This reasonably priced family operated hotel proved a perfect hub for exploring Florence. Situated a few blocks from the Duomo area, it provided a nice retreat away from the crowds. Yet you can access the Accademia, the Duomo, the Market and other attractions with a five minute walk. Accommodations were spare but comfortable in our family-friendly triple. Breakfast was OK...

I found this hotel to be in a nice location. The rooms were ok but perhaps a bit dated. I believe there are rooms that are more updated. We had a room on the street which was quite noisy...rooms that face the courtyard would be better. Speaking of the courtyard, it's quite nice and a wonderful place to enjoy a... More

We spent 4 nights here. The staff were welcoming but unlike other reviews we did not find them as helpful about information regarding where to go,etc. I did ask where to buy Firenze Card and was told at the Tourist Information but not told where that was. In the end it wasn't so difficult for us to find the nearest... More

We spent five nights here and loved every minute. From the moment we stepped into the elegant lobby it was clear this was a special place. Our room was small but comfortable and very well maintained. The real joy of this hotel were the public rooms. For a quiet time there is a library with a huge chandelier under a... More

The hotel lobby was beautifully furnished with comfortable seating and a computer area for the guests. The staff at the reception desk helped us with our internet connections, gave us suggestions for getting into the musems and made a reservation for a concert. We stayed in a quiet room facing the back courtyard, the marble bath was lovely and the... More

We spent two nights here and found the staff to be particularly helpful. Our room (particularly the bathroom) was a little worn. We asked if anything more up-to-date was available and were told that although they were full for that night, they could move us to a nicer room the next day. We ended up being too lazy to repack...

Overall, our stay was very pleasant; however, make sure that you confirm that you will have air conditioning in your room! Before booking this hotel, we thoroughly searched the internet and did plenty of research on hotels in Florence that specifically had air conditioning available. Orto de Medici’s website specifically stated “air conditioning” as one of their amenities. Nowhere on... More

We spent a long weekend in Florence and Orto De Medici turned out to be a great choice. The room was small but very nice with a lovely, albeit petite, balcony and a nicely designed marble bathroom with a huge opening window that I liked. The staff was very nice, spoke excellent English and made some superb restaurant recommendations. The... More

We are just back from 2 weeks in Italy and stayed at this hotel for 5 nights. We had a lovely room on the front street of the hotel. It was comfortable and roomy enough. There is so much to like about this hotel - it's lovely, the staff is very warm, and the breakfast truly is the best. Those... More
