Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a central piazza, boasting a great location close to Art Viva tours to Tuscany. The rooms are basic, clean, and have private bathrooms, yet lacking in decor and views. The night shift receptionist was unhelpful, affecting our sleep due to cleanliness issues. The dining experience offers a nice sweet Italian breakfast, but lacks substantial meal options. Overall, an okay hotel for a short stay, ideal if location is key.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms, although a bit dated, were large, sunny, clean, and had high ceilings. I particularly enjoyed my room on the 4th floor with a small balcony, a compact bathroom, and functional air conditioning, even though it felt a bit tight compared to other places I've stayed at in Italy. The service was top-notch with staff going out of their way to be helpful and offering plenty of breakfast choices. The location couldn't have been better, right in the heart of central Florence and close to the train station. The dining experience, while fine, consisted mostly of sweet pastries with no protein options. The hotel facilities were decent, offering a satisfactory stay.
Staying at this hotel was a real gem! The location is superb, tucked away in a quiet alley, yet so close to all the action. The rooms are lovely, spotless, and cozy, offering a peaceful retreat even with lively performances outside. The service was top-notch, ensuring I had all I needed during my stay. Although the dining options were a bit limited, the convenience and value for the price were excellent.
I was pleasantly surprised by the spacious room at this hotel, unlike many others I've experienced in Europe. However, the lack of a refrigerator and the room's cleanliness were disappointing. The signal issues led us to request a refund. The overall room was basic, slightly musty, and featured the world's smallest bathroom, making it challenging to move around comfortably.
The hotel's location is excellent, right in the heart of the city near various attractions, although it can be noisy. The service is friendly and helpful, and the rooms, albeit clean, are quite small with a unique 'wet room' setup. The dining options are average at best, and you have to pay for Wi-Fi by the hour.
The hotel had an interesting room design where the whole room was tiled, and the shower was in the middle with curtains separating it from the toilet and sink. It felt like a throwback to hostel stays in Turkey. The service was very friendly and accommodating, going out of their way to help. The location was fantastic, right in the center of Florence, close to many attractions. The dining experience was continental style, setting you up nicely till lunchtime. Overall, a quirky hotel with some unique features.
I stayed at the hotel at the end of our trip. The rooms were big and clean, though a bit dated, they were certainly more than adequate for a city stay. The breakfast was absolutely good.
The hotel had spacious rooms with a lovely final touch but the bathroom layout was a bit odd. The service was helpful, though a bit reserved, and the breakfast was not a highlight. The location was excellent, right on the lively Piazza della Repubblica. The dining experience was satisfactory with a good selection of pastries. While the facilities were convenient, price could be better for the value offered.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, with its spacious and clean rooms and friendly staff. The location couldn't have been better, right in the heart of Florence. The dining experience was average, but the overall value for money was great.
The hotel is located right over the Piazza Della Republica in central Florence, offering a lively and convenient setting. While the rooms provide a nice view during the day, they can be noisy at night and lack some amenities. The service was overall hospitable, although they did misplace my reservation. The dining options, although delicious, are somewhat limited. Despite some downsides, the location is ideal for exploring the main attractions in Florence.
