Liked it but some reservations.
Pros:

Hotel position. Reasonable breakfast.

Cons:

We were in 202. Large room but....handle missing off wardrobe door, no fixing for shower head, toilet cistern running into loo continuously. All these are small jobs easily rectified and they should have been before guests put into room. It's a decent hotel but they let themselves down with little issues.

Pros:

La posizione al centro con vista sull' Arno

Cons:

Il servizio igienico della camera, pulito ma obsoleto, capisco la storicità della struttura ma la tenda della doccia non è pratica

Classic Italian spot, not fussy
Pros:

Beautiful but somewhat “rundown” in a classy way. I loved the dining room and the location couldn’t be better.

Hotel histórico, bem mantido, em cima do rio, ótima localização.
Pros:

Hotel com muita história que foi sendo adaptado para se manter confortável. É claramente antigo, e nota-se mas muito bem cuidado. E com uma ótima vista e localização!

Hotel na jedną noc dla niezbyt wymagających
Pros:

Lokalizacja top, praktycznie w centrum miasta, wszędzie dojdziesz pieszo, za hotelem fajne knajpki, blisko sklep spożywczy no i krzywa wieża. Wystarczy przejść przez most a jesteś na głównym deptaku ze sklepami. Zdecydowanie jest to Hotel na jedną noc, my wzięliśmy go ze względu na doskonałą lokalizację, gdyż można dojść pieszo na lotnisko oraz możliwość wykupienia śniadania. Można poczuć się jak w muzeum, gdyż jest to jeden z najstarszych hoteli, piękne meble, wysokie sufity, duże okna z okiennicami, wygodne łóżko, odczucie jak w komnacie księżniczki. Śniadanie było ok, raczej włoskie bo nie było żadnych warzyw a jedynie bułeczki + wędliny i sery, do tego kawa/soki i mnóstwo słodkich wypieków i ciast.

Cons:

Tak jak wspomniałam jest to bardziej hotel na jedną noc żeby doświadczyć czegoś innego niż nowoczesne wnętrza i poczuć klimat starej włoskiej kamienicy. Były stare krany w łazience, już nadgryzione zębem czasu, słabe ciśnienie wody no i temperatura wody...ledwo ciepła więc marzenia o gorącej kąpieli w pokoju z wanną po całym dniu pieszych wycieczek legły w gruzach. Dodatkowo odchodzący ze ścian tynk w łazience, no mogli by to wyszpachlować, tak samo zacieki (albo grzyb) na ścianie w sypialni która wygląda jak królewska komnata ale po przejściach. Dodatkowo jeśli traficie na jakieś wydarzenie w centrum to będziecie je wyraźnie słyszeć bo okna nie są zbyt szczelne przez to że są drewniane i słychać ulicę i każdy dźwięk z niej dochodzący. Drzwi od pokoju także drewniane, przez co pokój nie jest dostatecznie wygłuszony i było słychać innych gości na korytarzu. Jak za tę cenę mógłby być trochę lepszy standard.

La belle endormie
Pros:

Hôtel avec un certain charme belle époque, mais les équipements sont un peu trop vetustes et insuffisants, voire en panne (prise de courant HS sur chevet gauche, lampe de chevet gauche, qui plus est la seule, n'éclaire pas) !

Cons:

Un peu bruyant
