Pros:

Ich hatte einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel. Das Zimmer war wirklich schön, und besonders der Balkon mit der tollen Aussicht hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Insgesamt war alles in Ordnung und ich habe mich wohlgefühlt. Ein kleiner Verbesserungsvorschlag wäre, etwas mehr auf die Sauberkeit des Bodens zu achten, da dieser bei meiner Ankunft leider etwas staubig war. Ansonsten war alles sehr gut, und ich kann das Hotel gerne weiterempfehlen.

Perfect from start to finish
Pros:

Hotel Principe is a dream. Their hospitality is exceptional--they really make you feel like family! Breakfast on the balcony overlooking the Arno is second to none. We love their cappuccinos! The rooms are exceptionally clean and the size of each room is generous. We cannot recommend staying here enough.

Cons:

We wish we could have stayed longer!

Fantastic stay in beautiful hotel
Pros:

I had a truly magnificient stay at Hotel Principe. The staff is very friendly, welcoming and professional. The hotel is run by a family and they took such good care of the hotel in the past decades. It‘s an old building full of beautiful details (paintings, mirrors, piano...). Beautiful garden!

The rooms are great. Very comfy bed and cushions, lovely balcony with fabulous views to the river. Air-condition. Bathroom had everything you need, including conditionier.
The coffee machine was another plus.

The breakfast was very good, great cappuccino, delicious pistacchio and chocolat croissants, fresh fruit and vegetables, scrambled egg, yoghurt etc. etc., lemon and cucumber infused water.
I really appreciated the excellent location. All the famous spots are within an easy 10 mins walk.

Would highly recommend and will be back for sure. Thank you!

Cons:

If you’re a light sleeper, be aware that it‘s an old house with thin walls, so you might wanna bring earplugs.

Pros:

Lovely old hotel, quite old fashioned and quaint and 20 mins walk into the centre of the city
