We spent two nights at the Giglio and we were pleased with our choice. The rooms were spacious and clean, as well as nicely appointed. Breakfast was of the continental variety and was perfectly fine. You should be aware that the hotel is around a 10-15 minute walk from the Duomo (which you come to by walking straight down Via... more

We stayed at Hotel Giglio during a driving trip of northern Italy and France. It was a bit tricky to find but once inside it is a very warm and cosy hotel with all the facilities you would expect in this price range. The best thing, however, is wonderful service from Marco and Roberto and their families and staff. We... more

Found this hotel via Tripadvisor, and all I can say is that I agree with everyone else that this is a lovely hotel to stay at. The owners & staff are very friendly and will help you with anything from finding out times of trains, buses etc. to recommending restaurants and sites to visit. They even gave us a lift... more

We stayed for 2 nights in Florence and booked here based on feedback posted on TripAdvisor. Our stay was just as positive - fantastic breakfast spreads each morning and very helpful service from Marco. We phoned ahead and he arranged museum reservations for us without charging extra, and also arranged for our rental car to be registered with the city... more

It is a bit unusual when you arrive to the hotel since it's located on the second floor, but once you enter, it is a wonderful home away from home hotel. I would recommend a cab from the train station to the hotel when you arrive as we were a bit warm after walking about 20 minutes with our suitcases.... more

We just got back from an 18-day trip to Italy, and, of the six hotels we stayed at, this was our favorite hotel! As other reviewers have mentioned, it's a bit odd when you arrive to the hotel since it's located on the second floor, but once you enter, it's a beautiful, lovely hotel that is more like a small... more

We were on a whirlwind one night stop in Florence. We arrived early (to try to get the most out of our day). Although our room wasn't ready, we were allowed to leave our bags and they were delivered to our room for us! We also received a complimentary beverage upon check in and a recommendation for a local pizza... more

The best hotel I have ever stayed in. That statement says it all really! The room was very spacious, bathroom massive with whirlpool bath as well! Breakfast was sublime, could not be bettered. Location was just outside the centre, less than 15 minute walk to the Duomo, around five minute walk to the Accademia for the David statue. Free wireless... more

The hotel is nice and clean. The staff is very helpful. The walls in the rooms are very thin. You can hear everyone walking in the hall way or talking in their rooms. The breakfast was very good! (loved the fruit salad). The hotel is on the second floor. If you have heavy luggage there is an antique lift in... more
