Situated right on the Plaza dela Republica and a very easy walk to much of Florence. I particularly enjoyed the Russian woman who sang outside our window every evening. The room was small and the shower a bit tight (the whole bathroom was tiny), but quite comfortable. The staff was very accommodating - let us leave bags for a few... more

For service and excellent English, Pam was just wonderful!

My family and I (hubby, 2 kids; 4yrs and 2 yrs) spent a week at Hotel Pendini and we were very happy with everything it had to offer. The reception staff were friendly and helpful, the breakfast plentiful and relatively healthy....if you had the will power to stay away from the endless supply of nutella......and it was clean and spacious.... more

Hotel Pendini feels like it opened as a nice hotel a hundred years ago and hasn't changed since. But it has free wi-fi in the desk area, several English channels on TV, and great air conditioning.
