Staff service was excellent. Good amenities within the hotel room. Breakfast was excellent with a varied selection of cereals, fruit and pastries. This hotel is perfect for those who want to see the main attractions within Florence, almost everything is within walking distance. I would highly recommend it.

Great location, staff and good breakfast. Hotel with a nice lobby. I thought the rooms could be a little more updated. I stayed in a connecting room which was good, but one of the bathrooms had a shower over a small bathtub that was very high and slippery. An older person could EASILY get into a SERIOUS INJURY. There is no sense in having that type of bathtub in a room.

Great hotel and super friendly and professional staff, throughout the days. The breakfast selections could use more variety. The VIP option of Expedia is effectively meaningless. That’s becoming a common feature of all “VIP” hotels on Expedia. But the hotel is great.

We loved this hotel! From the moment we walked into its gorgeous lobby and were greeted by their welcoming staff, we knew we had made an excellent choice! The room was large (by European standards) bedding comfy, very clean, very quiet and totally walkable to Ufuzzi Gallery, Ponte Vecchio Bridge, and all the shopping and delicious restaurants you could possibly hope for. We loved our three day stay and enjoyed the delicious breakfast every morning, and relaxing in the beautiful lobby with comfy chairs and bar service in the evening. Taxi cab services are right outside the door (we never waited longer than 4 minutes) Rooms are cleaned daily with fresh towels and then down service in the evening. Can’t say enough about the helpful staff, who were so friendly and knowledgeable about great places nearby to eat!
