We picked this hotel because it was close to the train station. Excellent location that was only 2 blocks from the train station. As soon as we walked in you could smell very strong cigarette smoke and our room also smelled like stale cigarette smoke. Otherwise than that, it was very clean, room was a good size, good buffet breakfast,... more

We selected this hotel for its convenient location near to the station although we were prepared for it to be a little downmarket as a result. However, we were pleasantly surprised. The rooms were clean and well furnished. The air conditioning was already turned on so the room was lovely and cool when we arrived. The staff were very helpful... more

The hotel is clean and the staff quite helpful, but the price of being convenient to the railway station and the sites is that it is in a horrendously noisy area. Even with the new windows and thick shutters closed, the noise was awful in my front room overlooking a traffic light with trucks, cars, motorbikes and scooters revving up... more

Went to Italy with few expectations with regard to hotels. The most I hoped for was a clean room with an adequate breakfast .. and that the staff would be able to understand my terrible Italian :-).. all three expectations were met and exceeded. This was practically perfect as far as location went - I travelled by train and its... more

We have stayed at the Hotel Boccaccio every time we come to Florence - we have stayed here for 12+ years. It's always lovely to come back. The hotel is a family run hotel, and everyone at the front desk are incredibly helpful. The location is excellent - you can very easily walk from the train or bus station -... more

My wife and I stayed here for one night after seeing the hotel a few weeks earlier during a visit to Florence. At 90 Euros for the night it was not the cheapest hotel in the city but it certainly was far from the dearest. We were impressed by the room and the bathroom on first siting but then discovered... more

Helpful staff - they speak good English,friendly but not pushy - professional. Clean rooms, central location. Furnished in good taste - rooms/bathrooms not too big, but practical. Breakfast nothing fancy, but you would not expect that from a 3* in Italy anyway - nice REAL coffee. Booked 8 rooms directly with hotel - reservations answered my request within 2hrs. We... more

We stayed one night, it was really easy to find which was a big plus in our opinion as we had luggage and with it only being five mins away from the train station, made it great. It was nice that on their website it gave good directions on how to reach it, not many I researched did. The room... more

The hotel Boccaccio is a decent little hotel right next to the train station, the room was very clean and had air conditioning, TV and a very basic mini bar. FOOD The breakfast was very basic, a very simple continental breakfast, stale bread and croisants, cereal and a selection of jams. It did the job of easing your hunger, but... more
