My wife and I stayed here for a few nights at my brothers recommendation. What a wonderful place! Near most of the hot ticket items in Florence, it's only downfall is that there can be a true swarm of tourists right outside the door at any time during the day. We really enjoyed our stay here, though the checkout time... More

My husband and I stayed at Casa del Garbo for 3 nights in August 2012. We absolutely loved this B&B and it actually may be my favorite B&B in all of Italy. Great service, beautiful room and furnishings, perfect breakfast! We stayed in the Beatrice room. It was beautifully decorated and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was equiped... More

Casa del Garbo doesn't look like much from the outside, but once we were shown into our room (Suite Lorenzo), we were really stunned. It is not really a room but a spacious apartment - entrance hall, well-sized bathroom, big living-room/bedroom, appointed kitchen with dining table, separate small bedroom for our son, beautiful decor, high ceilings... and a view of...

This is my second time at this B&B, I find it a great place to stay for its value. I only go when it is low season! The room is fantastic and very big......the view on to the Piazza is also a bonus. Only thing that I have had problems with is the hot water......they never have enough hot water.... More

This is the best possible location to walk everywhere. From our window over looking the Piazza Signorina we saw the David and other artwork. The room is actually an apartment that is comfortable, spacious and well equipped. The service is terrific with breakfast in the room if desired. We had a car and parking can be arranged.

Stayed here for second time, 5 years since last here and as good as remembered. Location is brillant, on piazza signoria so can pop back to room easily for breaks during the day. Rooms and bathroom spacious, no bath but I think that's not unusual in Italy. Breakfast is fresh; fruit, rolls, ham, cheese and pastries and great coffee. Staff... More

Great B&B in a perfect location with a very helpful and friendly staff. Walk most anywhere from this location or use the train/bus station which is close by. Terrific recommendations for dinners in the less "touristy" restaurants in Florence by Natalia. We spent five nights there and would have been happy to stay longer.

absolutely a great stay in the heart of a famous Piazza della Signoria Florence. Reasonably price bed and breakfast that gives you great service, clean room and an beautiful view of the piazza. Walking distance to museums and Cathedral.

We stayed 3 nights in the Gemma room in January. The central location could not be better -- we were able to walk anywhere in Florence, and it was great to be able to walk home after dinner or shopping. The room itself was very clean and comfortable, the shower was excellent, and breakfast was more than adequate with fresh... More
