Above and beyond

It’s the best location for eating, drinking, shopping and seeing the history of it all. It’s a boutique style hotel with an awesome rooftop bar and restaurant and view. We had a 24 hour delay back to the US due to weather and the hotel staff accommodated our every need from transportation to other things to do while we spent an extra day there, to include assistance with opening a few bottles of wine for us. Emmanuel was even on the phone with airlines trying to assist us in rebooking our alternative flights back to the US. Can’t wait to stay there again during our next visit and will recommend them to all our friends. Ciao’.

Miami to Florence and disappointed.

Traveling for 30 days in Europe, the reviews for this hotel are mixed. The hotel is old and in desprit need of a remodel. The check in was ok, the staff is ok. The wifi is not good, the room is tiny , maybe 100 SQ ft. The breakfast is ok but better choices outside. I would not recommend this hotel.

This hotel was incredible. The best room we had in our whole day in Italy. It was so spacious so clean and we absolutely love the tub. The staff was very nice and also suggested a few restaurants. It was very close to a lot of shopping areas. Everything is walkable we also really enjoyed the breakfast buffet. It was very convenient with a lot of options. I feel like the price that we paid for this hotel was very reasonable and I would definitely come back and stay here, clean and quiet. We definitely felt safe here.

First impressions were very good. This is an old building full of character and a stones through away from the main sights in Florence. As its name suggests there are lots of stairs, and we did request a lower floor room in advance so it was a bit disappointing to find ourselves on an upper floor. There is a tiny lift suitable for 2 persons only so we had to travel separately to get our suitcases to the room. This also meant we had to wait if other people were using the lift 2 at a time. A bit of a drag when we got caught behind large groups with many suitcases. The room itself was spacious and with a very comfortable bed. Breakfast was good with some quite unusual and tasty food on offer. There is a lovely outdoor terrace but this is accessible via some steep steps so not something we wanted to negotiate with plates of food. We did have some very pleasant evening drinks there though. There are some very good restaurants near to the hotel and overall had an excellent culinary experience. This is a nice hotel and I'd stay again but I would really have to insist on a lower floor room.
