Fortunately I've spent only one night in this hotel (the last!) together with my girlfriend. I wonder how it can be possible to assign four stars to this bad hotel. First of all the external: the building is old and not maintained, it seems that since it was built it has not been handled. The reception is quite acceptable (but... More

The secret is the roof top deck. We stopped by stores and the market and bought supplies for picnic dinners. You can watch the sunset over Florence and eat your fill of meat, cheese, and wine! More

I am in the travel business since 1970, that means 41 years travelling a lot. I never been guest and that kind of hotel. Horrible in all aspects.

Breakast was dreadful - 1cereal only - all week, Orange and fruit squash- not juice. Poor choice of yoghurt,only natural on one occassion. Croissants tasted stale. Also... More

This hotel was booked thru Go Ahead Tours and it was comfortable and clean. It was in a good location... and seemed to be safe enough to walk out at night around the city. Loved the decor too... More

This is an old hotel and not real close to much. The bathroom tub did not have a shower curtain or door, so you're left to use the hand-held shower and hope you don't get too much water on the floor. The breakfast that was included left a lot to be desired. Not much selection of anything to eat. There... More
