Exceptional staff. Everyone who works at this hotel is incredibly kind and helpful! They gave great recommendations for authentic dining and shopping. My room was beautiful, clean, and spacious as well. Also, the hotel is close to the main tourist attractions and only 15 minutes from the Firenze train station. I highly recommend.

Very good location with modern rooms. Stefano - the front desk manager is very helpful with reallocating me to another quieter room and giving me late check out when my flight is cancelled. I would come back to this hotel.

The team were great, and Angelo was especially helpful. I loved the location, you can easily head out, explore, and walk back to the hotel within minutes to rest. As far as city-break hotels go, this was right up there. The hotel’s design is also excellent.
