The Hotel Collodi is a gem. Located on a narrow lane, off of the Mercado Centrale and walking distance from the train station, it is a restful and quiet haven. From the moment we walked into the small lobby area, we were met with a warm smile. The proprietor spoke English and was extremely helpful. We needed reservations for the... more

My husband and I had no reservations while in Florence. We stumbled upon this hotel and were stunned by the price for the amazing quality. The attendants were so friendly and the price included breakfast in the morning. The place is absolutely charming and was the NICEST we'd stayed throughout Italy. Hotel Collodi is tucked away on a street that... more

The staff at Hotel Collodi could not have been more friendly or helpful. Gorgeous, spacious room and within walking distance to most popular Florence sites and the Markets. Fabulous Italian restaurant around the corner from Hotel Collodi (ask the staff, they will tell you where) best Italian food ever! I am going back to Florence next year and will definitely... more

A very pleasant stay. Helpful staff. Lovely room ( beautiful wood details) and lovely breakfast. Very good location. Transit tip: Don't worry about the ZTL zone; once beside the Hotel, staff will call for parking guy, and you will not be fined! more

We were greeted by the owner Giovanni and he was very informative on directions and places to go and see. His staff was awalys available and very friendly. Our room was very spacious and immaculate. The bathroom was a... more

I don't know who designed or operates the Italian hotel rating system, but there's something seriously wrong when the best small hotel I've ever stayed at in 40 years of travel ends up with a miserable 2 stars. The appointments of the rooms here would put some well-known luxury hotels to shame. To revisit my "signature" moan about hotel showers,... more

My husband and I traveled with both sets of parents on a driving tour of Italy. First, driving in Florence, even with a GPS is a nightmare. We finally found the hotel and the nearby parking garage. We were late due to terrible traffic on the autostrada and they were kind enough to keep the front desk opened until we... more

What a great hotel only a few meters from the Central Market! The location is perfect - centrally located in a very walkable city making it ideal for those who wish to tour Florence's fantastic museums and churches. Perhaps the best part of this hotel is the staff. They made reservations for us at two museums so we did not... more
