A really lovely hotel in a great area. Five minutes' walk to Florence's main train station and very close to the Medici Chapel. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the room a tad small but clean and comfortable. Everything that needs to be seen in Florence was within walking distance and there were some really nice and cheap restaurants... More

We stayed in Porta Faenza in August 2011 for our honeymoon for a week, and then after a week in Rome, again for two days before we left. My husband saw great reivews and booked it through expedia. From the online booking all the way to the checkout, the experience was excellent. We have recommended it to others seveal times... More

We enjoyed our stay here. The beds were very comfortable. The room was very clean and the decor of the hotel is inviting. It was a little difficult to find walking from the train station...the address numbers in Italy don't seem to have any rhyme or reason. We chose to have breakfast as well and the choices were very tasty... More

We have visited Florence twice and stayed at the Porta Faenza both times and both times we have been SO pleased. When traveling with family it is wonderful to have a room to accommodate 4 people in one very spacious room. The rooms are clean, quiet and charming. Our room had a small outdoor patio with a table and chairs... More

Things I very much appreciated: - location, just a 5 minute walk from the train station, and less than 10 minutes from the historical center - area surrounding the hotel is full of restaurants (some with excellent TA reviews) which I very much appreciated as I arrived...

The location is central and very near to the Train station, tour buses, hop-on hop off. 10 minutes walk. Very nice hotel, off the main road. Thought i am here only for 1 night, still like to recommend this hotel, for the location, free Breakfast and Internet. Value for money. More

There was a good variety of foods to choose from at breakfast and the dining room had a nice atmosphere. The rooms were made... More
