The rooftop view is fantastic! And the bar cocktails matched the view. The staff were kind and helpful. Would stay here again without hesitation. One small suggestion for more comfortable pillows, but this is minor for what you are getting from this hotel

We stayed in the Romance Suite, it was VERY spacious, two bathrooms, comfortable bed, sitting area, and a balcony - though not wide enough to sit, it was long enough to walk. Rooftop pool with lots of space to lounge and get a drink at the rooftop bar. Very classy and high quality throughout. Good location, quiet. Amazing staff.

Fantastic Hotel and location. Minutes walk from the Train Station. Was upgraded on arrival which was a great touch, friendly staff and good choice of Buffet Breakfast. Small Roof Top Swimming Pool and Bar, which is rare in the area. Florence is stunning and great for Designer Shopping.

Warm and friendly welcome. Spacious room with remarkable view of the square and Duomo. Rooftop bar and terrace bar really great for soaking up Florence vibe. Staff excellent throughout. Top tip: Be careful of the mosquitoes when the weather is hot! Hotel provides bug plug for room.
