Excellent location if you arrive by train, just a short walk from the train station. Front desk service/concierge staff was very helpful in providing information and arranging reservations with other activities. Leather market is just out the door. American style buffet breakfast is a great way to start the day. Facilities are a little dated but completely adequate.

Not much to say except that I would highly recommend this hotel and would probably try and stay here again if (or when!) I return to Florence. The room we stayed in won't blow you away but it was clean and comfortable and offered an excellent view onto the busy streets below. Noise is practically non nonexistent when the double... More

Florence is not that big so any location in the center will probably be fine for tourists, but this hotel is truly ideally locateds, three minutes from the train and bus stations and three minutes from the cathedral. I did not ask for a specific room, but got a very nice one overlooking a square near the chapel d'Medici (not... More

Very friendly, helpful Reception, always smiling! Raphaella was particularly helpful with finding a room for me a day ahead of my reservation, then helping me to change room to get away from a chronic snorer (not hotel's fault!)!! No questions asked, no hassle, always a smile. Great sleep thereafter. Also very helpful with planning a day away from the buzz... More

We stayed for 2 days in late September 2012. We were really pleased with our choice of hotel. Wonderful building, very spacious room, nice staff, good breakfast and ideal location. Very good value for money.

My daughter and I arrived in Florence by train without any hotel reservations. We walked down from the train station and saw this hotel and decided to book a room here. Andrea could not have been more pleasant and accommodating. The hotel was within walking distance of all you wanted to see in Florence. The market and duomo were basically... More

Strategically located, across the street the Medicee Chapel, 100 m from the Duomo, 10 minutes pleasant walk from the Piazza Segnoria with the Plazzo Vecchio the Uffizzi and the Ponte Vecchio and 5 minues from the Academia, Brilliant location to explore Florence. This is a 3 star hotel and it shows. The lobby is nice. The room was large enough... More

On a positive note, the hotel is in a great location, just a short wak from the train station and right in the middle of the markets beside the Duomo. Easy to find. On a really positive note, Tim at the front desk was wonderful. Extremely helpful and only to pleased to help with questions, bookings and advice on where... More

This spring I spent a few days in Florence, attending a meeting, but having some time to relax, too. I remebered the name of this hotel from a night I spent there many years ago, and having found a good offer in internet, I decided to give it a new try. This turned out to be a good choice. The...
