Pros:

Amazing location close to the centre and to Palazzo Pitti. Very spacious rooms.

Cons:

The only thing I didn't like was that the bar normally closed at 11 and guests came 20 minutes before closing, and they were told that they couldn't be served.

Great location, easy stay
Pros:

Great location- loved being on this side of the bridge but it was so easy to get to the more touristy areas. Our room was great, we loved the little courtyard where our room was, the staff was lovely, and the rooftop bar was an added bonus. Felt Italian as well, which we loved.

Great location, beautiful interiors and great staff.
Pros:

The location is incredible, although parking, like anywhere else in Florence is complex. The hotel is very nice, incredible lobby and solid rooms.

Cons:

Not the craziest breakfast I ever had, but I'm Spanish, for USA standards is fantastic. It might be worth strolling around for the money. Other than that perfect place to stay!

Excellent city break accommodation
Pros:

Everything worked well for us - fantastic location, close to amenities and the traditional tourist sites but also a little away from the true hustle and bustle. Wifi and aircon worked very well (I'd seen reports saying this might not be the case but it was excellent - and it was 40 degrees every day so necessary!)

Cons:

No issues at all
