More than I’d Hoped for!
The entire stay from start to finish was really nice. The front desk helped us get our car parked in a garage and took care of recommendations all the way up to getting our car back at the door of the hotel. I’m so glad we got to stay here.

Lovely trip to Florence this
Great location! Easy to walk to all the sights of Florence. Lovely clean hotel. We were given a huge room on the street side of the hotel but no noise at day or night. Really comfy bed.
Breakfast was super, plentiful and staff are very pleasant. They are always busy making sure everything is replenished quickly. Lovely to sit in courtyard in the morning.
