We stayed at the Best Western Select in Florence from Sept. 28 thru Oct. 2nd. It was a nice hotel, but you had to take a bus to see any attractions in Florence. The back of the hotel was next to a school so it was very loud in the day, but very quiet at night. The room was clean... more

My family of 4 needed a hotel near the airport but still in Florence, as our flight left 7:15 a.m, but we still wanted to have a great last meal in Italy. The day before, the hotel let us drop off our main luggage and we went to Venice for 24 hours. Upon arriving back in Florence, we walked about... more

Large, clean rooms with rather large bathroom. A/C worked well and there was a little fridge, which was very useful. The bed felt bigger than typical European beds. The major problems were the noise on the street and the long walk from the main tourist sites. This is a great value if you don't mind the walk. more

Stayed at the Select from 5 - 9 June 2006 We took a taxi to the Select from the station for under € 8 and it took less than 10 minutes. Although the hotel was a little further than we would have liked it to be from the town centre, it turned out not to be as big a deal... more

A group of eight of us stayed at the Hotel Select. The rooms were fine but after a heavy rain there was an unbearable musty smell in all the main level rooms. The entire staff, except for Simone were very kind and helpful. Simone seriously needs an attitude adjustment if he is to continue working at the front desk. Florence... more

My husband and I stayed at the Hotel Select for two nights in July 2005. The hotel was a 20 minute walk from the train station and about 30 minutes walk to the city center. The staff was helpful and professional. Our room (#215) was large and clean and one of the few rooms with a balcony. Because the hotel... more

Hotel has good room, staff is friendly. There is a supermarket and several restaurants close by. We ate at a Cuban restaurnat 3 blocks away and the food was good. Bus line 22 is 3 short blocks away. more

As stated by others this is a great value for your money if you don't mind the walk. To get into the city takes about 15-20 minutes walking, but the train station is only about a 10-15 minute walk (with my large pack on my back). They also have a space for cars, however trying to actually arrive there by... more

We stayed here for two nights in February, 2005. While it is convenient to the train station, there is not much going on in the neighborhood. However, we certainly got great exercise walking the 10-15 min. walk into town. The bed was kind of hard, but the shower was decent (for Italy standards), and the breakfast was good. I felt... more
