Quaint Hotel with Character

Review of Hotel Hermitage
4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Oct 16, 2017
We stayed 4 nights here recently and had a wonderful time.
Location is superb, next the Pont Vecchio bridge. Ten minutes from the famous Duomo and tower.
Galileio museum and Uffusio museums withing a stones throw, 2 minutes.
Excellent breakfast everyday, This rooftop breakfast area sets you up for the day, with the view and the lovely decore. Rooms are European in size, snug for us North Americans but beds are comfortable and deliver everything you expect from a well located older hotel. They keep is very clean and tidy, run well. Staff were eager to help and quick to tell you about their wonderful city. We would stay here anytime.
Date of stay: October 2017

Perfect location overlooking the Arno River. Steps to the Uffizi Gallery, the Palazzo Vecchio and the Piazza della Signoria; an easy 10 minute walk to the Duomo and a few more to the Accademia Gallery (home of Michelangelo's David). Shops and restaurants close by. We enjoyed two great dinners within walking distance: Coquinarius near the Duomo and Trattoria Antico Fattore just a couple of minutes from the hotel.

Our room, on the 1st floor, had an amazing view of the Ponte Vecchio. It was nicely decorated with a fully equipped bathroom (bathroom is tight, but fine for one person at a time). To be able to sit on your bed and see the Ponte Vecchio is well worth a smaller bathroom in my opinion! We closed our windows to sleep and had no issues with noise.

Beautiful rooftop terrace with views of both the Arno and the Palazzo Vecchio--perfect for picture taking day or night. Lovely sitting room/lounge on the 5th floor for drinks or relaxing as well.

Breakfast offered a nice variety and the service was excellent. Sunny and well appointed breakfast room with, again, beautiful views.

Check-in was easy and our bags were delivered to our room. We also had an easy check-out and the staff arranged a taxi to take us to the airport without hesitation.

Would love to return on our next trip to Florence.

Great location just off North end of the Ponte Vecchio. Minutes from Uffizi Gallery and other attractions. Excellent rooftop garden setting for a European breakfast. Only negative is climbing a flight of stairs to reach the elevator. The elevator is very small. (Will hold two people or one person and a large suitcase). I would definitely stay at the Hermitage again when returning to Florence.

We were only there for one night but it is in a good location overlooking the river, with an easy walk to everything. Small room but a very good value. Friendly helpful staff and nice rooftop patio. Easy cab ride to the train station.

This little hotel is in an incredible location just steps from the Ponte Vecchio, and minutes away from practically all of Florence. Monica and Yolanda were extremely helpful prior to our arrival making various dinner reservations for us, as well as finding some stores close by that were needed for completing business documents. During our 4 day stay other staff members were also very helpful. The hotel is very simple, and some of the rooms should be considered for an update by management. We did enjoy the breakfast room with the view of the Florence rooftops, and the morning staff was very attentive to our needs. A small terrace with a wonderful view of the Arno, Ponte Vecchio, and Palazzo Vecchio, is located one floor above the reception area (which is on the 5th floor), and this space was lovely for relaxing and having an aperitivo after a long day of walking in this incredible city. We would recommend rooms higher than the second floor as they will be less noisy if they face the Ponte Vecchio. Note that if people have mobility problems there are 10 steps at the entrance of the hotel to reach the area where the small elevator is. One other comment is related to services offered at the hotel, and on their website is listed "Sky channels". and from what we saw, there are no Sky channels available. Frankly not a problem for us, but these should not be advertised.

Room tip: Rooms on the lower flowers can be noisier. Nice to have a noon check-out!

Lovely Quaint hotel with an amazing staff! Spacious room with great view of courtyard. Widow shutters opened to let in a beautiful breeze! Breakfast buffet served on rooftop terrace. Staff will make anything extra you request. Such a great location! Easy walk to all major attractions! Would definitely stay here again!
