Pros:

Everything was very good except from breakfast which is repetitive and does not have many choices. The selection of salty products is fresh and tasty but if you stay more than 2 days at the hotel it becomes boring to find the same things even if they have an à la carte menu which offers more ways of preparing eggs. For a 4 star hotel a more diverse breakfast is recommended for both sweet and salty products. I must admit the guys who served the breakfast were so kind and polite as well as all the hotel staff.

Unser Lieblingshotel in Florenz
Pros:

Wir warten schon öfter hier. Es ist auf Grund des Zimmers mit Terrasse im. 4. Stock eindeutig unser Lieblingshotel in Florenz. Die Lage ist zwar nicht ganz im Zentrum, aber die Sehenswürdigkeiten und der Bahnhof S.M.Novella sind alle gut zu Fuß erreichbar. Das Personal ist sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Alles Bestens wie immer.
