Guest Ratings & Reviews
I loved the charming, tall rooms with a beautifully painted ceiling, and the separate bedroom for the kids was a real plus. The facilities were excellent, but the room was a bit small. The hotel offered great value for money, considering all the amenities provided.
The hotel has a cozy atmosphere with nice detailed painted ceilings, offering good facilities and high ceilings in the rooms. However, the rooms are small but tall. The service is exceptional with various amenities such as room service, car hire, dry cleaning, housekeeping, and pet amenities available. It is located in a quiet neighborhood close to the main tourist area of Florence and within walking distance of all major Firenze landmarks. The dining experience is varied with fresh cappuccino included, while the facilities are top-notch.
The hotel rooms were cozy and well-equipped, featuring beautiful painted ceilings, but on the smaller side. The service was top-notch, offering a range of amenities like room service and dry cleaning. The location was peaceful, nestled near a charming park and within easy reach of the city center. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of options, including organic fruits. Overall, a pleasant stay with attention to detail and lovely surroundings.
