Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were nice and comfortable, and the painted ceiling added a magnificent touch to the decor. The location was superb, right in the heart of Florence with easy access to the water, cathedral, and fantastic restaurants. The service was generally friendly and helpful, although there was a brief encounter with a less enthusiastic staff member. The dining experience was very satisfying, especially in the beautiful outdoor courtyard. Overall, a great choice for a stay in Florence.
The hotel has a nice medieval-style decor, situated in a great location right off the bar. The rooms seemed better suited for groups of 3 or more, but it took a while for them to heat up. The staff was generally friendly, with some exceptions, making certain interactions less pleasant. The location was fantastic, close to all the main attractions, perfect for sightseeing. The dining experience had some highs and lows but was overall enjoyable.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant. The rooms were cozy and clean, offering a view of the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella. The location was ideal, close to the railway station, shopping areas, and major attractions. However, the rooftop setting was unexpected. The service provided by the staff was superb, with a mix of wonderful waiter and helpful individuals. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of delicious food choices. The facilities were well-maintained, and the overall value for money was decent.
This hotel is a perfect blend of charm and convenience. The rooms strike a balance between spaciousness and warmth, making each morning a delight. The service is top-notch with a level of friendliness that goes above and beyond. The location is ideal, being just a stone's throw away from key attractions. The dining options may not wow everyone, but the overall experience is fulfilling.
The hotel is conveniently located near Firenze Santa Maria Novella train station, making it easy to explore the city’s attractions on foot. The rooms offer a beautiful view of the Santa Maria Church and hills, although the layout could be improved. The service was warm and welcoming, with staff eager to assist with luggage storage and sightseeing recommendations. The dining options were decent, served in a tranquil inner yard. The neighborhood may be bustling with activity but lacks uniqueness.
My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were wonderful, spacious, and super clean, providing a comfortable experience. However, the hotel itself seemed extremely old and tired, especially with open windows that affected my rest after a long flight. The location was convenient but had its drawbacks with an old building feel. The service, on the other hand, was a mix of polite and unfriendly encounters, with some staff being helpful and others not so much. The dining experience was good overall, offering tasty options and a cute courtyard. Despite some drawbacks, the hotel managed to offer a decent experience overall.
