The most important thing to note about this hotel is that you absolutely must check in either during the listed times or at the time you list on your booking. We got it for a steal because of the off-season, and the room was very nice and we could see the Arno from our window. It's not especially close to... More

Perfect location for those wanting to tour the city by foot, within walking distance from train station and a lot of good sightseeing spots. Saff was very accommodating and helpful, gave us a map and outlined what good places there were to see. I would recommend to anyone who is planing on going to Florence.

I stayed at the Franz House with my mother for 4 days. Our host was amazing! He was so knowledgable and very nice. He prepared breakfast each morning as well. I would recommend this B&B if you would like a quiet, nice

This little hotel was nothing amazing in terms of decor, but everything else was fantastic. The people were kind, holding my luggage before check-in so I could explore and providing me with a multicourse breakfast. The room spartan but the window overlooking the street was FABULOUS! If you are a light sleeper I don't recommend it, but as a solo... More

My boyfriend and I booked this for a couple nights, and during the booking process we said we'd arrive at 11:59pm (it's on the receipt, we knew we had a late flight in). However, when we arrived around 11:45pm, we rang the doorbell, and no one responded. We rang the doorbell and called the phones for 30 min before leaving... More

I spent two nights in the Franz and wish I could've stayed longer. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the place is well-located near the river in Florence, not far from the train station. The staff are really friendly (we arrived after the limit for check-in, and the guy, whose name I can't remember, came from where he lives... More

This is the best B&B I have ever stayed in Europe. The host was awesome and he gave us advice on what to do and eat during our stay. The room was well equipped and spacious (my partner and I stayed in a room which can accommodate 4 people, I think). The breakfast was great and with a great variety... More

After waiting 90 minutes for someone to show up and let us into our room (they don't have 24hr reception so we called that morning to advise of our arrival just, as they asked), we finally got into the double private bathroom. The guy was nice when we arrived; very sorry that he'd been told the wrong time & that... More
