Wow! Loved this place. Staff was so helpful, breakfast buffet was out of this world, dinners were really nice, and room (suite) was really comfortable. The garden area is pretty and quiet (except for the dulcet sound of the bells from the Duomo. Dolce vita!). The pool is small, but we weren’t there to swim, and pools are hard to find period in Europe. Close to all of the sites (walking distance). Didn’t try the spa, but that probably adds to the experience. Yeah, I’d go back for sure.

Absolutely beautiful property. From the spacious rooms to the stunning courtyard and not to mention the relaxing spa/pool facilities. Its proximity to a lot of sights and restaurants was really good. And of course the staff were so very helpful and attentive. Special thanks to Camillia for all her care and service to our group. Love, love, love this little sanctuary. Out of our three hotels we stayed at, this was our most favourite. Would not hesitate to come back for future Florence trips! Thank you! 🙏

Great property in a fantastic location to walk the streets of Florence. Courtyard is gorgeous for drinks and breakfast and small Spa a plus. Not on the prettiest of streets but not really an issue as you can find them only minutes away. Overall a great stay and would recommend.

A unique boutique hotel experience

I did tons of research before Florence. This hotel was highly rated + a good price + an amazing location, so we went for it! I so wanted to LOVE it but hated it at first and then it grew on me. I have listed all the pro's & cons below and the pros far outweigh the cons. FYI - this is based on our room, the Bruneschelli Suite, room 308. Pros: * Very warm & friendly staff * Amazing breakfast both hot & cold selections - eggs, bacon, breads, pastries, yogurts - everything you could want! Plus fabulous cappuccino! * They do a teatime with pastries, cakes & tea @ 5pm which is a nice pick me up after a long day of sightseeing. * Great location: 5-minute walk to SMN train & the Duomo * Great water pressure in shower, water gets nice & hot * Super comfortable bed! * BEAUTIFUL view of Duomo & hotel gardens * Plenty of closet space w/hangers & shelves * Safe & mini-fridge in the room Cons: * In the Bruneschelli Suite, there are VERY steep stairs (like 10 or so) leading up to bedroom. This was NOT mentioned in room description online. * NO bathroom upstairs so if you have to go in the middle of the night…good luck! * Thermostat is hard to work, room gets very warm * There is no real lobby in the hotel, just a couch by the front door.
