Although this hotel is not at the heart of the center it was well placed if you hire a car as there is reasonable parking (space and rates) and is a 10 min walk from the Duomo, Academia and Ufizi gallery and a 20-25 min walk from the ponte vecchio. The rooms were great and the service was good. I... More

Basement room, but glass doors to patio gave it bright & cheerful feel. Poor lighting. Decor drab. Squeaky beds. Small fridge too full of stuff to buy, so no room for personal goods. Bathroom well equipped (esp liked packets of tissues) but floor & tub slippery and no exhaust fan, so mirror steams up. Good breakfast (nice cappuccino). Not convenient... More

Stayed in La Fortezza for 2 nights in July had everything you would need as per the standard of the hotel. I left my ipod in the hotel room; unlike some places where you would probably not expect to see it again the staff were very helpful in tracking it down and then looking at various options of sending this...

The front desk was soooo nice that this is what made the difference. The room was a nice size and to have a bathtub was great. It was convenient to everything. Again, the front desk was wonderful. WiFi NOT free but very affordable. More

We stayed at this hotel for one night in September. It was the meeting point in Florence for a walking group tour we were about to join so wasn’t our own choice. We had read about this hotel and tried to be objective, knowing that it was probably a three star establishment. The public areas are spacious and of good... More

Very good position, about 15-20 minutes away from the main landmarks (piazza della Signoria, piazza del Duomo, etc). This is an advantage, as the area is quieter than the centre. Excellent reception, with welcoming and efficient staff always ready to assist with information. Breakfast good for quality and quantity. Altogether a very good quality-price ratio. More

This hotel is about 8 minutes walk to the main train station and about 10 minutes walk to all attractions. The room we were in was very spacious but we didn’t have a view. It was a very pleasant hotel and the breakfast was very nice. We were able to book two tours with the front desk. The staff was... More

We stayed at this hotel for two nights recently and found the room and services fairly basic. The hotel is located close to the station and is well connected by buses. There is a nice bar close-by but many eating places around. The room and bathroom is small with little storage space. We did face the dry lady at the... More

Staying at La Fortezza Hotel was excellent. We enjoyed its central location and the fact we could all sleep together in one room (my husband and I and our child). The room was big, clean, tidy and luminous. I liked the way it looks. We saw it on the net (I believe it was Last minute travel web site) and... More
