We recently stayed at Hotel La Scaletta and absolutely loved the location at the end of Ponte Vecchio. We liked not having to walk far in the evening after dinner, and being so close to Ponte Vecchio. The hotel is beautiful inside, clean, the staff was always helpful and accommodating, the rooms simple but nice dark wood antique furniture. The... More

We chose the Purple Suite, and got a good low season rate. The suite is modern, very pleasant and well designed, and is on a lower level of the building compared to the level of reception and breakfast room. There are also a wide variety of other sizes and prices of rooms available. The location is very convenient to the... More

Very nice old hotel, very big, spacious room. Our room was actually a suite, big bathroom and two large rooms. We were on an upper floor and it was quiet, no street noise.

We arrived in Florence around 3pm by rail from Rome on Sunday June 5, to be greeted by the worst rainstorm I have ever seen in Europe. At the station, we were lucky to find a brave taxi driver who dared to drive in six inches of water. On arrival at the hotel, she drove up on the curb, to... More

Pleasantly surprised by this hotel, on it's cleanliness, classy & comfortable rooms, breakfast area and roof terrace. Commute to rooms may require several flights of internal staircases though. Would be also good to check with hotel in advance on parking and access roads if you self drive. More

We had a wonderful 3 day stay in Hotel La Scaletta, which is very centrally located, just next to the Pitti palace and at 100 metres from the ponte Vecchio. The hotel room was charming, clean and calm and staff was very welcoming and friendly. We definitely recommend to book a room with view on the Boboli gardens, which is... More
