The hotel is tastefully decorated and air-conditioned. I loved that my windows opened directly onto the square below, as I fell asleep listening to the street musicians.

An Inside Look at Hotel Garibaldi Blu

Situated in Piazza Santa Maria Novella, in a strategic position for the station and the historic centre, the Garibaldi Blu is an innovative boutique design hotel in an historic building that once hosted Giuseppe Garibaldi, as the plaque outside indicates. The hotel opened December 5 2014. United by the fashion and young philosophy of the Hotel Rosso 23, physically is joined to the latter by an internal connection, with large common areas and services of a four star hotel that introduce a new innovative format "Two in one" in the world of hospitality: two hotels, two different styles together under the same roof. It is a hotel with two souls: contemporary design features and the latest technological comforts in an authentically historic and artistic framework, with original 19th-century frescoes and vaulted ceilings in typically Florentine style. The large lobby is the heart of the hotel and is a light-filled space with high vaulted ceilings and large windows that welcomes visitors into a winter garden characterized by large palm trees made from salvaged industrial materials. The reception area has large vintage dressers and a frescoed ceiling.

Humans should not be put in room A. It is right by the stairs AND has a courtyard that is basically adjoining to the back of all the restaurants. What does this mean? You will not sleep unless you sleep like a log. You will hear everything - from the plates being cleaned to people going up and down the stairs as they are whistling their happy tune at 7am. Air conditioning is also iffy as is wifi.
This is the 3rd time I have stayed here - in different room categories (including the suite). The location is fabulous as is the cleanliness of the hotel. Massimo is a gem!

There was a little light next to the door that was on constantly and lit the room up in the dark. Made it difficult to get to sleep.
Location was fantastic - able to walk to all major sites. The breakfast was particularly nice;good range and professional service. Turn down service at night time. Front of house staff very helpful and informative. We loved the room - the bathroom especially and the ceiling.

- • Leisure trip

We were charged Euro 4,80 per person per night for City Tax upon check-out August 20, 2019. The booking.com confirmation received June 6, 2019, via email clearly stated "Euro 4,80 per person per night is included" in the 3-night price of Euro 564.96 that was charged to my credit card on June 9. Please adjust the amount charged to my credit card this morning (August 20, 2019) by deducting Euro 28,80. Please confirm this adjustment via an email to the email address in the booking.com and hotel record of this stay. Thank you.
Excellent location, staff very responsive, rented unit was small with minimal storage space. Small problem with a check-out issue [see below].
