Booked a double room with private bathroom month before arriving, pre-payed 10% of total cost of stay duration (which was a week). E-mailed time of arrival. First impression was nice - right in the front of the palace, the room where the reception was had a great view of the palace, and frankly we were thinking we'd get a room... More

Even for a Soggiorno ('Rent-a-Room') this place is not worth your time! It is such a shame because the location is absolutely perfect (directly opposite the Palazzo Pitti and near the Ponte Vecchio) but no amount of situation can make up for the the poor manners of the staff! When we checked in we were created by a kind woman... More

This is a great hostel, we stayed here in July 2012 and it is directly across from Pitti Palace and only a 5-10 minute walk to most of Florence's major sites. The staff are super friendly and nice and the hostel is clean and well kept. Rooms are cool and quiet. We had a large two person private room which... More

After reading all of the scary reviews of this place, i was extremely nervous and skeptical about staying here. My husband and I just needed a place to crash in florence for one night because we had a wine tasting/dinner booked just a few doors down. The location is phenomenal. You truly can't beat it. Check in went extremely smoothly... More

they are closed between 1 and 3,30pm for lunch, you cannot check in then. to check in after 10pm costs an extra 20 euros. we were really pleased with the location - directly opposite pitti palace. our toilet was over the hallway from the room which was a bit annoying, and we had a locked door through to another guest's...

The bed and breakfast is right in the centre of Florence in Piazza Pitti. I recommend to ask for a room facing the Palazzo Pitti: Unique! The atmosphere is warm and the staff is friendly. Not a fancy place, but I guess you don't crash here if you look for a Holiday Inn experience. This place is right close to... More

The location is amazing, I can't complain about it. Our friend who lives in Florence has told us that we were actually staying at the better part of Florence (meaning the opposite side from Ponte Vecchio) because it offered cheaper and better food since it wasn't as touristic. Also Florence is a small city that it was so easy to... More

My friend and I stayed in two hostels in Florence one weekend because we were booking last minute. Soggiorno Pitti is a fantastic location. Best side of the river for sure, right across from the Pitti Palace. They upgraded our room for one with a private bathroom for the same price as a room without one. Nice people! ... and... More

Where to start... We put our boon in time as 8 am so we could make our 9 am tour. When we arrived another couple was already waiting outside because they wouldn't let ya check in till 8:30. Keep in mind it's late December and we are just sitting on the sidewalk. So when 8:30 arrives an employee comes and... More
