Apart from the location, I have nothing good to say about this hotel and I'm surprised the number of people who rate it so well. It's the only hotel that we booked through our travel agent and never again. We spent 4 weeks in Italy, and I booked all of the hotels through the hotel websites after researching them on... more

This place’s best asset is its location on the end of the Ponte Vecchio Bridge. It’s the center of a bustling market area of town, and it’s always crowded with people. It’s a short walking distance from most attractions. It was hot and humid when we were there in May, so we appreciated the A/C in the rooms. The front... more

I wasn't totally impressed with the hotel but the location is excellent. The hotel felt very much like a Best Western or Holiday Inn. It was good for a night's sleep and quiet. The buffet breakfast we good and it's on the top floor overlooking the tops of buildings in Florence. (look on hotel website for pics) Staff is just... more

Like others I cannot understand why this excellent hotel doesn't have higher ratings - it may work to our advantage though the rack rate for the rooms is reasonable. I have stayed at this hotel may times over the years, and always return. The bathrooms are admittedly small, but the staff are wonderful, and the air conditioning works. Breakfast or... more

I really don't understand why this hotel is rated as low as it is. As other reviewers have said we thought it was an absolute gem Well fitted, spotlessly clean, very pleasant staff, lovely breakfast, dining / drinking terrace that it was hard to leave, what more can I say. It's position at the end of the Ponte Vecchio is... more

This hotel is well-located and a good value for the price. Reception was very friendly and helpful. The room was bigger than expected and, although dated, very clean. Rooms facing the street are very loud (despite windows that blocked the noise well) but I think this is hard to avoid in Florence. Only downside is that I left something in... more

Nice 3 star hotel. Rooms are a little tired and need updating / renovation, but they are very clean. Staff is extremely helpful. Great location just at the end of the Ponte Vecchio on the Pitti Palace side. Near the Center of everything. Great breakfast upstairs, fresh fruit, juice, coffee, cereal, tea, breads and pastries, usually one hot item. Sit... more

Lovely hotel with a superb location. We stayed in the hotel for 2 nights and were pleased from the start. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful, the rooms were clean, roomy and comfortable. Breakfast was good and served in the bar on the 6th floor with great views over the city. I could not fault our stay in the... more

This hotel is in a great location at the foot of the Ponte Vecchio. It's close to all the major sites (although Florence is a compact city) and there are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The room was spacious, clean and more than adequate for our stay. The bathroom was also spacious and everything worked well. The continental breakfast... more
