Travellers' Choice
A charming Hotel with character, where paying attention to your every need, and the desire to make you happy, is not just our work, but our very real pleasure. For us, clients are never just 'numbers', but real people who we want to feel special, because your satisfaction is the greatest gift we could receive. There are many reasons to travel, but that which makes every trip truly special are the emotions that it evokes, which become the souvenir that you carry forever in your heart, not just of the fantastic places you have visited, but also of the people, who in their own small way have contributed to making every moment perfect and unforgettable.

Great location, very close to the famous Ponte Vecchio. Also has some great price especially for the location. Don’t miss the rooftop for a photo op! The Deluxe room on the first floor was huge with a big bathroom. It’s a hotel I would recommend.

The hotel is located five minutes on the far side of the Ponte Vecchio from the main pedestrian area of Florence, so it's only ten minutes on foot to the Uffizi, fifteen to the Duomo. It's nice to stay in that somewhat more normal part of town, Santo Spirito--more normal, but still right next to the Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens. The service was excellent and the rooms very good. The hotel is in an old palazzo, and has some of that residual charm (and quirkiness) but the rooms and bathrooms are completely modern and comfortable. Don't miss the rooftop area where you can take your morning coffee or get a drink at night--amazing 360 views of the city. But do be aware that you will have to climb a very long set of (magnificent) stairs to get to your room, though a staff member will carry your luggage.

We had a really nice stay for three days with small children, parents and grandparents at this hotel in Florence. The hotel building is really amazing, the rooms are clean and comfy, and the ambiance makes you feel a part of the history. Breakfast was awesome and so was WiFi.

Large quiet rooms in the centre of sites. Extremely helpful staff! I’m in a wheelchair but the room was accessible. A couple of steps to get into the hotel - staff were very accommodating when I needed assistance. Incredible view from restaurant and bar on rooftop

Love the location and views from the rooftop! The breakfast is delicious and abundant! The room was quiet for such a central location. All of the sites of interest were convenient and walkable - even the train station. We stayed seven nights and look forward to returning.

Amazing location near Ponte Veccio, elegant breakfast with a view, comfortable room and quiet sleep. No parking :( would prefer to have a reception in the B&B building. Tip from hotel - you can take a bus and in 5 min will arrive at the bottom of sightseeing place - piezzake Michelangelo

Central location for sights but very busy area. Nice room was a bit small. Would have liked charging ports that didn’t require a key to keep going. Very nice breakfast, and a lovely bar/restaurant/breakfast area overlooking Boboli gardens. The restaurant had very good food and the bar made a perfect martini.

The reception staff were very helpful in booking excursions for us, getting us anything we needed, recommending eateries or things to do. They booked us reservations and helped us with transportation. They were very knowledgeable and kind. Our room and bathroom were very clean and spacious. The shower had a rainfall head which was nice. The buffet breakfast was large and delicious. Our only minor negative was the occasional smell of cigarette smoke, either coming from the restaurant above us, or through the vent. We weren't sure. It did not deter us from our lovely stay.
