We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel. For our honeymoon, we stayed there for 3 nights at the beginning of May, 2009. Because it was a quiet time for the hotel we got a good deal which included breakfast and taxes. Service was very pleasant; room was clean. We especially liked the design of the room. It looked like... more

Stayed here in mid-May and loved it. Great room; really good size (expecially the bathroom which was enormous) and a lovely view over rooftops to the facade of the Santa Croce chruch. Service good, particularly the nice touch of leaving a plate of chocolate coated strawberries on the first night, and the public rooms are beautiful. Only quibble being the... more

The Relais is an oasis in Florence. We stayed for in June 2008 and were simply delighted by the room (Junior Suite) and the overall service. The building is beautifully restored with spacious public areas which retain their traditional style. Our room was fitted out in quite a modern, but restrained, style. It was about 5m by 5 m, with... more

My husband and I were recently in Italy on holiday. As we were exploring Florence, we noticed Relais Santa Croce hotel. Being the curious person that I am, I went in to look around and also spoke to the bellman. He was very friendly and polite, and we asked if you all were open for dinner to non-guests. He said... more

No, this is thankfully not your typical deluxe american chain hotel. This is Europe, the real thing... History, design, quality, knowledge, discretion, wisdom...an absolutely wonderful haven in the centre of the capital of the sublime... more
