The rooms were very comfortable and spacious, just as described, with a large bathroom. The service was incredibly friendly, providing cheerful tips for exploring Florence. The dining experience was excellent, setting me up nicely for sightseeing each day. The facilities were top-notch, especially the tranquility of the garden that I visited multiple times during my stay.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were very well furnished and comfortable, true to the pictures, and immaculately clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. However, the location required taking more cabs than expected, and the dining options were limited.
The hotel offers cozy rooms with fluffy towels and immaculate cleanliness. The staff is incredibly decent, friendly, and always willing to assist. The location is ideal for enjoying authentic Florence, close to good restaurants and within walking distance of Ponte Vecchio. The dining experience provides a good selection of hot and cold food.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were perfect and very comfortable, the service was excellent, the location was superb, and the dining experience was top-notch. The facilities were fantastic, making my vacation truly memorable.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was extremely clean and very modern and spacious. The staff, especially Filippo and the whole team, were incredibly attentive. The location was quiet yet close to lovely restaurants. However, the dining experience, while good, was a bit basic. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
The hotel is in a great location, just a 15-minute walk to the Ufizzi and the Duomo, offering easy access to the city's main sites. The rooms are very small, and the bathroom is tiny, making movement challenging, but the attentive staff, especially Filippo and the team, make the stay pleasant. The dining options provide delicious pasta but lack eco-friendly practices with many items packed in plastic.
