10/10 Exceptional

This hotel was incredible!! Our trip went sideways after our cruise was cancelled and this hotel helped us in so many ways! They went out of their way to make us feel welcomed and get our vacation back on track. We loved it so much, we even ended up extending our stay. You cannot ask for a better hotel or a better location!

10/10 Exceptional

Super wonderful, helpful, kind staff. Large room. Good shower and beds. Good a/c. Coffee bar in lobby was great! Perfect location!! And the rooftop restaurant was also great. For the restaurant, Dress warm if it’s a chilly night (coat, scarf, etc) but worth it! And they have thin blankets. I’d definitely stay here at again!

The hotel is very well located and it’s pretty. However it was very noisy and the cleaning could be better.

We absolutely loved our stay here and honestly couldn’t have picked a better hotel for our time in Florence! The location was perfect — we were so close to everything and could easily walk everywhere, which made exploring the city so easy. The rooftop bar had great views of the city. One of our favourite parts of the stay was the concierge service. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, and they gave us some amazing recommendations for dinners and shopping that we wouldn’t have found on our own. We had such a great experience from start to finish and can’t recommend this hotel enough. We would 100% stay here again the next time we’re in Florence!

From the time we walked through the front door and left the staff was amazing! Extremely helpful, from helping with an early check in, to snagging tickets to see the David, staff made it easy to ask for help! As if they truly enjoyed it! Thanks for the memorable stay.
