Hotel Laurus al Duomo - Florence

Perfetto. This was my third stay here. Delicious breakfast with magnificent view of the Duomo from the restaurant balcony.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We were very pleased with the location and rooms. The bathrooms were great and the breakfast/restaurant balcony had a lovely view of the Duomo, which was just within walking distance. The only downside was a slightly rude set of front desk workers. Overall, we had a very nice stay.

Great hotel in a great spot. Easy walk to all of Florence's must sees. Great terrace bar and super helpful staff

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Great location right near the Duomo. Room was fairly clean, nothing fancy but ok (kind of more dorm-like than a hotel room). However it was tiny and the bed was really hard. Not a huge deal since you spend more time sightseeing anyway. If you want something a bit nicer will need to spend a bit more - good for the price.

This is a 4+ star hotel. A bigger bath room than expected via European standards. Great staff and service. Comfortable rooms and ammenities. Most importantly, the location is perfect. You will never be far from your room if you stay at this hotel; you will be in the center of it all!

We were really pleased with this hotel. Location was great! Our room was really comfortable and very spacious, also the bathroom was really good size and clean, so we were really please with that because the bathroom in our hotel in Rome was tiny. The Staff at the Duomo were really friendly and willing to answer any question we had.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel was excellent and could not have been better, and the front-desk staff were very helpful. The room was a little dated for a four-star. We also had a premium room with a King and a view, so I was surprised by the hard bed. It was the least comfortable bed in a three-week vacation in Southern Europe!

Location within walking distance from rail station and the Duomo Cathedral. Bathroom was luxurious in size with a full size soaker tub - rare find in our travel in Italy. Was like a spa - heated towel rack and even bath slippers. Room was good size and very clean. Hotel terrace was a million dollar view of the Duomo - beautiful at night. Were privileged […] to a free wine tasting on the terrace which was a nice touch. Hotel staff were very helpful. Read more

Beautiful property, excellent location, and friendly staff. Beds were comfortable, rooms were well maintained and very clean. Located steps away from the Duomo. Lots of surrounding shopping, banks, and restaurants. Hotel staff was very friendly and accommodating. Definitely recommended.

We stayed for 3 nights and loved the hotel. The rooms are modern and clean, the staff is friendly, and the location can't be beat. Just steps to the Duomo and all major sights accessible by foot. The train station SMN is 5 minutes away. We will definitely come back when in Firenze again.

The hotel is in a great location, is clean, and the room we had was large. With breakfast included it is great for the visitor to Florence.

Conveniently located, just 4 blocks from Florence train station (Firenze SM). About same distance to Uffizi Gallery and to Academia Gallery, Ponte Vecchio and to the beautiful cathedral. Safe surroundings and even a 24 hrs Mac Donnalds close by, if you need a very late or early morning snack. About hotel itself, very clean, free internet on your room, […] continental breakfast is actually a full breakfast. Rooms very comfortable and very clean, high quality linnens and towels.

What a pleasant surprise, the location of this hotel is excellent.. We had a great room 606 with a terrace and view, breakfast was awesome.. Very clean, big for Italy standards would recommend and definitely return. I am a very picky person, usually stay at 5 Star hotels so you won't be disappointed.

The hotel was fantastic. It was well located. The rooms were clean and modern. Staff were very helpful and gave great recommendations for dining from a maze of restaurants. All the sights were within walking distance. There was a coffee shop on the ground floor for a quick coffee before starting our day. I would definitely stay at this hotel again!

Everything works! Pleasant staff, great rooftop for breakfast and late night drinks. Would I return? I am !

The location is perfect. My room was large even for American standards. The decor was updated and cheerful. The bathroom was large and the tub was big and so needed after so much walking.

Fantastic hotel with wonderful staff walking distance to all key sights. We had a view room facing the chuch and the street - very nice. Breakfast was excellent and the espresso machine provided morning jolt of great coffee. Only downside to the room was pillows - way too hard for our taste, but seems to be the Italian way of sleeping. If we go back […] to Firenze we will stay here. Read more

Fantastic location, and very friendly staff. The hotel's wine/breakfast bar overlooks the Duomo and has a fantastic view of the city. The rooms are large, but fairly spartan. Be sure to bring your own toiletries, as those provided are particularly gross. The free breakfast is worth exactly what you pay for it, but it's hard to argue with free. Hotel […] lobby is nothing to look at. Read more

An evening on the roof-top balcony/cafe capped a very nice stay at this hotel. We originally went up only for evening glass of wine before dinner, and ended up staying a couple hours to watch the sun set and listen to the bells of the Duomo. The location is an excellent compromise for walking travelers between the main train station and the central […] sites of Florence (all just a few blocks from the hotel). Room was clean and comfortable; a good value. Read more

Great visit, but was too short. Hotel is near train station and historical sites.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Hotel was 2 blocks from Il Duomo and convenient to restaurants, shopping etc. Staff was helpful, room was nice, included breakfast was good.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Ordered coffee service for the room. Every day maid took away service. So, we had to request it every day. Somewhat of a hassle. Browser on computer at internetpoint not updated. Was never able to access it. Loved the rooftop terrace and the breakfast. My wife and I had the terrace all to ourselves for our wedding anniversary.

Great location! Close to Duomo and train station. Very clean and good size room.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Food at the hotel (in the wine bar) was horrible, and there was only one guy working there who was bartender, waiter, and cook. He was overwhelmed and we felt really bad for him. but still had a very nice time! breakfast was good.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Excellent hotel and excellent location, very close to the must-see sights in Florence, Hotel staff extremely helpful. Very nice breakfast buffet included in the room rate. Rates were about the best that we found in Florence for the quality and service received. We will go back to the Laurus al Domo and will certainly recommend it to friends.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

absolutely great

Excellent location and nice rooms - larger than expected. We got rooms with a view (peripheral) view of the duomo which was wonderful. The roof terrace/breakfast area was a real treat. The hotel is a bit dated but overall a first class experience!

The hotel is five minutes walk from the main train station , no taxi required. Its in a fantastic location one minute walk to the Duomo church which is basically the centre of all things you will want to see . Great restaurants close by, and also good shopping, the rooms are not large but ok ,clean and well stocked with toiletrys and towels..

Having done a semester abroad in Florence, my cousin and I were eager to go back.The Best Western was a fantastic place to stay! It was very clean and updated and it's location was terrific. We started out each day with a great complimentary breakfast and then began a daily excursion. Because of it's location, we could come back to the hotel mid day […] and shower (the weather is very warm in the summer) and then go back out at night..all without the use of taxis or buses. When we go back, we will definitely stay there again! The staff was also very friendly and helpful if you needed anything. Great place! Read more

The location is great, only few minutes walk to train station. And few minutes walk to all the attractions. The staffs are very friendly. very good experience.

Excellent location, room and bathroom was in immaculate conditiom, however, pillows are hard and flat...that is why 4/5 is given. overall, very good. Would highly recommend this hotel.

This hotel is in a great location. Less than a 10 minute walk from the train station and 2 blocks from The Duomo. The staff are wonderful. The front desk staff were extremely helpful and friendly.

My […] only criticism is the comfort of the pillows. They were a bit too hard for all our liking. Read more

Breakfast was very good, only ate at night one time and it was just soso. This hotel is right in the middle of everything you want to see in Florence. You can walk to any attraction in a matter of minutes.

Sounds like an American hotel, but has all the charm of a European one, just 2 minutes walk from the Duomo, and less than 10 minutes from the central train station. Staff was very friendly, free wifi in the room worked great, and breakfast (included) had a variety of choices, located on the rooftop terrace with view of the Duomo. Despite being in city […] center, noise was not an issue at night. Read more

The hotel was located a block from the Duomo. It is walking distance to everything. If you get lost look up for the Duomo and it we lead you back to your hotel. We stayed on the fifth floor right below the bar. It was a little noisy early morning and afternoon we they are setting up meals. Woke us up every morning. Love the hotel otherwise.

The hotel is in an excellent location, near the train station and near the center of Florence. The staff is very kind, rooms are really clean and thee is free internet. I would definitely stay again in this hotel.

Very clean and fantastic location, close to all major sites .

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The only thing that is keeping this hotel from a 5 star review is a few snotty front desk employees, and inability to print a boarding pass unless one pays for an hour's worth of computer time in lounge. Of you direct all requests or questions to the two really nice front desk people then it's ok. I found Florence in general to be overwhelmed w the […] sheer number of tourists which I think is part of the problem. It must be difficult for them. Rome seems to handle the whole service industry better. Last day we had littlt to no AC. Read more
