“Staying here means experiencing Florence from a particularly charming vantage point, a family-owned building with a 700-year history near the Medici Chapels. The hotel's appeal lies in its authentic Florentine character, from vintage decor to local specialties served at breakfast, and its location close to major attractions and the train station. I found it a tranquil base from which to enjoy the city.”

great location helpful staff small room unwelcoming receptionist
The hotel had a great location, just a short walk from the train station and the main square. The staff were helpful, and they offered tea and coffee in the room.
My room was small and a bit old. I noticed the receptionist was not particularly cute when I checked in. That was disappointing!
