Hotel Embassy, Florence

Just on outskirts of City center...very close to train station. I’m not sure about the 4 star rating, but it was certainly clean! Bathroom was remodeled and modern..Nice touch with the painted ceiling. TV was slightly odd with the mirrored panel - we weren’t able to see the pictures on the TV screen because our bed was so low and the reflection practically blacked out the images. We were barely in our room so it wasn’t an issue at all for us—but if we planned on staying in and relaxing, I would’ve definitely asked for a different set up.

Overall, a comfortable stay AND WONDERFUL breakfast included. The hotel rooms are small, which was my first impression, but that seems to be the case for many hotels in Rome. Rooms are tidy, modernly furnished, with a cute balcony. The hotel is supposedly 4-stars, invoking the city tax rate of 6 euros (I think?) per person per room, which is to be paid separately from the regular room reservation. It did not feel like a four-star hotel, because it lacked room service, a gym, pool, concierge service, business center, etc.. but I suppose the star ranking is relative to other hotels in Rome. Some hotel staff was very friendly and helpful-others did not seem very helpful. For instance, asking for recommendations for late night delivery seemed like a very difficult question to the front desk. Location is good- 2 min walk to Fiume bus / taxi hub, making it easy to get to the more touristy areas of Rome. Within 5-10 min walking distance of hotel, there were several restaurants, a gelato place, a few mini-markets and a supermarket.

Was very close to train station which is good and bad. You hear the trains. Close to airport but pricey cab ride (not sure why) reasonable walk to shopping and restaurants. Air conditioner was hard to figure out and front desk fixed as soon as we asked twice with their computer?!

Awful experience for a very expensive stay. The staff was nice but nothing can help the train noise which operates almost all day long and the noise is very disturbing! In the bath there was hardly any light.

Really clean and great location. It was a bit lonely area at night but overall really good. Lucresia in the reception was amazing rally helpful. Room was not the most modern but it had all the necessary and it was spacious. Wifi really good. Breakfast buffet good and service really good as well.
