Excellent

The staff were very friendly and helpful, the room was beautiful and the restaurant on the roof had a fantastic view and delicious food as well. We would happily stay here again.
The room was excellent however the only thing at times didnt work out was the walls are thin so you can hear your neighbors - additionally the wifi was super slow only recommendation I would have is to have better internet service
The room was very clean and very nice. The building was not handicap accessible and it was an older building, so it was problematic. The biggest problem was the customer service, which was mediocre at best. Even though the hotel room was very nice, I would not recommend this place as I found the staff to be rude and dismissive.

Just ok
The luxury room we booked was nice but you have to walk up stairs no elevator for that type of room so I had to switch rooms outside same floor. Wasn’t a fan of that. And had a really bad ant problem where everyday I come back to my room in Florence they sprayed bug spray and it lingered all day and night everyday for 5 days. Room was big for the family. But I wound not come back here.
Excellent location, well appointed nice rooms and spacious, good bathroom, walkable to all key places to visit in Florence, safe. Great breakfast buffet and rooftop terrace with drinks. Great gelato place right at the hotel. Location couldn't be better. Right next to Ponte Vecchio and walkable to all key attractions
Great location for quick walk to all attractions and also very quiet for times of rest. The rooftop terrace is fantastic food and service for a special experience.
Hotel was very nice! Unusual setup like last Hotel in Rome, comfortable and staff very accommodating. The restaurant on the roof was delightful and the location very central to shops and eateries.
The hotel is in a great location. They charged us a cash only 7 euro per person per night tourist fee. When we went to our 2nd hotel we were told the tourist fee is only 6 euro per person per night and is payable by cash or charge. The room had an "odd odor" almost like cat urine and while the ground floor was nice due to the stairs and the heat, the cleaning staff did not seem to care about guests who were staying close to their cleaning closet as they were slamming doors and supplies around at 0700. The room was extremely comfortable and the washrooms were well kept. Overall an average experience for a great location.
The staff, room, lobby and location were exceptionally fabulous. Near everything and even had a roof top dining area with excellent food and gorgeous views of the city. The staff were friendly, super helpful, knowledgeable and went the extra mile for us. We couldn’t have been happier!
Although the lobby is gorgeous, it’s very confusing trying to find your room. There are staircases with very little instruction as to which way to go. The air conditioning in our room did not work the first night and it had been in the 90s during the day. It took them until 5 o’clock to fix the air conditioning the next day. Unfortunately, the other member of my party had been sick in bed all day sweltering.
The location is fabulous. Breakfast was decent.
Incredible property and amenities were on point, asked for a wheelchair accessible room and it was very well suited for someone using a manual wheelchair wanting to visit this beautiful city
