“Nice vintage building, restored in a very interesting way. Staff is friendly and kind, service is good, rooms are comfortable, essential and very cleaned. Breakfast is superlative, especially the continental one. Relax area is well conceived, full of space and with amazing vintage chairs.”
“Good price with breakfast included, lovely and nice design hotel, the room is much bigger than I thought with amazing view of Tuscany mountains and private balcony. The reception is very helpful and friendly! Good location overall, not in middle of city centre but only 1.5km away and close to supermarkets, bus stops and tram”
“This hotel is truly incredible. The room is comfortable, the balcony is clean, and the front desk staff are extremely friendly. The highlight is definitely the breakfast, you can see the staff constantly checking and refilling the food, which shows how much care they put into it. The location is also quite convenient, and there are two amazing pizza places nearby. When you’re tired, you can just grab a takeaway pizza and enjoy it on your balcony, it’s such a great experience. I highly recommend staying here to enjoy your Florence holiday.”
“The Breakfast is worth every cent of your hotel stays. A fresh selection of pastries and fruit along with Bacon and eggs. Minutes away from every tourist spot. Walkable but the tram easily accessible. Elevator makes accessibility easy. Each floor also has a kitchen where you can store food in Fridge, stove top burners, microwaves, pots, pans, plates and cutlery in each kitchen. 2 min walk to local grocery store.”
