I will admit: I booked this hotel for three nights in May because I got a good rate. While the hotel did not turn out to be a sanctum of horrors, it was definitely on the ‘ho-hum’ side of things. The single room, though functional, was bare and rustic; the window lock was broken; the towels, though clean, had a... more

Recently stayed here for 5 nights. The hotel location is great for shopping in very expensive stores. My hotel room was the wierdest i have ever stayed in. A tiny claustrophobic room with a bed. Down rickety steps to a small "sitting room" with two chairs and an armoire. The armoire had a clothes rod that was very high and... more

In the centre of the city . The staff was very friendly and gave us very useful tips about the city and other excursions. They even offered to buy tickets for musueums before hand. Clean rooms and very quite. Right on the fashion street and hardly 5 minute drive from the railway station will certainly stay again there more

This is a great location and we felt like it was a real bargain. The rooms/bathroom are large and very comfortable. The breakfast each morning was good and the staff was helful. more

A very nice 3 star hotel with great service, large rooms, and a superb location. We walked there from the train station (Santa Maria Novella) in about 10 minutes. All the major attractions of Florence are within 15 minutes walk of the front door. Our room was on the back of the hotel and was extremely quiet. Nice breakfast in... more

La Residenza has a great location in Florence. No more than a 15 minute walk from any of the major sites (on both sides of the Arno). Also, if you love designer shopping, you'll be in heaven. All the big designers have stores on the same street. Prada was directly across the street and the other big names were just... more
