Overall nice but not worth it due to the cleaning services
Cons:

I was very disappointed by the cleaning staff. We not only wrote on the paper what we needed ironed for a wedding, but we specifically spoke to our house cleaner and she said she would get it done and we came back to get ready with our beds made and the wrinkled, uncleaned dresses for that night just put back on top. We also kept getting decaf coffee after the first day, when we were clearly drinking the caffeinated. We also did not receive new coffee mugs. For what we paid it was quite shocking

Bien
Pros:

L'emplacement dans Florence. Effort d'originalité dans le décor de la chambre et salle de bain. Nespresso. Terrasse roof-top fleurie végétalisée, bien située. Offre de poisson au menu. Personnel efficace.

Cons:

Le petit déjeuner est très décevant pour un 4 étoiles et sans aucun rapport avec le prix de la chambre : aucune offre de fruits frais locaux et de saisons, hormis des bouts de pommes de cantine (datant de l'automne) en mai. Pas de compote. Pas de pains locaux originaux, pas d'offre de pâtisseries ou desserts maison. La disposition de l'hôtel, entre deux bâtiments fait de l'un des deux une entrée sans aucun lobby. Terrasse en plein vent, très froide pour dîner. La chambre et la salle de bain sont en vis à vis direct avec occupants de l'immeuble juste en face, très proche. Le balcon est minuscule et sur la rue, donc fut inutilisé. Comme dans tous les hôtels, il n'y a pas de place pour tenir ouvertes deux valises en cours d'utilisation.

癒されました!
Pros:

トスカーナ地方ならではの立地で、とⓉもゴージャスな空間でした。対応してくださった女性スタッフの笑顔が素晴らしく、また、お願いしてもいないのに、いろいろな気遣いをしてくださいました。例えば、プロセッコを冷やす氷を用意して下さたり、自転車を借りすために、業者にすぐに連絡してくださったり、です。日本を離れて、本当に異次元の静かさと美しさを堪能できるホテルでした。また、行きたいと思いました。
