    The Superior King Room was beautifully decorated and comfortable. However, soundproofing needs improvement, as street noise was disruptive.

    Positive, I had a fantastic stay in the Standard King Room with my husband. The room was clean and stylish, just a block and a half from the Duomo. Loved the breakfast options, especially the delicious pastries. The staff were super helpful, making our trip even better! 😊

    Couldn't recommend more for a budget stay

    Gorgeous room, gorgeous bathroom, with a light, delicious dinner available at the bar that was perfect for a rainy night, and the helpful staff ensured a welcoming atmosphere.

    No issues here.

    charming atmosphere
    key attractions
    functional bathroom

    The location near key attractions made walking to sites smooth and enjoyable. The unique architecture provided a cozy, charming atmosphere that added to the overall experience.

    The bathroom facilities were less than functional. poor water pressure in the shower made it frustrating, and the shallow sink was not practical for filling up water bottles. The breakfast options lacked variety and didn’t cater to those wanting healthier choices, limited primarily to richer foods without any vegetables or cheese. The noise levels from nearby streets were also disruptive during the night, impacting sleep quality.

    delicious pastries

    It was just a balanced option for a flying visit in Florence with outstanding value. The breakfast had some of the best pastries that I ever tasted, making mornings special. Try to request a room away from the street to avoid noise at night.

    Single travelers welcome

    The staff at the reception were incredibly helpful making everything so much easier during my stay. I also loved the comfy bathtub in my room which was perfect for unwinding after a long day of exploring.

    It wasn't inexpensive but for what I experienced, it was acceptable.

    delicious breakfast
    helpful staff
    small bathroom
    poor air conditioning

    The location is unbeatable, just a quick walk to the Duomo and other major attractions. The room's design is contemporary and inviting, with a super comfy bed that ensured a good night’s sleep. Breakfast was a highlight, offering an extensive array of made-to-order items, from pastries to smoked salmon. Plus, they were really accommodating with dietary requests. The staff was exceptional. they guided us with directions and even booked museum tickets. However, I did find the bathroom a bit cramped, and the air conditioning struggled to keep the room cool during the heat of July. Also, navigating with luggage from the nearby train station was a bit challenging due to the narrow streets. Overall, I felt well taken care of during my stay.

    attentive staff
    street noise
    limited breakfast variety
    cramped reception

    The Superior King Room was beautifully designed, with a comfortable bed and a relaxing bathtub, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. The kindness of the staff stood out, particularly the helpfulness of Alina and Carlos. Enjoyable pre-set breakfast options included incredible bakery products, though a small buffet variety could enhance the experience. Noise from the street was occasionally noticeable at night, impacting sleep quality, and the reception area felt a bit cramped, limiting comfort when returning. The nearby laundry service was convenient and relatively inexpensive compared to hotel options.

    Perfect spot near the Duomo!

    My husband and I just loved our stay! The shower was fantastic, and the breakfast spread had some of the best pastries we've ever tasted. Located so close to the Galleria was a major plus! Just a heads up, the walls were a bit thin so we heard some noise. The bar area was chill, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.

    Located just minutes from the Duomo, the hotel boasts a cozy atmosphere and attentive service. Breakfast was exceptional with a variety of fresh, made-to-order options. The room itself was spacious and well-kept, though the street noise was sometimes noticeable at night.
