Lovely hotel close to all the sights in Florence
Excellent location for sightseeing in Florence. Hardly a stones throw from the end of the Ponte Vecchio. Very clean and comfortable with helpful and friendly staff. Nice rooftop bar with views of the duomo and bell tower. They also gave us some free gifts as it was our 30th wedding anniversary.

We really enjoyed this property. The rooms were very nice. The location is perfect - easy access in, out, and around Florence. The rooftop deck/bar was a treat for views of the Duomo and the Arno. Highly recommend.

Friendly staff. Absolutely delicious breakfast with tons of choice. Lovely bar area.
Best thing was it's proximity to the Ponte Vecchio and central position for the other tourist areas. The Ufitzi gallery is next door.

Lovely hotel situated right next to the uffizi and looking into the Arno. Breakfast was delicious with a wide range of options. There was some noise during the day from building work next door but staff were helpful and moved me to a different room. Highly recommend!

Wonderful hotel with great service. But, our room was on the street side (River Arno side), and there was loud noise from vehicles and loud talking late into the nights (2AM at least) and then again early morning. I’d suggest asking for an interior room away from the street.

Excellente!!!
The staff and accomodations were so fantastic!
They addressed me by name during my stay and were so helpful when asked any questions, whether about the hotel, or ideas about Florence.
The location could not have been more convenient !!!!
Right on the river and steps from both the Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi, and Galileo museums.

A wonderful hotel in Florence.
We had an excellent stay: we will certainly return, and would recommend the hotel to anyone. It has a wonderful location, with beautiful views of the Arno and the Duomo. The breakfast was very good indeed, with lovely cereals, scrambled eggs, fruit and so on. The staff were charming and helpful. My one criticism would be that the shower was very tricky - the water was either icy or scaldingly hot. All in all, a special and delightful hotel!
