Description

The B&B I Due Portali is located in the historic center of Bibbiena and is an apartment in a 15th-century palace. It is the ideal place for families, groups of friends, and even for a business trip.

The characteristics of the B&B include the historical period of the apartment, the attention to detail in the furnishings, and the beautiful copies of famous paintings found throughout the B&B.

The apartment is located on the first floor and is carefully furnished with attention to detail. It consists of 3 rooms with private bathrooms.

As in all historic centers, access to the apartment is via stairs with typical characteristics of the period, so they are slightly inclined. Each room is complete with linens and a set of towels.

The B&B offers a common space with a spacious lounge for self-service breakfast.

Upon request, it is possible to reserve the Blue room together with the kitchen, living room, and bathroom, creating a mini-apartment within the B&B.

Hey from samanta b

My interest in recovery, restoration, cooking, and the pleasure of experiencing different realities from where I live has led me to embark on this new adventure with you.

I adore the historic center of Bibbiena with its characteristic villages and squares where you can still imagine and savor the life of its artisans and nobles who lived there in the 1300s.

Today, you can relive all of this through the fascinating historical reenactment of the Legend of Mea contested by the noble Tarlati.

It is possible to attend the historical reenactment during the carnival period.

What guests say

Reviews highlight the central location of the property, making it ideal for exploring Bibbiena and the surrounding area. Guests praise the cleanliness and attention to detail in the rooms, often set in a tastefully renovated historic building. The hosts, especially Samanta, are repeatedly commended for their kindness and availability. The value for money is considered excellent. Breakfast, typically homemade, is well received, though some guests would appreciate more variety. Parking can be challenging due to the central position.

Based on guest reviews. AI-generated.

The room is clean and equipped with everything that may be needed. The structure is in the city center, close to every point of interest and also logistically close to one of the largest parking lots. The price is more than honest. If I had to say what could be improved, it would be the breakfast offering, but it remains an extremely positive review overall. I recommend it.

Very welcoming structure in a 15th-century palace masterfully restored, a pride (rightly) of the owners, a very kind and very friendly couple. We will gladly return. We recommend it to everyone.

For those who love art and simplicity, a perfect place. Without perfection, without style or fashion, but as woman and man have created. Congratulations to Samanta, the dad, and the husband for this work.

Samanta's B&B is located in the historic center inside a period building. If you are a cyclist, there is no garage to store your bicycles, but by climbing a flight of stairs, you can bring them into your room. We did not have breakfast, but Samanta still offered us a basket with a mini breakfast. The rooms are pleasant, tastefully furnished in line with the style of the building. There is also a kitchen room adjacent to the bedrooms where you can have lunch socializing with other possible guests, but at the time of my stay, it was not used due to Covid restrictions. The host was very helpful and courteous.

The structure is located in a historic building in the center of Bibbiena and the room we stayed in (the blue room) is actually a beautiful two-room apartment with a fully equipped kitchen. Great attention to detail, with paintings and furniture creating a very atmospheric setting. Excellent location, apart from the difficulty of finding parking. Extremely kind managers and extremely well-kept in terms of cleanliness and hygiene.

Cozy and well-kept B&B, located in a stunning village of 'our' Tuscany. Every room is carefully designed to the smallest detail, and the passion of the landlady is evident in the small attentions that make the difference. A regenerative stop with an ancient flavor, I recommend it!

We are a Cultural Association and we chose this B&B I Due Portali for our teachers who had to carry out a project at the middle school of Bibbiena. Really nice, comfortable apartment and above all the availability and courtesy of Samanta was impeccable. We will definitely come back.

Excellent B&B located in a renovated 15th-century house. Beautiful atmosphere created thanks to very well-kept furnishings. The breakfast is excellent and plentiful with delicious homemade cakes. In the common room, you can enjoy excellent coffee at any time, as well as ginseng, decaffeinated, and tea. The only flaw in the room is the small sink and no hook but spacious shower.

The accommodation has 3 rooms, each of a different color, and a common area for breakfast. Due to work needs, I booked a few hours before. Nevertheless, Mrs. Samanta, a very friendly person, made me find a cake she made in the room. It was still warm. The only downside is the not easy parking as the structure is in the city center. If I happen to be in the area again, I will definitely return.

The B&B is located in a central position in Bibbiena, the manager is very kind, the style of furniture is shabby. Ideal as a base for exploring the Casentino Natural Park.

The Two Portals is a splendid B&B, in a tastefully renovated historic house by Samanta located in the center of Bibbiena. Cleanliness, kindness, availability, and a super breakfast with delicious homemade pies distinguish this very new and highly recommended facility!
