A jewel!

This was by far our favorite stay in Italy. A gorgeous room and lovely breakfast each morning were appreciated. Cappuccino machine with round the clock access! Super location. Michel, his son Matthew and Leo were warm and charming and insured the service was stellar. Loved our stay!

This boutique B&B is beautifully decorated and very comfortable, with a great bed, air con and modern bathroom. Michel was a lovely host, offering a map on arrival, useful information and great restaurant recommendations. Lovely breakfast with quality produce and excellent coffee. The availability of drinks in the communal area at all times was a real bonus. Ideally located in a quiet part of Florence but easy walking distance to all main sites.

Perfetto.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay. The hotel is beautiful and very well situated - slightly away from the hustle and bustle of tourist areas but also easily within reach of them. We were made to feel extremely welcome (by 'Matthew') and the fantastic advice about places to go and things to see, and the overall service was second to none. Staying here feels like a truly unique experience and one that will stand out from many others for years to come!

Big disappointments

Our room was disappointing. The impression was all the rooms have murals on the ceiling. Ours did not. The pics also show light airy rooms, ours was dark brown and a little depressing and cramped. The lighting inside was terrible. You couldn't see to unpack and the lighting in the bathroom was even worse. It had heat lamps only which when putting on makeup made you swear and had a horrible glare. I told my husband i hoped it looked good because I had no way of knowing for sure. With no other mirrors in the room. The worst hotel lighting ever experienced. Pillows were so,bad we had to ask for extra for any support and there wasnt a top sheet on the bed only a comforter. This made for a very hot night as the air conditioner did not work or was preset that we couldn't lower at all. Breakfast Selections were minimal and due to the same options every day we chose to eat elsewhere on day 3. I was beyond disappointed. The reviews were so good but this stay fell way short. I would not return or recommend.

Completely unique property but homely hotel with red crushed velvet walls, antique mirror and fresco ceiling in living/breakfast room. Access to tea, coffee and fruit whenever. Bedroom was large, clean and ensuite was a glorious marble affair. Breakfast was made freshly by the owner Michel and was divine

Great location and great people!

This is amazing place to stay only a 5 minute walk from all the best tourist sites! It’s family owned and they are all so welcoming and helpful! We got lots of great tips on things to do and places to eat from them! I would come back to stay here in a heartbeat... the place is spotless and like a home away from home!

Boutique hotel with spectacular rooms and service

This 5 room boutique hotel is located a short distance (5 minute walk) outside the manic Florence 'tourist zone'. Filling the entire 4th floor of a historic building, every area has been redone and decorated by one of Florence's finest architects. Rooms are large, both modern and historic ( wake up to a ceiling fresco), and artfully decorated. The breakfast room/common area is also impeccable, with 24 hour Illy espresso and wonderful dessert wine plus biscotti. The breakfast is prepared fresh each morning by the fantastic family who runs the hotel. They were great hosts and helped immensely with recommendations on what to see, where to eat, side trips, and any arrangements we needed. If you want an impersonal, tourist hotel experience then please look elsewhere. But if you value true hospitality and design this is a great little spot.

Chic and Elegant stay in Florence

We stayed for two nights and really enjoyed the room, which was tastefully decorated and the bathroom was elegantly luxurious! We were welcomed very warmly at check-in and Michel and his son were keen to share local tips and recommendations with us. It really felt like we were given privileged access to Florence outside of the tourist attractions, so we had a chance at tasting a sample of authentic Florence.

Beautiful B&B Ideally located in Florence

After a long flight and taxi ride to 1865 Residenza, we were warmly greeted by Michel, who was so accommodating and gracious. The room was perfect; overlooking the garden, in a beautiful setting. The breakfast/common area was beautiful as well, with everything a visitor could want. The facility was quiet, very clean, beautifully decorated, extremely modern, and ideally located in Florence. Cinzia was marvelous in her hospitality; make sure to ask her the history of the B&B, it is fascinating!

Stayed for two night in Feb and got lucky with not just the weather but also our hotel choice. On arrival we were given a great welcome and some ideas on both where to eat and also some ideas for our visit. The hotel is around 10 minute walk from most major attractions, so really well located, breakfast is good with all fresh food from the local markets. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be back.
