was only an overnight stay. The B & B is gorgeous, a peaceful and harmonious place to spend a pleasant stay in Florence. A sociable and friendly staff that offers one of the most delicious breakfasts I've ever tasted. If I could I would have prolonged the stay another two nights.

We stayed there 4 nights and enjoyed the stay very much. The B&B is very central but in a quiet road. Only 5 min walk from the railway station, 5 min to the market hall, about 10 to 15 min walk through pedestrian areas to the Duomo. Elisa was very friendly and helpful, giving us good guidance and recommendations. The... More

We booked this place by reviewing in Tripadvisor which you have to book directly with the bb. (I could find any channel/ website to book this bb.) Our stay was 10-14 Apr (4 nights). This place is good especially if you plan to stay near the station. You can also walk around historical site easily, just 10-20 minutes. Room: The... More

We went here on our honeymoon. For the amount that we paid the hotel really surpassed our expectations. I would definitely stay there again. Only problem we encountered was traveling up four flights of stairs with our luggage. It's also in a great location, only a couple blocks from Il Duomo.

We spent 5 nights at Il Ceilo and overall had a very enjoyable experience. The whole decor and vibe of the place was a major plus point for me. Being a designer myself, I really appreciate the effort they went through to furnish the rooms with unique furniture and art pieces. They also had an interesting selection of design/art books...

Il Cielo was a fantastic place to stay in Florence. It was a perfect place to be based from and is a great value for money. I was attracted by the low cost but would go back because of the location and the great breakfast that is offered. The rooms are comfortable and I do not mind sharing a bathroom... More

I spent 5 nights here and it exceeded all my expectations. Here's why: Great location: It's 5 minutes from the main train station, 7 minutes to the Duomo and about 15-20 minutes to the other major sites. The B & B is located on a quiet and safe street at night. Fantastic value: For the location and service, it was... More
