Hotel Cardinal Of Florence, Florence

Marco and Mario were welcoming and accommodating. They held our luggage for three days while we visited three other towns. They insisted on helping us up and down the stairs with luggage. The view of Florence from the rooftop terrace was breathtaking. We didn’t eat the breakfast but it looked and smelled delicious with plenty of choices for a low price of 5 euros per person.

Not a very good experience. . Actually a rather unpleasant one. Hard to know where to begin. Pictures were highly deceiving . Room incredibly small . Because by accident we listed only one person when there were two and they charged us an additional 25 euro And that was not for an extra breakfast since we opted not to include breakfast . The water in the shower was not hot. Warm is a better description. There was a steet party until 3:00 AM which was very loud right below our room. 3 flights of steep steps is not for the faint of heart especially if your are hauling your luggage up the steps. Hotel has a good location but that’s about it. Avoid.

Great service, and the Hotel was an unexpected gem!

Ok. My first impression was the walk up but after that it was delightful. The hotel concierge was beyond helpful and the view was beautiful. Plus I loved the location. We had a car and the concierge was kind enough to check on google maps to make sure I wouldn’t get a parking ticket. It’s a small but really nice place. The only downside is the walk up so someone with a disability could not make it up.
