The Torre Guelph has an interesting building and a very good location. Breakfast was excellent. We enjoyed the hot food and cappuccinos. Unfortunately it's very noisy in that neighbourhood and the windows don't have screens in them to keep out mosquitos. A welcoming front desk would have added a human element to our stay. We had very little contact with any staff other than at breakfast.

Finding the place was difficult if you are arriving by car and the parking cost was more than what is shown on Hotels.com Great location for most of the historic sites.

Staff were lovely, roof terrace was amazing and the rooms have stunning high ceilings and tiled floors. Its right by the Ponte Vecchio on a quiet street. Such a charming hotel, would definitely stay again. Just to flag that if you're going for the room with the private terrace, note that there are narrow stairs inside the door leadjng up to the bedroom so you will need to get your luggage up stairs.

Mixed feelings

To start , excellent position of hotel. Family run , good communication. I was recommended by a friend. I think they must have had a lovely room. We were in 102. On arrival the heater was on, it had been a hot day and I couldn’t breathe. Tried to open a window but they were sealed shut, you couldn’t see through them due to shutters which were also screwed down. At 11pm we had the bedroom door open for an hour to try to get some air through. Had good nights sleep. The hotel looks nothing like the photos. It’s tired. Breakfast was fine, be careful of the passive aggressive waitress. If she doesn’t think you need something, everyone knows about it. The hotel isn’t 4 star. 3 star at best. I wouldn’t stay again in case I was put into room 102! I would have loved one of the rooms advertised. I could have asked for a swap but my husband is very passive and hates any sort of complaint. Read the trip advisor reviews. Dig deep. If you don’t care about where you lay your head , this is a fantastic hotel for position.

The room decor was a little old fashioned and the sheets were not especially nice, but bathroom was modern and spotless. The location really can't be beat and the view from the tower was absolutely amazing. The breakfast was fantastic, one of the best hotel breakfasts I've had. We would absolutely stay there again.
