Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers beautiful and comfy rooms with a selection of sofas, books, snacks, and drinks, but noise from overhead and the hallway prompted us to venture out until it quieted down. The location provides an excellent view, although it wasn't the quietest.
The hotel had a unique layout where finding rooms involved navigating round corridors, with an entrance downstairs but a check-in on the fifth floor. Despite the old-fashioned interior with falling wallpapers, the rooms were surprisingly clean and spacious. However, the claustrophobic feel might not suit everyone's taste.
The hotel's location is fantastic, right on the Ponte Vecchio, making it super convenient for exploring all the major attractions in Florence. The rooms, although a bit small, are fantastic and exactly what you need. The service is top-notch, with a super friendly and helpful staff. The dining experience, while sufficient, could offer more variety. The hotel's facilities are great overall.
I enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The rooms were small but well appointed and clean, despite some noise from above. The service was friendly and helpful, especially Jolanda. The location was excellent, right in the heart of Florence near many attractions. The dining experience on the roof terrace was delightful, offering a variety of breakfast options. Overall, a great value for a stay in such a central location.
Upon arriving at the hotel, I was thrilled to discover its perfect location just steps away from Ponto Vecchio and right in the heart of the city. The view from the penthouse room was amazing, but the room itself was comically small and a bit loud even with the window closed. Although the service was mostly incredible, there was one receptionist with a lackadaisical approach. The dining experience was nice, especially during breakfast, and the facility's proximity to major attractions was a major plus.
The hotel is located right in the heart of Florence, steps away from major galleries and museums, offering a central and convenient base for exploring the city. The rooms are clean and comfortable, albeit on the smaller side, making them ideal for short stays. The service was incredibly helpful and accommodating, assisting with restaurant recommendations and travel arrangements. The dining experience, while standard, was enjoyable with a lovely terrace overlooking the Clock Tower. An excellent choice for sightseeing in Florence, especially given the ideal location and friendly service.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were a good size by European standards and very clean, but the noise from the streets near Ponte Vecchio late at night was disruptive. The service was exceptional with staff going above and beyond to assist with various arrangements. The location, right on Ponte Vecchio and close to major attractions, was unbeatable. However, some inconveniences like blocked hallways on the first floor tarnished the experience.
The hotel offers beautifully decorated rooms and serves delicious breakfasts and coffee in a charming courtyard, overlooking a courtyard with some noise from passing trucks. The service is friendly and efficient, going above and beyond, but lacking in offering recommendations. The exceptional location near Ponte Vecchio Bridge provides easy access to the heart of old Florence. Dining is delightful in a lovely setting, though limited. Overall, a charming stay with minor room size concerns.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although fair in size, might feel small for travelers used to more spacious accommodations, especially due to noise from the restaurant above. The air conditioning was inadequate, and the rooms were quite basic. On the bright side, the location was amazing, right by the River Arno and steps away from Ponte Vecchio, compensating for any room shortcomings.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean and tidy, although a bit small for two people. The service was incredibly friendly and accommodating, especially Jolanda who went above and beyond to assist us. The location was fantastic, right next to Ponte Vecchio, but the dining options were somewhat limited. Overall, a decent stay with a few minor drawbacks.
