Like others I cannot understand why this excellent hotel doesn't have higher ratings - it may work to our advantage though the rack rate for the rooms is reasonable. I have stayed at this hotel may times over the years, and always return. The bathrooms are admittedly small, but the staff are wonderful, and the air conditioning works. Breakfast or... more

I really don't understand why this hotel is rated as low as it is. As other reviewers have said we thought it was an absolute gem Well fitted, spotlessly clean, very pleasant staff, lovely breakfast, dining / drinking terrace that it was hard to leave, what more can I say. It's position at the end of the Ponte Vecchio is... more

This hotel is well-located and a good value for the price. Reception was very friendly and helpful. The room was bigger than expected and, although dated, very clean. Rooms facing the street are very loud (despite windows that blocked the noise well) but I think this is hard to avoid in Florence. Only downside is that I left something in... more

Nice 3 star hotel. Rooms are a little tired and need updating / renovation, but they are very clean. Staff is extremely helpful. Great location just at the end of the Ponte Vecchio on the Pitti Palace side. Near the Center of everything. Great breakfast upstairs, fresh fruit, juice, coffee, cereal, tea, breads and pastries, usually one hot item. Sit... more

Lovely hotel with a superb location. We stayed in the hotel for 2 nights and were pleased from the start. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful, the rooms were clean, roomy and comfortable. Breakfast was good and served in the bar on the 6th floor with great views over the city. I could not fault our stay in the... more

This hotel is in a great location at the foot of the Ponte Vecchio. It's close to all the major sites (although Florence is a compact city) and there are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The room was spacious, clean and more than adequate for our stay. The bathroom was also spacious and everything worked well. The continental breakfast... more

I read the reviews on Trip advisor before booking this hotel and they seemed quite good. The Hotel is in a stunning location just off the Ponte Vicho bridge and central for the Dumo , Uffizi gallery and all the delights of Florence. The staff were polite, helpful went out of thier way to make our stay good. Avoid room... more

WE have just returned from Florence. i have to admit i was very nervous about the hotel by reading the previous reviews. but it was a brilliant hotel with a large room and bed. The room was spotless. The location is excellent just being on the southside of the river. There was plenty of choice for breakfast and it was... more

The hotel could not be in a better position as it is ten steps from the Ponte Vecchio bridge! Once you cross the bridge all the areas you wish to see are 30mins max.if you are walking but most are 5 to 10 mins.The tourist city bus stop is 30metres away from the front door on the riverside. The hotel... more

I stayed at this hotel for 4 nights and was amazed at it's location especially for the price; as others have stated it's right next to Ponte Vecchio and Pitti Palace. I don't know if we got a newer room because we had a key card while others got keys but i was pleasantly surprised at the size of the... more
