The hotel was clean and the staff very helpful with restaurant suggestions as well as places to visit.
Not a new shiny place but very real and authentic.
Would recommend.
Good location and great staff. The hair dryer lasted 5 minutes and failed and the coffee maker in the lobby was out of order but aside from that, This was a sufficient hotel doe the price.
All in all- it was exactly what we needed- a nice room to stay in for our single night in Florence. The location is great with the bridges only about a 5 minute walk away. The rooms are a bit on the small side, but the showers were large and the rooms were clean. The staff are very kind and helpful.
Great staff and beautiful room with a huge balcony. The hotel is perfectly situated within the city center, so everything is accessible. We were able to do a very late check in with no issue, and the staff remained very accommodating and helpful throughout the entire stay. Will absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone who will be visiting Florence.
A small hotel in a great location. The room was simple, clean, comfortable, and close to everything, making it easy to explore Florence on foot. Roberto, who is at the front desk is kind, welcoming and extremely helpful, taking the time to suggest must see places on a map. My son and I enjoyed our stay.
Very clean, spacious, and modern room and bathroom with excellent air conditioning. The location was perfect—less than a 10-minute walk to the main attractions. The entrance is small and requires stairs, but the staff kindly helped with our luggage.
A special thank you to Aldo, who was exceptionally helpful, friendly, and welcoming. He went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. His kindness and professionalism really made our stay more enjoyable. Andre was also very nice and helpful.
We were a party of three, and the double bed was larger than a typical U.S. double. We also appreciated the complimentary bottle of water each day. Overall, a wonderful stay!
The staff were very kind and helpful. Room was clean and air conditioning works very well. Hotel is a quick 12 min walk away from all major tourist sites and the train station.
The property was in the perfect location for exploring the city. The air conditioning and room size were great. The man in charge is awesome as well. There are little amenities here and the stairs are daunting but otherwise it’s a great budget stay!
Had a great stay here! The hotel is barebones but the location is amazing. Everything is a 10 minute walk away. The AC was perfect and the staff was amazing, so kind and helpful. The rooms are small but clean and well maintained, there are not any amenities but if you are looking for nice clean hotel so you can explore Florence this is a perfect choice!
Loved our stay here! The location is amazing, walking distance to EVERYTHING. The staff is so incredible, helped us get our very heavy luggage up the stairs, provided a map and spent time with us marking out all the best places to go nearby. It is also a great value for the money, I would definitely stay here again.
Staff was extremely helpful, including holding luggage after check-out until later in the day and arranging transportation to the train station. Beds were comfortable. Be prepared to carry your luggage up a flight of stairs to reception upon arrival. After hours arrival was easy to coordinate. Had three rooms for our party - one of the rooms did not have very good AC, while the other two it was fine.

Great staff and location for a budget friendly hotel. The rooms are basic, small but very clean. The only negative is the long stairs leading from the street to the front desk and then from the front desk to the rooms. But the location is good and the staff is helpful and friendly
Hotel Esperanza was a great location in Florence and was very close to the main tourist attractions. The owner and staff were very nice and considerate. He communicated well about the property, town, and gave us recommendations to also visit. Definitely visit My Bakery for delicious treats that are freshly made, Novella Osteria Toscana and its neighbor restaurant were both delicious and authentic with friendly and attentive service.
The only thing was that there was no elevator and there were many stairs to get to my room. But again, the staff helped my family and me as much as they could to make it easier on us.
Hotel Esperanza had a great location, staff, air-conditioned room, amenities and accommodations.
I definitely recommend this hotel if you are in the Florence area.
