Super convenient hotel, close to anything you may ever need in Florence.
Pros:

The location is unbeatable. Super comfortable and easy to find. Going just about anywhere on foot and coming back is super easy. It's close to any restaurant, cafe, shops and just about anything. Room was very clean and cozy with everything that I needed. Staff was super pleasant and assisted me with anything I needed.

Cons:

There's only one thing that could be improved somehow. My room had a shared patio with another room so whenever those guests were a bit loud, smoking, sitting infront of my balcony door I didn't feel like I had enough privacy and had to close the curtains which were the only source of day light in my room.

Pros:

Sehr zentral gelegen nur wenige Meter vom Dom entfernt… relativ kleine Zimmer aber Betten waren OK.

Cons:

Das Hotel war OK.

Leider kann man das von der Garage Giglio, wo wir auf Empfehlen des Hotels unser Auto abgestellt haben, leider nicht sagen - so sind aus dem abgestellten Auto ein paar Sachen entwendet worden. Für Anreisende mit dem Auto - besser nach einer anderen Garage schauen…

Pros:

Die Lage ist sehr gut. Das Personal ist sehr hilfsbereit. Es gibt eine Terrasse für alle Gäste und wir hatten sogar eine kleine eigene Terrasse.

Cons:

Das Frühstück ist sehr süß lastig. Eben italienisch. Wenn man sich dessen bewusst ist kann man sich darauf einstellen.
