Top University of Florence Hotel Reviews

Il Malaspina

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location, good breakfast, nice facilities and excellent customer service."

The Social Hub Florence Belfiore

10/10 Excellent

"A little walk from the city center, but an amazing space with lots of amenities, clean rooms and tons of great vibes"

Hotel La Fortezza

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here in Feb of 2025 and loved it then for location and service. The rooms have been refurbished and so this latest stay was quite upscale. Great shower! Fabulous buffet breakfast! Helpful front desk staff."

Hotel Orto de’ Medici

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay at this hotel overall, especially because of its convenient location and the very pleasant and helpful staff. The buffet breakfast offered a great selection, with plenty of choices to start the day. We stayed in a Junior Suite with four adults, and the room was spacious enough to accommodate all of us comfortably, which was a definite plus. There were, however, a couple of disappointments. Unfortunately, the bed was extremely hard and uncomfortable, which made it difficult to get a good night’s sleep. We also noticed that the hotel advertises a bottle of sparkling wine daily. Since we stayed for four nights, we expected this amenity to be replenished, but we received only one bottle during our entire stay. After we enjoyed the bottle, it was left in the ice container, where the ice eventually melted, and it was never replenished or removed. Overall, the location, breakfast, spacious suite, and wonderful staff were definite positives. With a little more attention to the comfort of the beds and the follow-through on advertised amenities, this could have been an excellent stay."

Grand Hotel Baglioni

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel within walking distance of the historic centre of Florence. Helpful and knowledgeable staff. Amazing views from the rooftop bar/ restaurant. Thank you"

Hotel Paris

8/10 Good

"It was a nice comfortable room for our last night in Florence"

Bernini Palace

10/10 Excellent

"We loved everything about this hotel. They had world class service from morning to night. We had a wonderful introduction to the hotel and a personal escort to our room. The breakfast was lovely, with a nice selection of premium products, and a beautiful dining room with china. We highly recommend Hotel Bernini, it was the perfect hotel in a perfect location."

The Hoxton, Florence

10/10 Excellent

"Our second time here…love this hotel…nice quiet neighborhood but close enough to walk to everything. The staff is so friendly and helpful. Francesco in Alesso restaurant was so delightful. Will definitely go back highly recommend"

Hotel Machiavelli Palace

8/10 Good

"A very comfortable bed although the bedroom was basic. The breakfast was excellent and the staff were helpful. Just 5 minutes from the station. Loved the roof top bar (one of the reasons for choosing this hotel) but a little on the expensive side. Great location for visiting the sites of Florence."
