They tell you when you head to Italy, bring your walking shoes and be ready to climb a lot of stairs. Well, staying at the Torre Guelfa we were in for a treat as the hotel has its own private bell tower that once you make your way up the top gives the best panoramic view of Florence. The charming hotel was comfortable and offered a wonderful buffet breakfast. Be sure to verify what the view is for your room because it is a historic building - but that might add to the charm of your visit. It is in walking distance to many of the major attractions while on a quieter street. We visited over the winter holidays and our trip was all the more wonderful because we stayed here in Florence.

General thought it was decent. I recall a modern bathroom in the photos but my room had a much older style. Staff was great. Breakfast was so-so; I would recommend better/fresh pastries.

Loved the location, the rooftop views and the breakfast. 10/10 for those for sure. The breakfast attendant was so amazing- she remembered what we ordered and was a very bright light each morning. Our room, 309, was a bit dark and had no mirror. There was a mirror in the bathroom of course. Ironically there were so many mirrors everywhere but none in our room. We were able to even walk to the train station which was very easy and doable. Beautiful location. Would recommend.

This hotel was beautiful, hands down one of our favourites of the trip! The highlight if this hotel has to be the bell tower! With a terrace and bell tower serving drinks in the evening with panoramic views of Florence you can’t go wrong! The staff were polite and welcoming ensuring we had directions for our time in Florence. The hotel had period features which added to its character. The room we stayed in had high ceilings and four post bed and had a separate room with a sofa lounge area and a bathroom. The room was spotless and quiet in the evenings. Breakfast was lovely the pastry options were different everyday and were fresh. They also had a continental option. We will definitely be returning.
