The location as its close to the main station where we could travel even to bologna, venice, pisa,just buy taking train from main terminal. Its just 5 min walking from the hotel itself. For budget traveller can also buy water,and snacks at the supermarket mita/meta supermarket few meters away from the hotel, in between the hotel and the station but on the other side of the street of the hotel. The food is not too good, bread was dry, no toaster, but the toiletries in hotel are good, tub, etc all worked perfectly.

The rooms were clean, breakfast was sufficient. Location was very near to train station with only a short 10 minute walk to the centre. Shower was excellent and room was cleaned thouroughly each morning. Room for four was small with no walking space. The hotel staff were not particularly helpful in advising tourists yet their english was good.

The room, actually an apartment since we were four, was absolutely comfortable, clean, spacious, and warm. The breakfast was very good as well. It was located at a very convenient area, close to the downtown and the train terminal, and the most visited points in the city. We felt always safe in the area. Thanks to all. Kind regards and we will see you soon.

1.Excellent location. 2.good breakfast. 3.helpful reception staff. 4. Convenient luggage storage facility. 5. Decent room size. We stayed there for 1 day in the last week of March. Were given a room in the new wing of the hotel. We were greeted by stinking corridors and mosquitoes in the room. The reception staff very kindly (!!) provided us with mosquito repellant mats. 2.The lifts are tiny( very tiny). 3.The hotel does not mention anywhere that airconditioning cannot be switched on till may. It was quite warm and we had to sleep with open windows. 4.Close proximity to the train station does make it a little noisy but is not bothersome 5. Good for an overnight stay only. The main reason being the stinking corridors !! They really stink !!!!!!

Convinient, clean. Charging 5 euro per day for wi-fi is way too much, since most traveler would be out most of the time.

Great location for a 2 day visit to Florence, especially if traveling by train. Hotel staff were excellent and most helpful. They even gave me a bucket of ice for my room which was much welcomd after a long day walking around Florence. The breakfast was much more than I expected and the 2 ladies working in it were very delightful. Would recommend and revisit this Hotel if I ever return to Florence.

It was a quick walk from Santa M. Novella Railway Station, and in an area with a large choice of resonable restaurants. Access to the city centre and main tourists sites was easy and always walkable. The breakfast had a large choice. The staff remembered I was part of a larger group and had the table ready. My sister hired a car from the airport and there was parking and access was resonably easy.

The location is in direct line with all the major sites of Florence, easy to get to the sites and back to the hotel. The breakfast was incredible as was the room it was served in. Perfect for coming into or out of Florence by train.

The parking access. The price reasonable for a 4* italian star hotel. No internet access in the room as the wifi was too weak. It was mandatory for me to have an internet access in my room to work but no alternative has been proposed. The hair dryer, broken and even dangerous as burning. A solution has been proposed. A little bit old fashion.

I liked the localization of the hotel. Quite near the main railway station and 15 min walking from Ponte Vecchio. The beakfast is really good, the staff helpful and nice and the room comfortable and clean. I think Internet access should be free inside the entire hotel.

“We stayed at the Albani hotel in the center of Florence for four nights, five days and the experience was lovely. The staff was friendly and always helpful. We were always greeted with a warm and welcoming smile. The breakfas buffe was the best we have yet had and we have traveled around Italy quite alot. The hotels interior and rooms were luxurious and clean. The location is perfect when traveling to Florence because of it's proximity. We would highly recommend this hotel.
