very chic place in the center of everything!! with the BEST view 😍😍

Maryam Saudi Arabia

The room was very comfortable. The common areas were beautiful and the rooftop bar was awesome. We would definitely stay here again.

Kara United States of America

Breakfast and servers were wonderful. Hotel had the most picturesque views of Florence but the distance to the main heart of the business district was a bit of a walk. Walking is great but you have to watch your step every minute while admiring the views as all sidewalks are very old.

Eve United States of America

The best rooftop pool, View all over Florence, nice and helpful staff, can't wait to come again! Great location, close to everything.

Zuzana Mexico

We wanted a property with a pool for our children since we were going in August. The rooftop pool was fantastic and the view was amazing. The staff was so helpful and friendly. The concierge’s dinner recommendation was spot on both nights. Great Florence hotel

Candie Italy

Rooms were beautiful - especially balcony views!!

Sarah United States of America

Great location. Beautiful view of the Arno. Rooftop pool was so nice after a hot day of sightseeing, and the view of the Duomo and Santa Croce was amazing. Breakfast was wonderful, and the staff was friendly and helpful.

Dana United States of America

Great location, within walking distance of all the major attractions, close to the Orno and many shops, cafes and restaurants. Beautiful, clean and comfortable accommodations. Elegant and modern interior of a historic building along the river.

Carla United States of America

Swimming pool is excellent and location really handy to visit other side of the river.

Tom United Kingdom

The breakfast was delicious and was respectful of Corona restrictions. There was plenty to eat with various flavors which was great, also included in the room price. The room was lovely and it was cool to wake up with the view of the church outside the windows with the bells ringing.
