We booked our holiday to this hotel with Lowcostholidays for 3 nights from 16th Apr to 19th Apr they arranged the hotel and flights perfectly, having read some reviews previously I was very concerned about actually finding this hotel, but it was approx 4/5 mins walk from the train station and clearly numbered, so far so good, on entering inside...

La Residenza Fiorentina is the new hotel near the Piazza Santa Maria Novella that replaces the Hotel Bellettini. When the Hotel Bellettini closed (the whole street of buildings was snatched up by corporate interests for 'development') we were afraid that we had lost our wonderful home away from home with its friendly staff and great accommodations. La Residenza is owned... More

I shall begin with our first impressions as we reflect back ... we walked all the way to the end of the street Residenza Fiorentina is on before we realised we had passed it, which should be a comfortable walk from the train station. Doubling back, we eventually found it with the help of a local shopkeeper. The hotel appears... More

We booked a room at hotel Universo, but on arrival we moved into this hotel.On was in the 200 meters, but we have conducted and assisted with your luggage.

The front of the hotel is not all that inviting but Dario on the front desk was more than helpful and the rooms were a nice size, very clean and... More

This hotel is perfectly located and staff is very helpful. I would stay there again.

The rooms were very large size, comfortable beds, very clean and modern. Dessert was fine, staff was very helpful and friendly. Perfect location if you need to drag your luggage from the train station like we did, but yet a short walk to the Boboli gardens and everything. I would definitely stay here again.

We ended up in Residenza Fiorentina because the hotel we'd booked into (Hotel Unicorno) across the road was having their rooms refurbished. We wouldn't have normally booked here because it was a little above our price range, but we'd really consider spending the extra to stay here again when we return to Florence. This hotel is modern, clean, comfortable, and... More

My husband and i spent 8 nights here in july 2011. We cannot say enough about the friendly, helpful staff. The location is ideal, a block from the church of santa maria novella, and less than a 10 minute walk to the duomo. Our room was very clean and had a view of the duomo. The complimentary breakfast wad very... More
