What a fantastic little find! As a three star hotel you may think only average but this isn’t true at all, traditional Florence hotel. We stayed In a family room which was huge separate shower and a spa bath! Room spotless. In a more residential area so restaurants affordable and authentic. 6 minute walk from Santa Lucia. Breakfast Was great could see the ladies cooking it as we went so very fresh. It was like going to Brekky at Nonnas place. Easy ten minute walk to duomo dead flat so easy walking.

This was a very nice hotel in an area close enough to be an easy walk to the city center. The only negative was the room size (double) was quite small without enough shelf space to fully open our carry-on sized suitecases. On the other hand, the breakfast was exceptional with the only Starebucks quality americano coffee that we had in Italy.

We had a pleasant experience right from the start. Allegra checked us in and gave us a map with insights on the most important areas to visit as we walked through Florence. The hotel is perfectly located, which was most important to us. The rooms included a good sized bathroom and shower and were comfortable and clean. If you are looking for a comfortable and clean place to stay that is in the heart of the city then this should be high on your list. We would stay here again.
