Super close to SMN train station and no noise from the train. One of the largest bathrooms in multiple trips to Italy we have ever had. Great breakfast Buffett and the employees were so kind. Will be staying here again the next trip to Florence. Thanks Hotel Embassy

We stayed for 1 night just to visit Florence in our way to Milan. The hotel is really nice and modern. We enjoyed our clean room. The bathroom was also modern and clean. The breakfast was good The location is perfect to stay in Florence, because is really close to the center. We absolutely enjoyed our stay in Embassy Hotel 👍

Hotel Embassy Florence Hotel is falsely advertised! It’s a 0 star not a 4 star. AC doesn’t work, no hot water, shower doors fall off. The staircases are filthy and filled with dust. The beds are like sleeping on cardboard on the floor. The manager is rude, mean, snarky, and not accommodating. He does not resolve issues . Stay far away from this property. It is also important to note that this property is not in a safe place. You constantly here the train every 5 minutes if room is on side of street. Whatever you do , do not stay at this property!

In comparison to other hotels I have stayed at, it is not deserving of its 4 star rating. The room was small but very clean. The breakfast was underwhelming - on two mornings we left it and found somewhere else even though we had paid for it as part of the holiday.

No iron so be prepared to pay €6 for ironing one blouse. Fridge broken, reported, but never fixed, safe broken so carried our valuables with us all time, TV not working also reported but never fixed. Reception staff needs to be trained on customer service skills as treated us like massive inconvenience. Location and air conditioning are the only 2 aspect which are good.

HOTEL EMBASSY FLORENCE 4 stars Room 501 Ground floor- back building. I’m not sure who gives a hotel its stars but I’m assuming this one has given them too itself! This hotel is not remotely a 4 star hotel. I would say 2 at best and that’s probably being generous! What I booked to what we received was 2 very different rooms. Apparently recently renovated, okay rooms were clean, but there was about 2 foot all around the bed very small squashed and cramped room. The bathroom was not new. Gentleman that checked us in said…nice quiet room…he’s obviously never spent the night in there! $25€ pn to park onsite No real concierge. For the amount of money we paid per night I expected much more from this hotel. I expect a lot more from a 4 star hotel that for sure. *BED- 1/5…I don think Hercules would even sleep on it…Rock hard, and the perfect height if I was cut off at the knees! Pillow topper was put on for the 2nd night better, but not much. *PILLOWS - 2/5…no substance at all *FOOD - 3/5 …Typical European breakfast but not a huge selection…quite bland and boring. Ended up eating out the 2nd morning. NO Restaurant onsite. AMENITIES- 2/5 …Basic shampoo and body wash, Some sugar, a couple of cheap tea bags, 2 coffee sachets, 1 powdered skim milk, NO milk. No spoons and Paper cups! No water. SERVICE- 4/5 PROS- * Close to the train staton and the town Center. * Plenty of restaurant close by. Great steak house around the corner! * Friendly staff, lady tried to fixed the bed situation but it was really beyond help. CONS- * The second anybody arrived in the foyer, and spoked at normal voice level, it echoed horrendously through the whole building. We could just hear the trams…a gentle thudding through the floor, but it was not so bad…but the noise of the voices and the lift was pretty bad, late at night and early in the morning. So you could just imagine the sound of a group returning after a few drinks late at night. No sleep had! I think i managed about 5 hours over 2 nights! * Fan in bathroom made a terrible noise after a while. * Shower gets water everywhere. * the position of the bidet rendered it fairly useless. * Very squashed and camped room not what’s advertised. Would I recommend? - NO Would I stay here again? - Absolutely not! Total overall 2/5, 1 is purely for the location. It sure doesn’t live up to its name or stars!…

The room was clean and very basic. English TV channels never worked even though they said they fixed it multiple times. Close to the train station (but next time I would go closer to restaurants). Breakfast was best if you got there at 7:30 when more fruit was available and the eggs were hot. We were able to come down at 7:15 one morning when we had an early excursion. Staff were pleasant and offered assistance (e.g., restaurants). We had a "deluxe" room and it was bigger with an extra bed in the room - we used it for our suitcases.

4 star hotel with non existent sound proofing between rooms, 10:30 checkout and quite poor breakfast options. We had our room reserved and they didnt manage to clean it by 14:00 despite so early checkout at 10:30. Warm water flow is quite problematic at the shower. It gets constantly cut so its not smooth at all. Bonus points for staff beign very friendly.

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights . It was easy to find short walk from the Train station. All the staff were very very friendly and very nice and helpful. The room was very clean and roomy for European standards. The Breakfast had a variety of food . The croissants were the best always warm and flaky. Martina and Kassondro at the reception were both exceptional. The provided lots of information on getting around Florence and they were so very welcoming. We enjoyed our time at this lovely hotel we would definitely recommend visiting and hopefully we can return soon .

Stayed for 3 nights. Close to city centre, 15 min walk to ponte vecchio, 10 mins walk to the cathedral, 10 mins to central market, 5 mims to the central train station. Yes close to the train station and you have to pass it every day, but there is nice shortcut, when you don’t have to pass the actual station when you walk to the city centre. So we did not have any problem with the location. Good breakfast. Nothing special or to remember in particular, but a good start to fill you up and get ready for a long day of discoveries. Try to get your room at the front facade. The rear elevation is overlooking the tram lines and facing the train station and that may bother you, if you are sensitive to noise.
