1) The location -- near the great central food market, a short stroll from the Duomo, and, really, a reasonable walk to all the major sites of Florence -- is very excellent. Especially for the price (considering that Florence is an expensive city for decent accommodations). 2) The hotel staff is excellent. Everyone we dealt with at the desk was helpful, knowledgeable, friendly, and has good English. 3) Considering that Florence has a lot of accommodations with tiny yet expensive rooms, the Botticelli is excellent value. The rooms are not large, but they are not claustrophobic either. If you have stayed in some of the shoe box rooms in Paris, you know what I mean. 4) There is central air conditioning, with individual room controls. Unlike quite a few hotels in Italy, it works, it maintains a decent temperature throughout the day (and we were there during an unexpected September heat wave), and it's quiet.

Great location We stayed with a 7 month old baby. The hotel had a lift, but we then had to negotiate stairs with baby, pram, suitcases, etc as well to arrive at our room on the third floor.Quite expensive for a three star, average hotel!

The staff was excellent. They answered any and all of our questions. Very pleasant. The hotel is perfectly located to easily walk to any location or shopping in the city. Our room on the first floor, street-side, was a little noisy in the early morning, 5-6am or so, due to street cleaning and other trucks. Later in the week we stayed in other rooms, which were very quiet!

The fact that they had no WiFi services in the room was a huge disappointment. They claimed it was broken however I do not believe they had it for thr rooms at all. They did offer it in the lobby if you wanted to drag your laptop down.

Free wi-fi access was a benefit. The towels smelled like vinegar. The room was very small, even by European standards. The hotel staff in the evening, and the breakfast waitress were rude and very inhospitable. The breakfast was not very good as compared to the other 5 hotels we stayed at. Fewer options and quite limited choices. Also, you could hear other guests next door talking so it was quite noisy whenever someone came to their room. The hotel was just one block from a particularly seedy area.

The best thing about he hotel was the staff who were all very friendly and had all the information to hand. Very impressive. I think the breakfast was far too basic and lacked anything hot. When travelling on a budget you need to make the most of a breakfast that is included in the price and I was disappointed.

I had contacted the hotel in advance and had a very pleasant correspondence with staff which made us look forward to our stay even more. We even had a choice of the room which turned out to be exactly what we wanted: well arranged furniture, quiet and extremely clean. We do a lot of city tours and have stayed at a lot of hotels. We can truly say this is one of the best and such very good value for money. The staff is genuinely friendly and helpful, the breakfast good and the location just brilliant! So all in all we highly recommend it! We liked everything!

Localização, atenção dos funcionários, limpeza. Nada a criticar. Apenas a descrição no site do hotel de como chegar vindo de trem pode ser mais simples, ao invés de entrar na rua Nationale, basta sair da estação, seguir pela direita da saída indicada até a altura dos fundos da igreja Santa Maria Novella, dobrar à esquerda e seguir sempre em frente, a rua termina no hotel!
