The hotel is out of town but only a few minutes walk to tram station where you can make use of this clean efficient public transport & be downtown in the thick of old FLorence in about 10mins. The hotel itself was very clean albeit smallish room but good kingsize bed. Breakfast was adequate. Price was good at Euro63 for... More

Very nice and clean hotel, nice rooms, very nice breakfast. Enjoyed staying there. It is about 10 min from train station in a tram, but we only used it a few times. Florence is very small, we always walked everywhere by feet.

I stayed at this hotel in October of 2009. The hotel is not centrally located. The building is quite old but the rooms are sufficiently sized in comparison to other hotels I've stayed in, in Florence. The front desk clerk at the time was quite helpful, he allowed me to check in early and was conversant in English. With this... More

I've stayed at this hotel many times because it is convenient for our cause. It is nothing exceptional, just a room, most of the time clean with a ok bed and old fashioned furniture. The staff are always very polite and the breakfast is a combination of cheap pastries and cereal. The coffee for italian standards is terrible as it... More

We was extremely pleased with many aspects of this hotel. The reception/breakfast area is attractive, making a good first impression. We were very impressed with our room, which was a good size, very clean and attractively furnished. The en-suite was a good size too. Our room also has a flat screen tv, and free wifi. We were on the top... More

I expected the worse but it was a very good and nice place. Small and friendly. We stay for 4 nights and use the local bus for travel to the center of Florence. The restaurant in the next house was perfect. Not a romantic restaurant, but very good food.

We are traveling a lot so good and reasonably priced hotels are very important. Hotel Alex is very good .Very clean. Good air conditioning. Quite spacious rooms and bathrooms. Helpful and friendly staff especially Donald and Andrea.... More

This was a good hotel if it was sold as a 2-stars but because that's a 3-stars one I have to say that is inadequate. Rooms have old furnitures and mine had the roof with some damp. Bathroom is tiny and wc and bidet are too close and it's impossible to sit on the bidet if you're taller than 160cm!... More

Pros: Very clean. Good air conditioning unit. Quite spacious. Near a good pizza place (Firenze Super Pizza). Helpful and friendly staff. Cons: Far from the city (would not suggest walking). The busses are quick and easy to take once you know the correct lines. Do not trust the bus drivers to drop you near where they think the hotel is... More
