Very friendly staff, smooth coordination for check-in and luggage storage after check-out. Great room, which we really liked. The breakfast selection could be a bit larger, but it's sufficient for a good start of the day. The location is perfect for exploring the city. We’d love to come back.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location couldn’t be better, just a short walk from the train station and within easy reach of all the main tourist attractions, including the Duomo and Uffizi Gallery. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready with a smile and great recommendations. The breakfast was also a highlight, with a wide variety of fresh and delicious options to start the day right.

We LOVED this property. For US/CA tourists, please consider this location for your stay. It was very secure, the beds are firm, there is good water pressure, and the staff went out of their way to accommodate breakfast and luggage storage. Very good experience.

This location in Florence made it easy to access trains, the main square and the River. All our amazing restaurant options were within 5 min. The staff cooked a full breakfast with a positive attitude. My college age son and I had an amazing time.

Close to train able to walk in a few minutes. Busy street quaint with many restaurants. Small hotel with 10 rooms on 3 rd floor of a building. Blends in with the facade of nearby stores and places to stay.
