Wonderful breakfast with a pleasant host and the hotel was close to the sites I wanted to see. Best deal I had on my trip

Cary United States of America

We only stayed one night and it was very close to the Train Station that we need to use early the next morning.

Nancy United States of America

Excellent location. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Liam United Kingdom

Excellent location, minutes from most of attractions and transportation. Great breakfast. Courteous staff.

Lg United States of America

The staff make you feel comfortable with the stay. They were really attended.

Patricia Colombia

The room was very comfortable and lots of light comes in through the window. Breakfast was great!

Calvin Italy

Everything was ideal. A comfortable quiet room near the railroad station. Only suggestion —the bathroom really needs a night light.

Ruth United States of America

This hotel is a 3 star hotel and the rooms are where the hotel is slightly let down. They're pretty basic and small. The rest of the hotel is lovely, staff are great and the location is perfect. Florence is a small city, everything is in walking distance. This hotel is 5 mins walk from IL Duomo, 10mins from the Ponte Vechio bridge and the Uffizi gallery. Everything you need is in walking distance.

Robert Ireland

Staff was really helpful, nice and kind, especially the beautiful inside-out Ms. Rafaela. Excellent location, in a very commercial street with all kinds of shops, restaurants and cafés that stay open till late at night, yet no noise reaches the room. Just a 5 minute walk to the main SMN train station. Lovely breakfast too (though I would like to see omlettes added)

Nouran Egypt

Decent accommodations and close to many attractions of the city

David Italy

Excellent location!
