Perfeita
Pros:

A localização é perfeita, muito perto da Ponte Vecchio e das principais atrações de Florença.
O quarto é amplo e confortável, com controle de temperatura perfeito.
O restaurante do café da manhã é lindo e muito personalizado.
Para finalizar, o restaurante na cobertura com vista para boa parte da cidade é um espetáculo, com seus deliciosos pratos a base de trufas negras.
Menção honrosa para Marina, que nos recebeu com simpatia e presteza!

Noise construction: Not informed: Staff lying about the problem. No warning, information, or compensation. Stay away!
Pros:

Construction noise all day long. Lying staff about “water problem”, no advance warning about the renovation noise. Unhelpful, impotent manager. No offer of discounted room dues to unacceptable daily noise.

Booked via Cititravel website. On arrival first night we had a Arno river view room. It was small, cozy and we liked the greeting bottle of wine and cheerful staff. We ate lunch at the hotel’s restaurant and th3n later dinner. Fine first night, Sunday.

Monday at breakfast we noticed construction noise from the 3rd floor. Banging hammering, sawing, awful. I asked Alec at reception what was going on, “a water problem.” When will it be fixed? Today. Why wasn’t I informed. Shoulder shrug.

Tried to take afternoon nap, impossible. I was assured that this would all be fixed on Monday.

Tuesday morning before 9 AM the hammering, drilling, construction noise started again. I asked management for some kind of compensation, a pause, a phone call because Allegra(now the front desk person has no authority), how about two glasses of Prosecco? We accepted.

By Wednesday we had had enough of the water problem, which in fact was renovations of not one but two rooms on the third floor. We moved!

I contacted Citi Travel and now the charges are in a dispute. Citi Travel by phone was less than helpful as the representative could not do anything, his suggestion was to send an email on the dispute page.

We moved to the Hotel Berchielli just down the street. This 4 star hotel was great. At this time of year a bargain at $ 144 USD per night with great breakfast included.

The Hotel Hermitage does have an intimate feel and a nice lobby with views over the Arno. However their response to the less than perfect stay and offer of basically nothing, and the manager’s lack of any authority to do anything to compensate us was unacceptable. “You booked through a third party, you have to contact them.”

Florence hs lots of hotels. I suggest you look around andchoose somewhere else.

A few other negatives: 15 stairs to get up to the tiny elevator to take you up 5 floors to the lobby. The bed mattress is very firm, uncomfortable, and even with a quilt underneath still not great.

Breakfast was just ok, especially when compared to the Hotel Berchielli. Not many choices, and not much selection.

The rooms are small, the bathroom works well, hot rain shower was very good.

Prices for rooms were on the higher side compared to other places.i thought the small hotel would be fun, it was till the Noise started, and the stay took the course it did.

I would stay again in a heartbeat. I loved it! Thank you!
Pros:

The room was beautiful. The staff were friendly, helpful and easy to work with. The views from the rooftop and the breakfast dining room were gorgeous. The decor was so pretty. There was an opera at the church next door and with the windows open, we could hear everything! It was like a special gift given to us! I could have much longer!

Cons:

The eggs were not warm, but everything else was so wonderful, it did not matter. I know if I said something, the staff would have fixed it, so I am not complaining.

We’d have welcomed a kettle in the room. It was noisy (but we knew that).

For atmosphere, stylish decor, convenience, & charming helpful staff Hermitage could not be faulted

Breakfast was extremely good - fresh fruit, yogurt, lots of healthy things. Very attractive breakfast room.
Our r9om was very comfortable, lovely bedding, good wardrobe and storage while maintaining style and atmosphere.
