Best hotel and superb location in Florence. From Florence airport we caught the tram to Florence and got off at the main train station. From there is was a 15 minute walk to the Hotel Torre Guelfa. It is easy to find as it is one street away from the famous Ponte Vecchio bridge. This hotel is beautiful inside and the staff were very friendly. The location is close to all the main attractions and perfect for your stay in the city. In addition to this they have their own tower with excellent views of the sunset, Duomo, and city. During good weather they run a bar on the roof. This tower is accessible from the 3rd floor via a door in breakfast room and up some wooden stairs. Arrive early for the sunsets as it gets busy, once the bar closed (in February at 8pm) we could still enjoy sitting up there and taking in the city view at night. Our room 305 (classic room) was lovely and a good size, with hair dryer, shower/bath, coffee & tea facilities, fridge, free water, and window shutters that gave us a good sleep any time. The breakfast was amazing with a fabulous hot and cold selection, arrive early and you will wonder how all this food will be eaten, arrive late and you will see that it is. Some of it is replenished and the breakfast lady made us fresh coffee. Florence is a city of walking, so when considering a hotel the Hotel Torre Guelfa is in prime position. We loved Florence and 5 days ensured we saw everything, I'd imagine it is worth booking the lavish rooms here if you can.
