This hotel was dirty! The lobby is misleading. Our room was dirty - dead bugs on the walls, black mold in the shower, hair in the bathroom. The shower was broken so it was for someone under 5ft tall. Wifi did not work in our room. When we complained to the front desk the response we received was "there's nothing... More

The Athenaeum Hotel hit all the marks for our recent trip to Florence. The price was right, the location was ideal (close to the Florence train station, and about a 10 minute walk from the Duomo) and the rooms clean and comfortable. For our first time in Florence it was perfect. They serve an ample breakfast with fruit juices, pastries,... More

We booked 3 nights here as a sudden last-minute trip and we were very happy with our choice. This hotel is ideal - clean and comfortable, with good reception staff and a decent, speedy breakfast. The bed was wonderfully comfortable and the bathroom, though quite small, was absolutely fine. On a visit where most time is spent out and about,... More

(my conference happened to be in the basement room, so double-easy. breakfast was fine. the restaurant wasn't open when i was there, and i didn't find any really good restaurants within immediate walking distance (though there are many in florence). but it's an easy run...

It is a pleasure to recommend this nice hotel to visitors who demand best possible value for their money. This comfort hotel is situated quite close to almost all central attractions, not to mention shopping places. Notable is the first class service you get from the always kind, helpful and polite staff. Compared with many other Italian 4 star hotels... More

Very clean, friendly staff at front desk, walking distance to major attractions such as the Statue of David, the Cathedral of Florence and the Uffizi Gallery. What mroe can I say? Would stay there again. Close to the markets, Santa Novella Station and nice restaurants. Garage for cars right on location, which is very handy.

The hotel was very close to the Gonzaga in Florence campus which worked well for our trip. The hotel was clean and the front desk was always cheerful and happy. The room was clean but small and a bit cramped for 2 people for a week. If you like hard beds and hard pillows, then this is the place. Unfortunately,... More
