My girlfriend and I stayed for 3 nights and loved our room, the rustic Tuscan decor and the family who run the hotel are so hospitable and friendly, we didn't want to leave! The location is so central in Florence, recommend very highly! ##### Kelvyn Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter Oct 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel is in a building with a hostel and other hotels. But the lift takes you to a beautifully old-fashioned hotel on the top floor without any noise from lower down. The breakfast room is particularly attractive, with paintings and a view to the Cathedral and Palazzo Vecchio. Breakfast was great too. The staff couldn't have been more helpful (we much appreciated the umbrella they lent us!) ##### Peter Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Victor Jun 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities nice place ##### Victor Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### James Apr 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort This hotel was in a very safe location.

The ground level has a bar with karaoke, but the activity dies down by 11pm or so. Even in full swing, the sounds faded away by the time I got upstairs - a benefit to the old style of construction. The room was spotless and well maintained during my stay. The hotel is not a 4 star hotel with pool, concierge, workout room, etc. but I didn't want that. I don't go to Firenze to be entertained at a resort-like compound. I want a place to sleep, wash up, and turnaround to hit the town again. The family that runs it is very friendly and always (24hrs a day) available to let you in - as your room key does not open the front door, it is manned by a family member at all times. At first, I thought that was inefficient, but I am sure it is done for security reasons. If what you are looking for is a clean room, friendly staff, in a simple but clean and well-maintained hotel that is 5 minutes from rail and in the midst of the old section of the city, this is the place for you. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. ##### Claudio Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2022 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roberth May 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Muito bom O Sr Rosário nós recebeu e foi muito amigável e rápido.

The couple who run it are extremely nice and helpful (as we checked out, they even offered my kids a brioche). It is 5-10 minutes walk from the Duomo, 5 mn from the train station. There are trattoria, fruit vendors, pasticerrias (for fresh breakfast items and sandwiches) on the street and the adjacent one. We could see the Duomo from our room. I felt totally safe leaving computers and some valuables in the room. You do need to walk up 4 flights of stairs, and the AC was not working in the room (but I didn't ask to get it fixed, it was fine without it). I'd definitely stay there again! ##### Michele Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2019 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jun 30, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff was very friendly and helpful during checkin/checkout.
