I stayed here for 1 night, the hotel was atmospheric, with perfect location near to the main Cathedral, downtown and the train station. Well-organised and authentic room, comfortable bed and pillows. I loved a shower, a hairdryer and a bidet in the bathroom. The staff was fabulous, I had a real good experience.

Outstanding stay in a petite hotel. I liked the brilliant room, the pool was clean. There was lots of food for breakfast, including toast, butter and cheese. The service was efficient, all people working there were smart. Decent location, 15 minutes' walk to a prominent art museum.

I would recomand this hotel for staying in Florence. It is a NICELY DECORATED property, I loved large rooms and realy good location. Spectacular view, a nice balcony, good bed, too. Attentive service within 0.5 miles of the airport.
