We stayed there Sept. 24- 26. It's a great place simply for the location. It is right on the Piazza della Repubblica and close to everything. Piazza della Repubblica is a lively square. That being said, you can hear a lot of noise. Our room faced the Orsanmichele Church and you could see the top of the Duomo. There was... more

It is a simple small hotel with a great location, good service, nice breakfast and clean. Once you get over the fact that you are on the fourth floor of an office type building, you will find it quite quaint. The location simply is excellent. The room was very large and the bathroom was functional. We enjoyed our stay here. more

I do think this hotel has been a bit hard done by in some of the reviews. Firstly, to all those who have complained about the noise. It is in the middle of a city overlooking a large piazza ! what did you expect? The noise is just the same as you would find in any city in a central... more

Four women from the USA stayed at the Olimpia Hotel on the Plaza de Republic and I must say that the staff were the most offensive that we encountered in our five weeks in Europe. I asked the assistant manager if we had somehow offended him as he was extremely rude to us during our stay. He denied and said... more

I stayed here with some friends for 2 nights in June. The ONLY thing going for this 2 Star hotel is the fantastic location...right on the Piazza Republica. Our room was very musty and the old fan did not work. Thankfully, the evenings were fairly cool, but in deep summer, it would be a problem. The included breakfast was just... more

What a great location this Hotel has. Right in the middle of all the main places you would want to visit. It is a wonder that the owners don't upgrade. The Hotel is an Italian 3 star and definately not up to 3* UK, however, it is perfectly adequate. Our room was quite small with no outlook (a stone wall... more

The location was great! This hotel is right on one of the many squares in Florence. Walking distance to EVERYTHING. There were 2 couples in our room (a quad) and it was more than enough room for 4 of us. Bathroom was a little wierd, the shower is in the middle of the bathroom. The hotel was clean and the... more

Brilliant location at the heart of Florence, helpful staff, large clean and comfortable rooms. I guess what keeps them from expanding or charging a higher rent is the fact that they are located on the 4th floor. Good 2/3 * hotel. more

Perfect for what I was looking for. It was basic but good value for money as I was only staying there a few hours. Really friendly staff. Very welcoming. So central. 5 mins from train station. 5 mins from main touristy areas. Recommend it definitely! more

Wow, what an amazing location! This hotel is located right on one of the biggest piazzas in Florence. You can't beat this location. At night, you are right in the middle of all the hustle and bustle. Plenty of restaurants right outside the front door. Surprisingly, the morning breakfast was the most comprehensive of all six hotels we stayed at... more
