My husband and I stayed for 4 nights at the Hotel Merlini in mid October. The hotel is walking distance to the train station (5 min) and amenities such as grocery store and self service launderette (2min for both). They are located in the 3rd floor of a building that has no elevators. The hotel owners are very courteous and... more

Four of us traveled throughout Italy for 2 1/2 weeks. Stayed here when we went to Florence. It was alright. In a safe neighborhood and convenient location. The room was clean.

We spent three nights here and found the place adequate in all respects. The owners were pleasant enough, but spoke little English. I felt just a little... more

I stayed in a room with a private bathroom. Pros: conveniently placed near the train station and the city center. It is a decent family-owned albergo for a budget stay. Very clean, and very friendly staff. Cons: it is placed in the 3rd floor (no lift). more

Hotel Merlini was brilliant. Location was brilliant, just 7 minutes walk to the Duomo and a few more to everywhere else. It was also very close to the train station, literally 5 minutes walk. The bedrooms and bathrooms were amazingly clean and also spacious, with a great view from the window. We're really glad we found this charming place, and... more

Thank you Hotel Albergo Merlini for our most restful stay in Italy. In addition to a convenient location (only a few minutes walk from the Santa Maria Novella railway station), we found the hotel to be clean, comfortable, and quiet. The staff was extremely accomodating and friendly. Thanks for making us feel right at home. more
