Perfetto per qualità prezzo e con host gentilissimi
Pros:

Tutto perfetto! Gli host sono stati gentilissimi dall’inizio alla fine, mi hanno consigliato dove mangiare, che giri fare, mi hanno permesso di lasciare i bagagli tutto il giorno del check out trattandoli con estrema cura.
La posizione è perfetta, si raggiunge qualsiasi punto attrattivo di Firenze in pochissimo e soprattutto ti permette di visitare oltre l’Arno, con dei ristorantini molto più autentici.
Tornerò a Firenze e sicuramente tornerò a soggiornare qui!

Cons:

Niente da segnalare

Zuhause in Florenz
Pros:

Die Lage ist perfekt, alle Sehenswürdigkeiten, Restaurants und Bus und Bahn gut zu Fuss zu erreichen. Gemütliche, ruhige Zimmer - eine Oase, wenn man aus dem Gewimmel der Innenstadt kommt. Ausführliche und sehr hilfreiche Tipps von den wirklich reizenden Wirten (Restaurants, Cafés, Sehenswürdigkeiten).

Charming, centrally located- with wonderful hosts
Pros:

Hotel Cestelli is a gem! This hotel is centrally located- but feels like a quiet hidden oasis. It’s located in a beautiful historic building, it has the charm of an Italian Villa plus modern amenities. The hosts are warm and welcoming, and so helpful. The rooms are spacious, clean, comfortable and well curated. Hope to come here again!

Personale gentilissimo, camera ampia con letti molto comodi peccato per il freddo e la luce.
Pros:

Posizione perfetta per muoversi nel centro di Firenze. Vicinissimo sia alla stazione dei treni che a Ponte vecchio.
Bagno di dimensioni corrette con vasca e doccia.

Cons:

La temperatura della camera era troppo bassa e di conseguenza non era vivibile se non sotto le coperte per dormire. La porta che dava sul corridoio era a vetri senza delle tende oscuranti e neanche le finestre le avevano quindi luce in camera per tutta la notte.

念願の部屋。
Pros:

築1200年の建物自体が好きで二度目の利用でした。
内装も調度品もまさにフィレンツェと言った感じです。
昨年気に入った鏡のある同じ部屋を用意してくれて「おかえりなさい」と出迎えてくれました。
オーナー夫妻の奥様は日本人で、とても感じが良く親切です。
イタリア人のご主人も勿論同様です。
サンタ・トリニタ橋(ヴェッキオ橋の一つ下流)に近く、旧市街も徒歩圏内です。
共同のバスルームも極めて綺麗で管理が行き届いています。
部屋も同様、ベッドも何もかも衛生的で安心して宿泊できます。
家具もザ・フィレンツェな感じで、こんな部屋に住んでみたいと思わせる内容でした。
色々なホテルと比較して、何となくですが客層も良いように感じました。

Cons:

ありません。
