Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Excellent. Small, intimate, full of character and in keeping with the historic nature of Florence. Quiet but centrally located neighbourhood. Attentive management instantly available at the end of a text message. Young hoteliers focused on delivering the best service to their clients. Congratulations. Our experience is first class was first class.

A beautifully decorated hotel that has excellent air conditioning, a lovely lounge with snacks - and best of all - hosts who care and try to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. The recommendations really helped shape a lovely break and making restaurant reservations was a saving grace. Quiet, comfortable and charming.

This is now where I will stay if I ever return to Florence. A truly beautiful boutique hotel with the most lovely hosts you will ever come across - Alessia and Daniel. Alessia made check in an ease, confirming when I would arrive so she could meet me at the door! She sat down with me and asked what I was interested in doing in Florence so she could make recommendations and she and Daniel even recommended beautiful restaurants!! There are only a few rooms at the hotel so it truly feels bespoke. It is decorated beautifully, complete Tuscan style and is in a fantastic location being only a short walk to the Academie gallery and the Duomo. Thank you Alessia and Daniel!

A little bit farther than I expected but otherwise OK. Loved the ambiance of the old building! The stay started out good. Our host Alessia was very welcoming, giving us her cell number in case we had questions and showing us our room and the AC remote. Unfortunately, it went downhill from there. Our AC didn’t work and we had a very hot sweaty night. When Alessia finally answered our texts the following day, she blamed it on the Italian law stating that AC wouldn’t work unless it was a minimum degrees outside. According to Google, this law is only for public buildings and schools, not hotels, and since every other hotel on our itinerary had AC, we were not happy with her excuse. Why go to the bother of showing us the remote, if she knew we wouldn’t be able to use it as it was supposedly not hot enough yet? Upon checkout, no one could be found to pay our hotel tax, and we waited for over 15 minutes while the maid frantically called for our host to come. When some man finally showed up, he was extremely rude to us and we had to run, barely catching our train. Sorry to say, would not stay here again.

Response from Alessia Spinelli, Proprietario at Antica Dimora Firenze
Responded 31 May 2022
Dear Viktoria, first of all thank you anyway for leaving a review, as young hoteliers we care very much about our guests' experience and about finding good points to think about. About your experience in our guesthouse, let's just tell one time the truth: You arrived in our hotel and you were given all the informations about the house and your accomodation, then, you were offered a drink in our common space area while I sat with you explaining (more or less 1h of our work time) all the beautiful things about the city and good recommendations about food (what we always do during a check in). At the end of the check in, you were also given my personal telephone number on which you were completely free to text me when you were around to always have a person to rely on. I even booked all the restaurants for all the nights you were in Florence. And that's what you did, you texted me every single day when you were around the city to ask for gelateria, museum and where to find the places I've pointed out on the map. On the last night, you had a problem with the air conditioning claiming it didn't work (this at 10.30 in the night, after 2 days of using air conditioning perfectly). I told you that probably there was a block on the system first of all because there wasn't much we could do at that hour of the night and after that because in Italy we have a restriction on the use of air conditioning EVEN IN PRIVATE, which does not allow you to turn on the air at less than 26 degrees in summer time (not even spring time). It was a very hot day, I believe that, but in case you haven't noticed we are in full global energy crisis, and asking for air conditioning at 23 degrees in May is unfortunately neither yours nor my right, especially when simply opening the window would be enough. But let's go back to your check out day: After days of uninterrupted messages from you, suddenly, when I try to text you (the morning of check out) that we have to meet for the payment of the tourist tax, you .. strangely .. disappear. We were in the property from 7.00 AM to 10.30 AM and you never showed up, we even knocked at your door and never replied, no rush in taking the train here. For this reason we told our waitress to call us when she would see you going out of the room, and so she did, exactly 2 minutes after we left the house you were out of the room all in a rush to take your train. When Daniele (the manager, not some man) came over, YOU were extremely rude telling him you didn't know that you had to pay city tax (in 2022 with global travelling, claiming not to know that you owe a city tax is quite "weird", also you not remembering that I told you this on the first day we met after the check in, is quite "weird"). Finally your check out was done, and, to the top of it all.. after half an hour you were gone, you texted me a message if you could come back to pick up your shampoo left in the room and you did it, so I see no "barely catching" nothing here. I conclude by saying that, it is true that the opinion of the guests is sacred and unquestionably must be taken into consideration for the improvement of the service. But let me also say that being a traveler who pays does not authorize you to tell lies publicly by attempting to divert other potential guests, and it certainly does not authorize you not to use common sense in living. This shouldn't be allowed. Thank you again for your comment. With regards. Alessia

Absolutely perfect! Upon our arrival, our host Alessia spent 30 minutes explaining the sites of Florence and giving us valuable secret tips for where to eat well. The room was very comfortable and cosy, a real home away from home. Because of Covid, the B&B isn't allowed to offer regular breakfast since they have one big table in the dining room. However, there are a lot of snacks freely available for the guests at all times, including Cantucci and Wine. Thanks to the house being a bit further from the centre, we slept like babies, no disturbing street noise anywhere. In just 15min walking time, we got to the city centre, though. All in all, I can highly recommend the Antica Dimora, and should I return to Florence, I'll definitely stay here again.

Our hostess was more than hospitable and very helpful in guiding us through Florence with explaining the map to us. Very clean place and cozy living room with beverages and snacks always accessible. The location was excellent within walking distance to most of the sites to see, I.e. The Duomo, which is a must see.

First contacts sometimes "make" a place. We had arrived at the address, gotten out of the cab, and were busily unloading our bags, when Piero very sweetly stepped off the curb and came over to shake my hand and welcome all of us to Florence! What a wonderful way to make a guest feel special! Curbside hospitality! And the ROOMS! First of all, the building dates from the 14th century. There are incredible staircases and old wooden beams all over the place. The keys are literally skeleton keys and they jingle! Our room was gorgeous! We had a big window with a step to reach it. Then, there was a step up into a very spacious bathroom. We were all in love with Florence just in seeing our rooms! Coffee and tea is provided, along with biscuits for dipping. Breakfast started a bit later, at around 8-8:30am. Traditional continental breakfast. I really loved the whole-grain croissants. They were delicious, along with local jams. There were tarts, toast, hard-boiled eggs, and cereals. It was simple fare, but served in a lovely gathering room, where one could meet people from all over the world. I'll also add that there is ALWAYS something yummy sitting out for guests to snack on. Peanuts, tarts, liqueurs, you name it. This little gem is situated not far at all from the Duomo and Academia. People can walk most places to get from place to place. We had one person in our party with mobility issues, so Piero called a cab for us to get to the Uffizi. Piero was also kind enough to get us tix to the Academia to see Michelangelo's David. However, the Uffizi Gallery was my favorite experience. The views over the city from the gallery's windows were just as spectacular as some of the art. I HIGHLY recommend Antica Dimora Firenze. It's a lovely, historic retreat that's fanciful and a real haven in a phenomenal Italian city.
