Huge, clean, charming room, "Above & Beyond" service, amazing location, excellent breakfast--La Residenza has it all--and all with a smile. My wife & I stayed here 15 years ago--were anxious to go back. Was as charming & friendly as we remembered. Only thing that changed was the designer stores lining Via Tornabuoni. Fancy neighborhood, down-to-earth prices.

My wife and I stayed here for three days and were content with our stay. With the location being so close to the center of town everything is outside of your doorsteps. Ponte Vecchio/Uffizi Gallery and the Duomo are around the corner along with many museums and restaurants to fit any budget and style of cuisine. What was interesting for... More

Close to everything you need in Florence. In the heart of all the designer fashion stores. The room was huge and the bathroom almost as big. All was very clean. The elevator was one of those classic old ones out of the 19th century. It's a great street with lots of eating places close by. Breakfast was included and not... More

We just returned from a two night stay at La Residenza. Both the room and the bathroom were huge (even had a large bathtub), especially by European standards and the bed was very comfortable. Additionally, the room had it's own AC which we could operate by remote control at any time we wished (if you have stayed at hotels in... More

I booked this hotel for 4 nights based on reviews and we only stayed here for one. Pros: the staff is great, very nice, and incredibly helpful. They could not have been nicer when I announced that we were leaving. Location is fabulous, quiet, and safe. The room was really large and spacious. Cons: the room really needs updating, particularly... More

La Residenza on Tornabuoni in Florence gives great value for money considering the size of the room, the newness of the bathroom and the perfect location. Out of season the price of a large double room was 70e. and for that you got breakfast - although the coffee out of those dreadful machines was pretty gruesome. But the service was... More
