Love this little hotel. It’s like being in an antiques shop, so Florence. Great staff. Good buffet breakfast. Perfect location for the centre. Less than 5 minutes from the Cathedral, excellent restaurants, cafes and bars. This was our second stay and would book again.
I enjoyed this hotel because it made it feel like you were receiving the italian experience because of the decorum in the rooms and windows while also maintaining modern qualities of a hotel. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Well placed for walking to restaurants, Santa Maria Novella, Ponte Vecchio. Pharmacy next door as well in case you catch a bug from your travels.
Excellent hotel and location with a very welcoming and friendly staff. The complementary breakfast was a great way to start the morning. We would definitely stay here again.
We absolutely loved our stay here. The room was very large and comfortable. The property is amazing, elegantly decorated and displaying a very fine collection of art. Really enjoyed the complimentary breakfast and free Prosecco in the evening. The front desk and all the staff are friendly and very helpful.
Wonderful three night stay here on my first trip to Florence. The hotel is in a convenient location close to places like the Duomo and the Galleria dell’Academia, as well as many good restaurants and cafes. The building might be old and dated but the room is very clean and the bed is comfortable. The staff are also friendly and helpful.
The hotel is built on a centuries old building in the heart of Florence. Definitely highlights the historic character. very walkable to dining options and all the important highlights of the city. The breakfast is excellent and the staff very nice and welcoming. Because of this being a very old building, the configuration of the rooms is not standard as you would expect with a newer building. However, it has been kept up well. Overall, Florence is expensive and the value for your money is not optimal at any place. If at all, stay here for the breakfast.
This hotel is very unique in its layout and close to everything you would do in Florence. This is my second stay and I was not disappointed for repeating my stay. I used their laundry service as well. Staff was receptive and very friendly! Convenience and charm made this a great stay.
Great boutique hotel near to everything in Florence. The room was great, huge high decorated wooden beam ceiling was so ausome. Art work everwhere and mirrors taller than me. Loved staying here, breakfast was just what we wanted too.
A beautiful, rustic setting in downtown Florence. Old style rooms with beautiful tiles in bathroom and original art. All the staff was excellent. Angelica was so thoughtful to share wonderful places to eat and acquainting us with our proximity to major landmarks.
