This is a great small hotel. The staff and service were absolutely superb - put almost all other hotels to shame in this respect. It had a lot of wee extras that help make your stay such as laptop with free internet, DVD/PS2, DVD library, small book library, and a complementary happy hour with drinks and nibbles each evening.

Only drawbacks are:
- if you have a lot of luggage there is a steep set of stairs to climb to get to the lift. Although we went and checked with reception and they sent their porter to get the bags.
- In my initial order my email unknowingly got spammed, which meant my order of two nights was not confirmed and we could only stay one night. However, the staff sorted out another hotel (higher star class but cheaper price) just up the street. So if you book via the internet follow up on your email order to ensure it is confirmed.

Hotel Davanzati was our first stay as we arrived in Italy. The first thing you notice is the professionalism of the staff. Tommasso and his family do a wonderful job of taking care of your every need. Their suggestions for meals was excellent and what a wonderful addition to our stay to have a Happy Hour every evening. It gave us the opportunity to talk to other guests and get other suggestions for sights, etc. A PC in every room is such a plus and very unusual. The location was excellent and within walking distance of everywhere we wanted to go. Thank you!

We stayed here just two short nights and loved this hotel, in fact it was our favorite on our two week Europe vacation! I booked based on Trip Advisor reviews and was a little concerned about the reviews being real or accurate, but everything was true! The room was on the cozy side but very charming and well appointed. The staff was super helpful, especially assisting us with dinner reservations. The happy hour was magical with great music, candles everywhere with wine and prosecco flowing. The bartender was charming! Breakfast was very nice, with made to order cappuccino and lattes by an equally charming attendant. Great location, great price. Magical! I hope someday to come back to Florence and we will definitely stay here.
