The first thing to say about Canto de' Nelli is that the view from the rooms is amazing and cannot be overstated - a full picture window view of the cathedrals opposite and the markets below. The location is great - walking distance to all parts of Florence, and close to the Duomo. The markets can be a little noisy... more

The rooms are larger than normal in a B&B. The hostess is friendly and helpful. There is a quiet airy atmosphere. Relaxing no fuss. The location is central. All the main attractions are within easy walking distance. There are three flights of stairs, and no lift. This place would not suit anyone with a bad chest. more

Pros: close to everything, clean, big rooms, nice breakfast..... Cons: steep stairs, noise from market early in the morning(rooms next to the street), small size tv (only italian cahannels) considering room size. more

Canto de'Nelli B&B was my first ever experience staying in a B&B and it was fantastic. I decided to travel to Florence last minute for a long weekend. Obviously, we were searching for a nice reasonably priced place in the middle of the city. Canto de'Nelli was great. It was located near the train station, in the middle of the... more

Stayed here for 3 nights in September. It's in an excellent location for exploring Florence, close enough to the train & bus stations (but not too close), and everywhere is within easy reach. Our bedroom was lovely, with wonderful views opposite of San Lorenzo church and the Cappelle Medicee, and the Duomo in the background. Yes, there was noise, with... more

If you don't like noise, take the rooms away from the street. If you don't mind it, the front 3 rooms have a magnificent view. The hostess and her son are charming, and... more

The hostess gave us wonderful dinner recommentations and a nice breakfast each morning to start our day. It was a very... more

This was our first time in a B & B in Europe. We can't say enough great things about our stay in Canto de Nelli. Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived until we left. The owner, Faride and her son, made us feel very welcome and comfortable. I had an incident happen to me on the day of... more

What a perfect place to feel the pulse of this wonderful place. It is situated right in the square of the markets and more importantly a short 5-10 minute walk from the railway station. No need for a taxi even with heavy bags!! Faride was a warm and gracious hostess who really went out of her way to accomodate our... more
