We loved the spacious triple room, which was perfect for my family with two adults and a baby, and we had a great time enjoying the cozy lounge and relaxing by the small pool area. We also appreciated the breakfast options, though there could have been a bit more variety. One minor downside was the elevator access—it was a bit tricky for us, but overall, our stay was lovely! 😊

Comfortable Stay in Heart of Florence
Our family enjoyed a wonderful stay! The location was perfect for exploring, with friendly staff always ready to assist. The rooftop bar was a nice spot to unwind after a day of sightseeing, though the view wasn't exceptional. For ease, consider packing light as accessibility can be tricky.

Oh man, the stewed partridge at Trattoria Mario was a total game changer! Not to mention, the cozy atmosphere makes every bite even better. Plus, the nearby Godi Fiorenza Food Court was a delightful surprise with its tasty local bites. The hotel staff was super warm on arrival, and the room was comfy with a spacious bathroom!

Great location and charming ambiance
The hotel is perfectly situated just a short walk from the Duomo, making it easy to explore all of Florence's major attractions. The rooms are spacious and offer stunning views of the cathedral, especially lovely at night. The continental breakfast included a nice variety of pastries and cold cuts, sufficient to start our day. However, the WiFi connection was rather poor during my stay.
