my parents had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Florence, just steps away from the Duomo — the location couldn’t be better! The rooms are surprisingly spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready with a smile. And the cappuccino at breakfast was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Firenze.

Two negative points were the amount of stairs, hotel situated on 3rd floor with no lift and the bathroom was shared. However, the building is 500 yrs old and interior is beautiful. Staff very friendly and informative. As a solo female traveler I wanted to be in the city centre so the negatives were a trade off for safety and proximity to the city. I would defiantly stay again but maybe bring a smaller case :)

Nice hotel, with a few small drawbacks

Lovely hotel, in a good location. Only one bathroom on the floor i was on which made things awkward at times. There was often a loud noise from a boiler or something that was one room away from mine that woke me up during the night several times, but otherwise a good experience.

At the heart of Florence, this hotel is less than a 15-minute walk from all the major museums. It's close to shops, dining, and the Piazza della Signoria, as well as the Duomo. The hotel itself is clean and friendly looking. We had a large room with shower (no toilet) for 4 people, which worked well. The temperature each day there was about 93F/34C, so we took multiple cool showers each day. However, there were three beds (a double and two singles) for the four of us, and only two fans (no a/c). When I asked about another fan, the afternoon staff attendant said that they didn't have any more. Given summer temperatures and no a/c, they should have extra fans. Also, when I told him how hot one of our fans got on the first night, he got very defensive and insisted that no one had ever complained about that before (as if it were our fault). There was a nice coffee area with a good coffee machine (cappuccino, espresso, hot chocolate, etc.) that was free and self-service in the morning. There was also a nice pitcher of a refreshing infusion (lemon grass, I think) that was good. We took advantage of both of these things.

The location was the only redeeming part of this hotel. Our room has no air conditioning and the manager was unwilling to do anything about it. We took a reading one evening and it was 101.8F in our room. We decided to sit a bit in their reception area because they had a small AC unit there. While we were there the manager turned it off because he wanted to “save energy” whilst sitting in his office with an AC blasting. Don’t stay here.

I never forget this trip!

I was in Florence for a week studying. and I had to find a place that was both comfortable and affordable. I was a little nervous about the shared bathroom situation. but there was two on my floor and it wasn't an issue at all really. the people who work here were always friendly and helpful. I really have no issues. I had an awesome stay.

I absolutely LOVED IT. It’s located at the second floor of this building or palace. Upon arrival, you KNOW it will be classic, detailed chic…Elegant with details. I loved my bedroom and their bathrooms!!! Thank you Vincenzo for your warm and friendly welcoming. He made sure I was ok at all times. You have coffee and tea in the kitchen area. It’s close to everything since it’s centered in the city.

What was not mentioned was the property is 500 years old and a former home of the Medici family. Like staying in a palace. For example 15 ft timbered ceilings, large windows withy what looked like original hardware. Definitely a remarkable facility. It is on the second / third floors with no elevator.

Staff were really friendly and check in was smooth. Details were sent on how to find the property which was a bit complicated only thing missing was that you needed to ring doorbell before you got keys ( we worked it out) Really central for Florence, great restaurants nearby. Downside 4 flights of stone steps and no lift also shared toilet and the shower is literally a cubicle in corner of room

Beautiful Firenze.

Great old property and the staff were wonderful. The location was superb, walking distance to central Firenze. You could see the Duomo lit up at night from our window! My only criticism is that the air conditioning was not that affective in the building. But it is to be expected in these old buildings. Great hotel though, would highly recommend.
