This hotel's biggest asset was the central location literarly meters away from the Dome. The rooms were clean and spacious. 9.8/10 More

This "hotel" is extremely old and outdated. The "500" meter walk to the real hotel is more like 1/4 mile amongst hundreds of people while dragging your luggage. The noise is unbearable for street side rooms. Despite the view of the duomo the cons far outweigh the pros!! Don't waste your money staying here. The hassles aren't worth it. Not... More

When i booked this hotel i was made aware that the only rooms available were the small double rooms that overlooked the very quiet courtyard with the bathroom next door but for my sole use. The room was exactly as described small but big enough for 2 adults. The rooms were furnished with beautiful soft furnishings. Beautful high ceilings with... More

Palazzo Ruspoli was literally kitty-corner from the huge Duomo in Florence. Although you may find it odd to have to go up one floor to find the reception, this is actually quite common in Florence. I should note, though, that this isn't a full service hotel. The reception is only there part of the day, but while they are there,... More

There is no AC in the4th floor rooms. We stayed at this place for 3 days until June 30. Upon our arrival at noon, the doors where closed so we tried to convince a reception at their sister hotel to come and let us leave our luggage. That was almost the only success we had at this place. The web... More

Palazzo Ruspoli is very conveniently located right in the heart of Florence. We had a view of the Duomo from our room. It is about 10 minute walk from the train station. There are only 19 rooms, so it is very quiet in the evenings. We saw other customers during breakfast, but otherwise we rarely saw anybody else. The drawback... More

The hotel is GREAT! in all the ways, location, quality, service. It is a perfect choice to spend a few days in Florence. I booked a twin room through Easy Click Travel for 91 € with breakfast included. It is not a proper hotel but a bed and breakfast, but this is only notice because the reception is only open... More
