Florence Gem
Hotel is in a great location next to Florence Central train station. Perfect for people who are travelling through Italy like we were. Rooms were spacious and kept very clean. Bed comfortable and bathroom large enough with great shower cubicle. Breakfast was good and the service very prompt. Staff were very helpful and informative. Lovely rear breakfast garden. Overall an excellent place to stay for a few nights for travelling guests.

Hotel try to ask for unreasonable price when we try to extend another 2 nights, we managed a better hotel with cheaper rate just 280 m away The room was very small and looks like an ancient building. Although it is very near train station
