Check in was at a different location. Were told check in was at 3 p.m. so left our bags at a paid facility only to be told the room was ready at 1:30 p.m.! They can keep your bags for a charge but the office closes at 6 p.m.! The room was small and looked nothing like the photos of it. The heating is centrally controlled and wasn't turned on when we were there and it was a cold room! The bathroom had mould in the shower and didn't really feel very clean. Great location but defintley overpriced for what you get for your money.

Florence city
We had problems with mosquitos and possibly bed bugs. Also, we were told 1ft floor....they might have considered it 1st floor but it was still 48 stairs to our room. Good location.

While the listing did warn that there could be night noise from the area, nothing could be heard from the streets. All of the noise was from other rooms in the residence. The floors are very thin and the tv in the room above us was on throughout the nights we stayed. Rooms are decorated nicely but showing some aging and cleaning is needed around the baseboards and in the shower.

This place is way too expensive for how little they offer—there is no breakfast, staff closes up by 6pm and the room itself was really dirty. The shower would flood every time we used it, and there was dirt and grime on the shower floor. The beds weren’t the most comfortable, but the main problem was that they had no fitted sheet, just a top sheet thrown over the mattress. The mattress itself was scratchy and wasn’t the cleanest, so it was gross when the top sheet slid off and I’d wake up on the mattress underneath. The floor in the room was dirty, there were stains on the spare blankets, the locks to the room were finicky, etc etc. I’m not usually one to complain about hotels, and I have definitely stayed in worse; but when you’re charging almost €200 per night you should at least make sure your rooms are clean. You are basically paying for location alone with this hotel—the one upside to this place is how close you are to some of the main attractions of Florence, and some amazing restaurants.

Beware of the stairs
This is an old building so the stairs and handrails are not up to modern standards. That is fine and understandable but the problem is that on top of that their dont ensure that the hallway staits and landings are well lit. I missed the last step as I did not see it since it was dark and the handrail does not reach the last steps. I am now dealing with a knee injury that will likely take months yo heal. When reported, all they said was sorry.

Location is great, walking distance to many attractions and in a safe area with alot of dining options around. The room is not the best, ours was quite dirty.

Please see My message to the management and still awaiting a response. Frustrating to say the least Even though it’s our last day today I wanted to bring to your attention the the conditions of the room given to us , the fridge closet door broken, the washroom water keeps flooding the bathroom, mold on the shower area, bathroom door broken, dust under the couches… I did bring this to the receptionists attention but nothing was done about it. I would hope that if you charge people full price then at least have things clean and in good condition. Swati

We didn’t know what to expect after reading some of the reviews. As the name says, Residenza d’Epoca, it is an old building without an elevator, but its charm makes up for it. If you expect a 5 star hotel with 5star amenities, then look elsewhere. The place is clean, has AC, hot water, and is close to everything. There is reception only between 10-6 (I believe), so you can ask for necessities during those times. We enjoyed our stay!

It’s perfectly situated, but poor lighting in the stairs is dangerous. I had a scary fall since I couldn’t see the dark black stairs.

Beware of stairs
The room was good but walking down the stairs this morning, it was dark and the railing stops before the last step, my husband did not see it and fell very hard. We had to go very slow to go to a pharmacy to get a knee brace, cane and pain medication. It’s now evening and he is still in a lot of pain. Lighting should be installed on that stairwell even if it is motion detector lights. If you walk out of the office and turn right and walk up the first set of stairs, it is the next set of stairs at the bottom, the last one he could not see.

The property lacks an elevator, making it shore with luggage. The air conditioning condensation made us put towels under it to control the water. The shower plug up but staff took care of the issue right away. Love the ladies working counter, friendly and helpful. I also liked the space room provided. I would recommend for a visit to Florence, just don’t expect the Marriott.

Beautiful room with a great location
Great location to the centre and short walk to the Duomo. Beautiful building and room with plenty of space. Bed was too firm for my liking and pillows were old and well used. 30min walk from the train station.

Location Location Location!! Everything was super close. Short walk to the Duomo and everything around it including restaurants. The only thing missing was a bit more of a kitchen space would be perfect. The shower glass wall needs some sealer at the bottom. Our flight was late and they went above and beyond to get us in late. Super friendly staff. Extremely clean. Luggage storage was available to us for €5 each bag…super convenient. We highly recommend and definitely stay again!!

This was our first visit to Florence. Property is in a very convenient location, walkable to most destinations within Florence. Room was comfortable although you do not have room controls for heat or air so luckily weather was very tolerable during our visit. They do not do room service unless you request it but did leave plenty of clean towels and toilet paper out. Be prepared for stairs and with large luggage it is a workout. Overall our stay was very good!
