It was a great stay at the althea rooms. Very clean and well organized room. A PC with free internet access was a surprise! The best part of the stay was Antonio ( the person who manages the rooms). He was extremely helpfull and gave us lot of tips , which helped us a lot. more

After much research for our Florence vacation, and having been there once before, with budget a concern, we decided on Althea Rooms for our 4 night stay on November 24 -28. Took taxi from train station, 9 euro and 5 minute drive. We liked staying on the other side of the river Arno. Location was quiet, 5 minute walk to... more

We stayed at Althea Rooms for 3 nights and loved our stay. It's on a quiet side street on the other side of the river from the Duomo so we really felt like part of the neighborhood. Our hotel was only a few blocks from the Pitti Palace and then another block or 2 to get across the river. Florence... more

We three stayed with Antonio in Althea rooms for 2 nights in early May. We found the room to be very clean, well kept and comfortable. It is located on the south side of the river in the Oltrarno district, very convenient to Pitti palace, Boboli gardens, and away from the hustle bustle of the old downtown core. 10 minutes... more

I very much enjoyed my stay at Althea Rooms, excellent location across the river but not too far to walk into the city center, very clean, separate room with computer in my single room, plenty of space and Antonio is a pleasure to deal with and very very helpful, he gives numerous tips and advise to make sure that your... more

Althea Rooms is a small B&B just outside of the bustling centre of Florence. The location is near Santo Spirito and amongst many students and locals and outside the "tourist" comings and goings which made this stay wonderful. Plus, we ate at 3 restaurants in the area which served wonderful food and slightly less than in the city centre. It's... more

The B&B is well situated and the rooms are perfect (clean, internet connection, tv, king size beds, etc.), so, taking into account the low price, you have one of the best quality/relation balances in Florence. However, the best characteristic of the Althea Rooms are Antonio and Maura, who managed the B&B. They’re extremely kind and will help you whatever the... more

Althea Rooms was the perfect place to stay at in Florence. We were there for only one night, but wished we stayed for at least two nights. The room was located on the first floor, large, and clean. A mini fridge, tv, computer with internet, mini safe were all very convenient to have. Breakfast was available, but we had to... more

Great location - convenient to all the sights, yet somewhat removed from the throngs of tourists. Rooms are spacious, although bathrooms (particularly showers) are so small you feel like you're on a boat. Everything is very clean. Breakfast is served in room (coffee, juice, croissants, packaged cookies) as there is no breakfast room. Eating in the room is a litle... more
