We had a great stay here, a very luxurious modern apartment for the price we paid and just a stones through from the river with beautiful views and a reasonable walk into centre of Florence, which took about 15-20 mins. Over our short 3-night stay we had housekeeping services and a personal touch of a note to acknowledge a celebration during our trip. We didn’t have enough days to really make use of all the facilities provided within the apartment, but we would gladly chose to stay here again on...

Very conveniently located & I doubt wether you could stay in a more beautiful hotel in Florence for the price. The room we stayed in was big, the buffet breakfast was impressive and the staff were nothing short of exceptional when it came to customer service. Recommend this hotel to anyone.

Just returned from 5 nights at the outstanding Grand Hotel Villa Cora - surely the jewel of Florentine hotels. Not only is it beautifully maintained and comfortable with gorgeous grounds, fantastic furnishings, linens changed daily and brilliant bathrooms (we had two in our duplex suite), the staff treated us all as old friends of the hotel, valued guests and went out of their way to make our stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. Breakfast was fabulous - whether the delicious...

Gorgeous owner, so organised and friendly at the same time. Loved the room, spotless and not your typical hotel room. Breakfast great and we enjoyed the courtyard setting in the shade. Highly recommend and may return with husband in the future.

Palazzo Castri 1874 is an excellent boutique hotel located a short walk from the main Santa Maria Novella (SMN) railway station. It is within easy walking distance of all the main attractions and good places to eat.They have created a special place for guests to stay. All the staff are very polite and helpful. The rooms are beautiful, well equipped and many have views of the Duomo. The beautiful garden with its outside seating areas and small pool is an oasis of quiet and calm and is very...

My husband and I had a fantastic stay at the Grand Hotel Minerva. The location is minutes from the train station on a lovely pedestrianised piazza, and walking distance to the main attractions. The staff were so welcoming and helpful throughout our stay - we hadn’t booked tickets to the sights but they managed to get us tickets for the Accademia to see the statue of David. Breakfast was fabulous, running until 10.30 on Saturday and 11am on Sunday, so no need to rush out of bed. We spent a lot...

Located through a huge arched doorway into a small courtyard, the lift up to the reception on the second floor is on your right. We arrived slightly early but were able to check in straight away - we even got an upgrade to a superior room. The staff were very welcoming and the hotel extremely comfortable. The sheets were the best I've had in any hotel! There was even a turn-down service if you wanted it. The rooms were well equipped. Oodles of toiletries, although no shower gel. However, soap...

We arrived in the evening and the check-in was smooth and quick, we were shown to our room which was a basic classic room which was clean and roomy for the two of us. After freshening up, we ventured out for dinner to a restaurant recommended by the front desk called Donnini. It was located in the square close to the hotel and the food was nice and the staff were pleasant.
All the amenities are within walking distance with shops and restaurants open till late at night.

Perfect breakfast, with a complimentary 10 minute massage after - made for an excellent start to the day. Great central location, close to everything.
Relaxed atmosphere. Brilliant that the gym next door can be used for free.
Very happy staying here.
