10/10 Exceptional

Nice and Convenient
Nice clean friendly older hotel with a good breakfast. Convenient location to the train and attractions.
John, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Close to the train terminal (walkable) this hotel is older but very nice. The staff was great and there were quite a few places to eat close by. Breakfast buffet was good. The old fashioned elevator was a plus!
Carol, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice place to stay during your vacation. Location of the hotel is a plus factor, very near to the train station, as well as with the tour places.
Rhoda, 2-night trip

My favorite hotel in Florence!!
Excellent location, very nice building, close to every important spot in Florence and to stores if you want shopping. I will use this hotel forever when going to Florence !
Rosana, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The rooms were comfortable, staff very friendly and accommodating. The location was close to The train station yet not at all noisy. Also close to all attractions. We would definitely rerun.
Nancy Warner, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Totally good for a short stay in Florence - short walk and easy to find from train station (I arrived very late). 15 mins walk to a lot of the main city centre sights. Staff helpful when asked for information. I enjoyed the cake and coffee breakfast.
Simon, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

I would go there again.
All of the folks were very helpful and courteous. The wifi could have been better but it seemed to be dependent on the time I was using it. It was clean and had been recently renovated.

6/10 Good

Very good location. Hairdryer is a bit dated and hardly does the work
Hui, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

It needs a little TLC, but it serves the purpose for the amount of time that you spend in the room. Very close to the center of Florence.
Evelia, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was very spacious for 4 people, and the location is ideal for travel by train, as it is less than a 5 minute walk from the train station. Distance to the major tourist attractions is a bit farther but totally walkable. The staff is very friendly and we’re very accommodating when we arrived prior to checking time. My only suggested improvement would be a safe in the t’room to lock up valuables, and also a bottle opener and glasses, but again staff was accommodating with supplying glasses. Overall an excellent staff in a spectacular city.
Matthew, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

They were helpful enough, but the room decor was very strange. Additionally, the small room’s air conditioner didn’t work, and the bathroom was very cave-like, as you could tell it didn’t originally exist.
Rachel, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Can be improved
Small hotel with a classic mid-20 century style and furniture. Friendly staff and well cleaned room. The beds were pretty hard and rather uncomfortable (and i like hard beds), so after a few nights i was really looking forward to a better sleep. Breakfast was very simple and repeated daily, had 3-4 very good cakes and pies, but it lacked in non-sweet alternatives. No salad/vegetables at all, and one day not even the non-sweet croissant was available; only sliced bread, cheese, ham and boiled egg if you wanted to avoid sweet stuff.

You have to carry your bags up a flight if stairs before you get to an elevator.
