The staff was always available and friendly. The hotel is well located. You reach everything quickly by feet, a carrefour express is in the same street and also the Tram station from/to the airport is close and just straight ahead with 5 minutes. Only thing which I did not like was the breakfast. Real cappuccino etc is a must in Italy. I recommend to close the window because people outside are noisy. But at all I was satisfied.

There are many shops and restaurants near the hotel and everything in Firenze is walkable from here. The hotel is very nice and we enjoyed the breakfast, specially the different and fresh pastries every day. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0CBD568A855BF113AAA6D2D4CACA57440C76B1D61742671694310.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/933FC94F7938C0974EA644EADEA1069B20933F131742671694484.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A9C3381D749EAD44A82AFDF30011CCFF9B33E1BE1742671694493.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/AFCE4F4A34CA5A5158D26C892C0A26310D28B11F1742671694015.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Luz Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### William Aug 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice hotel with breakfast. ##### William Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carolina Apr 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice clean room with white linens and towels.

However there seemed to be an electrical issue in my room where the power turned on and off every couple of minutes. Other than that the breakfast was great and the location is awesome if you’re in Florence for a short amount of time. ##### Kaylee Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Laurie Sep 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Found this hotel while panic searching a hotel in Florence. I saw they had a room available with a view of the duomo. They were right. I was lucky enough to stay in a newer area of the hotel with a renovated room. The room was clean, pretty, and the bathroom was gorgeous. Be prepared to hand your key in to the front desk every time you leave the hotel (we thought that was strange). You need that key to run the electricity in the room so if you’re traveling when it’s super hot, know that the AC won’t be running and cooling the room down while you’re out and about. There’s an elevated patio area outside with a small bar inside that stays open till about midnight. Great option if you’re back from a long day of walking and need a drink with a slight view. The room had a small fridge (can’t fit much but helps for a few small bottles), a kettle to warm water for tea or coffee, and one AC unit z ##### Laurie Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Corona D'italia](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Hotel-Corona-DItalia.h799996.Hotel-Information) > > [Aurum Uffizi](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Fiorino.h2541615.Hotel-Information) > > [Plus Florence - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Plus-Florence-Hostel.h4125332.Hotel-Information) > > [Plaza Hotel Lucchesi](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Plaza-Hotel-Lucchesi.h8741.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Hotel Firenze Pitti Palace al Ponte Vecchio](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Hotel-Pitti-Palace-Al-Ponte-Vecchio.h17378.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Minerva](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Minerva.h582298.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Firenze](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Firenze.h1838796.Hotel-Information) > > [c-hotels Ambasciatori](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-C-Hotels-Ambasciatori.h1829.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel L'Orologio Firenze](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Hotel-LOrologio.h2970892.Hotel-Information) > > [The Social Hub Florence Lavagnini](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-The-Social-Hub-Florence-Lavagnini.h23198289.Hotel-Information) > > [The Market Urban Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-The-Market-Urban-Hotel.h108028.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Kraft](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Hotel-Kraft.h27795.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Galileo](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Hotel-Galileo.h187333.Hotel-Information) > > [Orto De Medici Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Orto-De-Medici-Hotel.h849839.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel David](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Hotel-David.h521254.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel La Scaletta Al Ponte Vecchio](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Hotel-La-Scaletta-Florence.h1604285.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Hotel Firenze City Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-BB-Hotel-Firenze-City-Center.h25189.Hotel-Information) > > [NH Firenze](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-NH-Firenze.h2387.Hotel-Information) > > [FH55 Grand Hotel Mediterraneo](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-FH55-Grand-Hotel-Mediterraneo.h70752.Hotel-Information) > > [AC Hotel Firenze by Marriott](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-AC-Hotel-Firenze-By-Marriott.h1593256.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Adriatico](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Adriatico.h21881.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Caravaggio](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Hotel-Caravaggio.h1030408.Hotel-Information) > > [Aurum Firenze](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Aurum-Firenze.h28961941.Hotel-Information) > > [25hours Hotel Florence Piazza San Paolino](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-25hours-Hotel-Piazza-San-Paolino.h70128094.Hotel-Information) > > [Arte' Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Arte-Boutique-Hotel.h35187673.Hotel-Information) > > [UNA Hotels Vittoria Firenze](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-UNAHOTELS-Vittoria-Firenze.h905634.Hotel-Information) > > [The Excelsior, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Florence](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-The-Excelsior.h24015.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Cora](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Villa-Cora.h22579.Hotel-Information) > > [The St. Regis Florence](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-The-St-Regis-Florence.h439.Hotel-Information)
