Very friendly reception, who had good advice what to see in Firenze and surroundings.
We will definitely stay there again.

AAA Excellent property, the location was convenient to the tourist area without it being in the middle, an easy 2-3 block walk. The hotel staff were top notch, helpful, gracious and excited to share their city with us. The breakfast buffet was amazing with something for everyone.

Stayed for 5 nights in May 2024 and had a wonderful time. The property owners are very kind and helpful. Rooms are basic but very comfortable and clean, the shower was terrific. Very easy to walk everywhere from here and at night it is very quiet. Always felt very safe and welcome at the Hotel. I highly recommend Hotel Giglio for a positive Florence experience.

4 nights i Florence
We were in Florence for 4 nights and stayed at the Hotel Giglio, based largely on the good feedback from previous guests. We were surprised and disappointed by the standard of the hotel. Very old feel, cramped breakfast room with poor/small selection. Also a bit strange to have the kitchen, reception and living room in the same room.
Not impressed with the cleanliness either, a dead wasp was on the floor during our entire stay and we had to ask for shower supplies as they were not replenished. We will not be returning here. Approx. 15 minutes walk down to the Duomo.
But, we had a great time in beautiful Florence.

Friendly and helpful owners who explained exactly where and when to go see the sights. Only a 20min saunter into the centre of Florence with air conditioning and a yummy breakfast! Only thing to note is not suitable for those that struggle with stairs as on the second floor.

The infrastructure of the Giglio can have some improvement. There was no AC for the first day/night in our room, and it’s very hot in Florence in July. We were moved to a different room the second day. Marco and Manuela are extremely helpful and always willing to help their passengers.

Hotel Giglio - uma boa experiência!
Adoramos ficar hospedados no hotel Giglio. Cama boa, chuveiro com ótima pressão e água quente e o ar condicionado era bom e silencioso. Dormimos bem e não ouvimos barulho durante a noite nem de hóspedes e nem da rua. O café da manhã é variado e delicioso, tudo muito bem servido e sempre sendo reposto, conforme vai terminando. A localização também é muito boa, tem transporte a uns 100m do hotel para a estação de trem e a Duomo, fica a uns 700m próximo ao hotel. Os hosts Manuela e Carlos foram muito atenciosos e simpáticos conosco. Voltaria com certeza a me hospedar no hotel Giglio!

Tudo ok! Recomendo
Tudo muito bom! Emanuela foi atenciosa e simpática. O café da manhã é bom. O atendimento lembra muito o de uma pousada, não tem a pegada de um hotel, e isso é bom para quem se sente mais confortável neste tipo de ambiente. A localização é excelente, 12 minutos caminhando até a praça Duomo. Muitos restaurantes e padarias nos arredores
