Can't say enough great things about ths property! The location is spectacular - just a few blocks from Ponte Vecchip and Palozzo Pitti. Also right in the center of many of the artisan shops. The property was clean and the rooms were well appointed and larger than many European hotel rooms. We enjoyed a the complimentary bottle of Chianti on arrival:) The rooftop terracn is spectacular - best view in town of Florence. The staff was kind, helpful and knowledgable:)

I highly recommend this hotel. It was an older building (as expected in Italy), but very well maintained, and the room was gorgeous. The bathroom was very modern, the space was clean, and the staff was very helpful.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Incredibly beautiful property located in one of the best locations all of the great things to say are 2 to 10 minute walk at most. The building has a great Italian old architecture, but beautifully done interiors. The room I stayed in had its own steam room, its own sauna and a Jacuzzi and a living room. The staff went out of their way to assist me because I did not have a digital copy of some of the things I needed for check-in.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The staff was great from when we checked in to the time we left. The rooftop bar was amazing every evening to overlook Venice and the location couldn’t be better for those who like an inter-city hike and time at the museums. We travelled with our children and they loved it as well. Only two small issues were some ants in the room, and the shower drain seemed to be quite plugged. I am sure those are easily fixed and would not stop me from coming again. Worth every Euro, must be one of the best places in downtown Florence.

Can vouch for the A/C as Firenze was ~100degF.Firm Queen mattress. Fancy, multi headed shower was nice touch. Quiet, yet close in to everything that matters. Roof top bar has drop desd gorgeous views. Easy to recommend at this price point
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Hotel La Scaletta Al Ponte Vecchio was a comfortable and convenient choice for our stay in Florence. The hotel is centrally located on Via Guicciardini, perfectly situated between the Ponte Vecchio and Pitti Palace, making it very easy to explore the city on foot. Because the hotel is located within a historic 16th-century building, finding our room and navigating the split staircases and different floor levels took a little getting used to. Our room was small, but it was clean and comfortable, and perfectly manageable for two people as long as we stayed organized with our unpacked belongings. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Manuel was especially helpful, giving us advice on navigating Florence as well as excellent bar and restaurant recommendations. One of the highlights was the lovely rooftop bar, with beautiful views over the city and the Boboli Gardens near Pitti Palace. The morning breakfast was also excellent, with a substantial selection and a very pleasant atmosphere. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would happily choose Hotel La Scaletta again when we return to Florence.

This place is wonderful. Perfect location close enough to the Ponte Vecchio but far enough from it that the foot traffic feels at arms length. The front desk staff is super warm and the location is beautiful. Make sure to check out the courtyard next to the front desk area and also the stunning roof top bar views. I found this spot to be exactly where I wanted to start and finish my daily walking journeys. Slip into the nearby side streets for some great cafes, restaurants and Osterias.
