complexes (off-site, chargeable)

The town itself provides plenty of gentle walking, people-watching terraces, boutiques and traditional trattorie.
