“Great spot near a bus stop, perfect for a longer stay. The room was spacious and stylish, bed very comfortable, and it had smoke detectors.”

9Verified guest

“Lovely old building with period features and high ceilings. Decent continental breakfast. Staff spoke good English and were helpful with travel advice. Modern decor and well-finished fixtures, kept clean throughout. About 25 minutes on foot to the Duomo, or 5–10 minutes on the no. 17 bus (goes to San Marco square – near the Duomo and also to/from the main train station, S.M.N.). Good value compared to the rest of Florence.”

9Verified guest

“Well-designed rooms, lobby, and breakfast room. Friendly family-run place in a not-so-old palazzo, away from the tourist crowds. Close to sports facilities (stadium, pools) and good restaurants and gelaterie. Historic sites and the train station are reachable directly by bus.”
