"The location is extremely convenient - close, but not too close, to the train station and walkable to a major sites in Florence. This was my second stay here and it lived up to expectations. The breakfast room has a fantastic view of the Duomo and the city - plus an excellent buffet with very good coffee. One nice, unusual amenity at the hotel is a complimentary minibar that is restocked daily. "

"Staff was very friendly and the free breakfast was nice. The area (like most) was very noisy but that is to be expected & not to hotels fault. The location was great to all tourist destinations. The bus was less reliable than expected, which also was not the hotels fault. Took 3 bus times for it to come. Overall, hotel was good. "

"Spent a wonderful week in Florence. We had a small glitch at the end of our stay, which was not any fault of the hotel. Due to Florence marathon on Sunday and the 24 rail strike, which started on Saturday night, we had to extend our stay. The staff did everything they could to help us with alternate travel plans."
