It was an amazingly great location, but I’m too old and fat for no elevator. It was located so perfectly, we would still stay here when back in Florence.

This was a fine, functional, adequate, clean facility, quite walkable from the train station and quite walkable to all of the city-center museums, galleries, etc. Excellent location. Beware, though, there is no elevator and the hotel is up a lot of windy twisty stairs! Do not select this hotel if you have mobility issues. Otherwise, it was a fine option.

8/10 Very good

Extremely well located, close to the sights and transport links. Not the cheapest hotel but reasonable for the location. I didn’t mind the four floors of old Italian stairs one has to ascend to reach the hotel, adds character, though it is a bit of effort. The room was nicely sized and clean, had everything I could ask for. But, my issue was the “private bathroom”. It was private but not attached to the bedroom, it was a small separate room down the hall way. I wouldn’t have booked here if I’d realised that, I don’t want to have to be getting dressed, walking down hallways and locking and unlocking doors in the middle of the night.

Very clean and modern rooms - super close to great restaurants, coffee shops and steps from Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and the train station! We loved our stay here and would definitely stay here again next time we are in Florence! The staff is super friendly, helpful and approachable which was great. Only negative about this hotel is the number of steps - I think my wife counted around 70 to 74 steps to get to the hotel floor. There are no elevators unfortunately - no biggie if you are young like us and pack light but might be tough for older individuals with kids and/or heavy luggage.

Loved my stay! The hotel consists of a handful of rooms on the fourth floor (so be prepared for a hike!). The room I stayed in was modern and clean, with a nice view of a main shopping street (and slight peak of the duomo). Area is safe and secure and PIN code access is needed for both the door at street level and the hotel floor itself. Had a great stay and would recommend again.

BEWARE: you need to climb 78 steps of stairs to get to the hotel. If you have big luggage, take that into consideration. The room is as pictured or maybe slightly better. It comes with a mini fridge, and they even gave me a bottle of water to start my stay. I had a room with a private bathroom, but my private bathroom is a few doors down, so it is not as convenient. You need to pay for city tax in cash as well. Other than that, I have no complaints.

Personale molto cordiale, la signora molto accogliente. Hotel complessivamente discreto, 77 gradini che ti tolgono l’anima e il respiro ma molto carino. Stanza pulita, il bagno leggermente strettino, ma confortevole.

It’s worth the rate and the hotel staff, Cristina was very nice and helpful. I stayed in room 9 which has a very nice view of the Duomo. I like that the room also got a fridge which is quite convenient for summer and that the time I stayed at the hotel.
