Signoria Apartments - Florence

We had quite a hike (we walked maybe 15-20 minutes from the train station) to get to the apartment office and then another 10-15 minutes to get to the apartment. Danilo was very nice but our room was still being cleaned when we arrived there, so we dropped off our luggage and threw a load of laundry in so we could get out of the way of the maids. Washer […] was in Italian so had to figure out how to use it. The ad said "washer and dryer", but there was no dryer, so Danilo showed us where the laundry rack was. It was so humid our clothes never dried fully, so we had to go find a laundromat, which was just up the street around the corner. We were there two nights and the A/C did not work - we hiked over to tell Danilo on the second day and he said he would come by to fix it, but he never did. The "shower" (an exposed shower head in the corner of the bathroom, no curtain) flooded when my daughter took the first shower there (Hint: be sure not to step on top of the drain - water seaped out into the bedroom and covered the bathroom floor!). Still the privacy was nice and the apartment overall was pretty comfortable and easy enough to walk to attractions. Read more

My three children and I stayed at the Signoria Apartments for 3 nights. We stayed in a 1 bedroom+sofa bed apartment. The best part about the hotel is the location. Literally around the corner from Piazza Signoria, the Uffizi Gallery, the Palazzo Vecchio and the Arno. The apartment was a little small for the four of us, but the kitchen was a welcome […] addition for breakfast and midday breaks from sight-seeing. The hotel staff at check in were very friendly and helpful, and pointed us to a great little (local) restaurant next door (with discount for apartment guests), and it was one of the nicest meals we had in Italy. My only complaint with the room, was that it backed onto other buildings and with the windows frosted, it felt a little claustrophobic, but you're not in Florence to stay in your room, and the location is nothing short of amazing.

Friendly service staff. No lift access. But sevice staff will help you to carry up the apartment. 3 floors high. Carry a few baggage up myself because feel bad to let the service staff to assist himself alone. Omg. Power tripped twice. Disappointed experience. Air-con is not cooling. Kitchen oven not working. Hob lighter is not working. Small staircase […] access to above bedrooms. Read more

Our apartment is located next to the town Library, along the Corso dei Tintori street, very close to Piazza Santa Croce. Indeed the location is excellent, within walking distance to all of Florence' key attractions. The apartment itself is situated "within" a local college of arts/design (sharing the same main entrance). The folk from Signoria Apartment […] is most helpful. Rather than having us running to the office (situated in another street) to collect the key, he met us at our apartment, helped us with our luggage, show us how to use the place and briefed us on key local points etc. He even helped us to book a taxi for our departure. Our family of 4pax fit comfortably into the place, which consists of a small entrance hall with a sofa bed that sleeps two person, a room with a queen bed, a well-eqipped kitchen at the back. And interestingly, above the kitchen is an attic-like place which can sleep another person comfortably. The only minor thing is that the apartment has only sky-window, hence there is not much view from the place. Across the street is a supermarket, the place is thus very convenient. Overall, to us this is simply perfect, would certainly recommend it. Read more

Vi hadde to netter på dette hotellet. Det var varmt å gå opp (4 etg), men inne i leiligheten var det komfortabel temperatur. Det var en leilighet som var midt i blinken for familie med 2-3 barn. Internett-tilgang var litt ustabil. Konsertene på torget ved "rådhuset" hørtes ganske godt i leiligheten, men de avsluttet begge kveldene i 23-23.30-tiden. […] Beliggenheten kunne ikke vært mer sentral. Vi kjørte bil så langt som vi kunne komme, ringte hotellet og de kom og kjørte oss helt til hotellet, overtok bilen og parkerte i en garasje et sted. Avtalte når de skulle komme å levere bilen til oss, og de kom akkurat som avtalt. Meget god service og hyggelige folk som jobbet der. Hotellet/leiligheten kan absolutt anbefales! Read more
