This hotel was absolutely fabulous! The hotel is adjescent to the Uffizi Gallery and is in the optimal location. Very close to all of the attractions and also very quiet. The rooms and bathrooms were outfitted with brand new fabrics and marble. Very clean and had a120V American power outlet. Our basic double was of ample size. I observed the... more

We had a fantastic stay at the Orafi in an apartment/junior suite. Full kitchen, 2 bedrooms, 2 baths with living room. Very clean and quiet. If you have a student at Kent State University, Florence (Firenze) - this is a perfect location to be near the University and a welcome luxury for the student abroad! The other reviews are accurate... more

I just got back from two full weeks at the Degli Orafi in Florence. I picked the hotel from reviews on Trip Advisor and elsewhere. A central location and modern conveniences were most important to me. Most important of all was a room with a view, and I got a room with a view of the Arno and the Ponte... more

I had a great stay in Florence. This hotel is in the best location - right between the Uffuzi and the Ponte Vecchio. The accomodations are very nice and clean. I found the front desk people to be very nice and helpful. The breakfast was very good and the breakfast room has a beautiful ceiling - it reminds you that... more

The hotel is located in a fabulous location within walking distance to most attractions. It's clean and well kept, however, the weekend front desk is unaccomodating. Upon checking in, we were given two different apartments not a room in the hotel as we had booked which were acceptable. One apartment you had to take two elevators and stairs to get... more

Management response from
HDO, Managing Director & Hotel Owner

Your complaint does not amaze us at all. Your reservation was for a standard double room and our "rude staff", as you defined it, gave You an UPGRADE to a Suite apartment located in the new wing of the Hotel, without any extra charge. You can easly check the difference in price between our classic rooms and Suites on our...

we jaust returned from a short trip in Florence and although the Hotel degli Orafi has a magnificient position and lovely rooms is lacking of staff's courtesy. Having the opinion that the customer relation starts on the Front Office and Conciergerie, I must say I was realy disappointed. more

Europeandestinations.com showed hotels with user reviews and this was high on the list of recommended hotels in Florence...part of our package deal. My 20 year old daughter and I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights..they upgraded us to an apartment for some reason....living/kitchen/dining, king bedroom, bath, entry, etc. Was great, especially after staying n tiny hotel room in Rome... more

Our travel agent chose this hotel for us and I wasn't expecting anything special - I was wrong. This is a truly wonderful hotel in a great location, just down the street from the Ponte Vecchio. Staff are wonderful and hotel has a lovely quaint feel to it. There are lots of sitting rooms/places to unwind on each floor of... more

We had numerous options before returning to Florence in July for a three night stay at Degli Orafi. We chose this hotel because we had stayed there once before and had a good idea of what to expect. Before you go, rent or buy the movie "Room with a View". The movie was filmed here....and like us, you can gain... more

My daughter and I just returned from a wonderful 4 night stay at the Degli Orafi. We LOVED this hotel and it's staff! It is perfectly located for easy walks to everywhere in Florence. Our room was on the second floor and was in a very quiet area of the building. The rooftop terrace was an absolute highlight of our... more
