Perfect location, steps from main train station and walkable to most Florence attractions. Small rooms but clean and comfortable. Reception staff was super helpful (especially Nadia): they reached out before our arrival with instructions, provided restaurant recommendations, updated museum scheules (for the Easter weekend). Breakfast was simple but plenty and coffee is delicious and made fresh to order. Perfect place for short stays!

This property is located very close to the train station but there was no problem with loiterers. It was also surprisingly quiet. Very close to the heart of old Florence and surrounded by mini marts, restaurants and shopping. Walkable to all the major sites, food and shopping & p public transportation. . Front desk has limited hours, breakfast has all cold items; the coffee is excellent. Cold meats and boiled eggs complement the carbs, fruit and juices. The elevator is on floor 1 so cases must be carried up from 0. Not suitable for those who are challenged by stairs or accompanied by small children. The room and bathroom were a good size. We didn’t feel cramped at all.

Stayed in Florence for 3 days and the Hotel was within short walking distance to the Duomo, train station, and many tasty restaurants. The room itself was good for the amount of days staying there, we really enjoyed having the option of logging into Netflix because we like to sleep with the TV on. Nadia was very helpful, friendly, and pleasant to be around. It was convenient having breakfast right in the hotel for €8 and it wasn’t bad, it was the right amount of food. Overall, my husband and I enjoyed our stay.

Excellent location, value and service!

We only stayed 2 days in Florence so a central location was critical. This was a great location especially for a last minute booking! Other than some traffic restrictions that we didn’t understand there were no issues. The hotel called the local authorities and had the fines removed, and even sent us documents for proof, beyond excellent service! We even received a friendly “bravo” for sleeping late and enjoying actually being on vacation!

We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Berna. We chose the location based on proximity to the train and our guided tours while in Florence. Both were extremely close by which was helpful. The hotel was a tad difficult to find (small plaque on the building) and the elevator was tiny and not much use. The room for four was very small and the area is loud at all times of day and night. We used a white noise machine to try and cancel out while sleeping. Staff were extremely kind and helpful.

The room was nice and clean but really small. Nice view. This is not a hotel it is more like an expensive bed and breakfast, and the breakfast is continental style. The location is great. The checkout is at 10:30 am!!!!!!!!!! Not even noon. Good for one night stay but not worth the almost 400 dollars a I paid for the night. We were 4, two adults and two kids and could barely fit in the room.

?!@!

We were there for 2 nights. The 1st night AC was almost not working and the summer heat in Italy has started. Terrifying summer heat. The next morning, there WAS NO ELECTRICITY. We needed to bathe because of the sticky feeling from the night before. But I think our AC was not really working in the first place because when we got home the next day from our day tour, the cover of the AC was not there. It really looked like it was inspected. And lo and behold, there was a fan left in the room. It was so hot, we were given A fan to replace the AC that we paid for and the heat was terrible. Our body was sore from so much sweating. We joined our tour without the benefit of a refreshing shower because how could we? It was sooo dark in the bathroom? If not for the beauty of Italy I would rage hell. I think we deserve to be reimbursed from this trip. Just saying. We were just glad we were leaving on the third day.

Santa Maria Novella駅から非常に近く、フィレンツェ滞在にはとても便利な宿でした。周囲にはスーパーも複数あり、駅、観光、買い物のいずれにもアクセスしやすい立地です。 過去の日本語レビューでバスルームの臭いについての記載を見かけましたが、少なくとも私の滞在時には全く気になりませんでした。古い市街地の建物では、下水や臭いの問題はホテル単体だけでなく、季節や周辺環境にも左右されるのかもしれません。 スタッフは十分に親切でした。ただし、24時間スタッフ常駐の大型ホテルではなく、最近イタリアでよく見かける、スタッフ対応が主に日中のみのタイプです。建物の1フロアがこのホテルで、別のフロアには他のB&Bが入っているような形式でした。 総合的には、駅近でスーパーも近く、観光にも移動にも使いやすい、実用性の高い宿だと思います。
