Ellera Hotels

"Loved this hotel! Great, quiet location and practically has its own private plaza. Beautiful, large rooms, excellent breakfast, nice staff, easy walk to a multitude of restaurants and all the tourist sites. The hotel is also and easywalking distance to the train station.The hotel has a full service coffee/snack/breakfast/lunch/mini meal/bar at the front of the hotel with plenty of tables to sit outside and have a snack or a drink/coffee. It’s a great place to sit at the end of the day to just chill out and relax prior to going upstairs and getting ready for evening activities. Staff is friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again."

"The room was nice and clean. Bathroom smaller but that is common for Florence hotels. Walking distance from train station churches and museums. Breakfast was very good nice variety. I would highly recommend"

"The roof bar has a great view of the City worth visiting whether you stay or not. Room was clean with a comfortable bed. Lighting was minimal. Hotel appears to be mainly housing for students studying abroad so the room floors feel a bit dormitory style. And the room and amenity access is a bit quirky requiring elevator transfers. But overall good value and I would stay there again"

"Great location, easy train access and fairly walkable to all main attractions. Decent rooms, nice breakfast selection, good value for money. Would stay here again."

"This is a lovely old hotel in the center of the city. A bit overpriced for the quality of the rooms but great location and the staff is lovely. The lounge area is large and a great place to meet others or to hang out. Lots of construction around the hotel in May 2026."

"Very difficult to get to and park when you’re not Italian and are in a rental car. Otherwise, this was very clean with great proximity to the train station where we needed to be the next morning."

"Reserved months in advance for a May stay. Minutes walk from S.M. Novella train station, major sites, central market and restaurants / shopping. The buildings is 14th-century old, with thick walls, high ceilings and atmosphere. That is part of its charm. Nevertheless, the beds were clean and comfortable, the bathroom was modern, the breakfast buffet was beyond simple continental, and the staff was professional, attentive and friendly. We will stay there again."

"IQ Hotel Firenze is my favorite hotel in Italy! The staff goes beyond my expectations in every way. The breakfast buffet is amazing in quantity and quality. The location is perfect, central to both the Duomo and the mercato centrale. "

"Fabulous hotel - great staff room location character and food."
