The room was a basic hotel style room, but somewhat old. There no amenities or front desk area, but there was someone in an office room on another floor during business hours. No extra amenities. The area was ok but busy and somewhat noisy.

Great little hotel find near SMN train station

Old bldg near the Santa Maria novella train station. Very walkable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms inside the old bldg were nice and updated. Bathroom was large , shower water pressure was great. The hotel has tea and biscuits and a bottle of wine as well as a refrigerator. I would definitely stay there again anytime I visit Florence.

The best hotel I stayed at in Italy and I stayed in 6. Super nice and friendly owner. And was very helpful. Hotel in an old historic building but it had all the things you need. Clean, hot water, great WiFi, good AC and great staff. Very close to train station. I would highly recommend this place.

This was one of our favourite hotels on our recent trip to Italy. We stayed late April, 2026. Our room was on the first floor (not ground floor). It faced the back and was very quiet, which we appreciated It was decorated nicely with period pieces, high ceiling, and had a comfortable bed. The room had a mini fridge, air conditioning, and the best part, free coffee and tea, and snacks! Which they replenished everyday. The bathroom was large and had a shower and claw foot tub! Even the hallway outside our room was decorated nicely. The ground floor, near the outside entrance looks a bit rough once you are inside, but don't let that part upset you. It's not a typical hotel entrance, it's just part of a historic old house, that's not restored. There was an interior gate, which made it feel secure as well. The elevator was super slow, but that was not important. We used the stairs mainly. You won't be disappointed staying here. The staff were friendly and helpful with our questions.

i might just not get the florance area

old building they are trying to renovate and keep historic at the same time. the good: 5 min walk to the train station. close to the square . nice check in guy helped carry our bags up the stairs. bathroom renovated but has a badly stained ceiling. bed really comfortable. the odd: you go through a gate a 2 locked doors to get to your room that uses a skeleton key. dosent seem to be the best neighborhood. our room looks over a small court yard used locals that were drunk yelling at each other 2:30am on a Wednesday. breakfast is pre wraped croissants and muffins in your room. I will not pay €140 A Night to stay here again probably a fair price around €80.

室内は広く快適です。レセプションが上階、ゆっくりと移動するエレベーターを稼働するにはコードが必要で、カゴ内が大変狭い為、時間に余裕を持ってチェックインした方がよい。レセプションは一日中空いておらず、ペーパーの補充などは早めに頼むのがお勧め。玄関、レセプション含めた客室エリアへの入室にそれぞれカードロックではない鍵が必要。多少の古典的な様式に慣れれば、歴史ある街らしいホテルでアクセスも良く、窓から見える街並みは最高です

Hotel perfeito, quarto espaço e confortável com banheiro grande e recém reformado. O único incomodo é a janela que fica virada para uma área de descanso para os funcionários de um restaurante com isso havia conversa até tarde e o cheiro de cigarro, mas é só fechar a janela que fica tudo ok.
