It was about a 20 to 30 minute walk to Old City Wall. Much longer to walk back as it is uphill. A taxi back was approximately 30 euros. Our room was small but clean. The Manager was helpful for directions etc.

Clean, pleasant, quiet, great location, may return
Very pleasant room, good facilities, modern, felt secure, accommodation welcoming - nice that they messaged to ask when we would arrive in the afternoon. Great location. Having stayed on the Arno previously, I noticed how very quiet it was, and still an easy, quick walk (for those who do walk lots) from the heart, offering an excellent route to the Piazzale Michelangelo and in easy reach of the Boboli Gardens. Would definitely stay again.

I had a huge room in the middle of a beautiful garden. The neighbourhood was a little bit away from the craziness of the city center, which was all I needed after long days of visiting the super loud and packed streets of the touristic areas. I was able to get a good night sleep in their my bed. The people who run the place are so kind and friendly; they help you with the best they can whenever you ask for something, they kind of reminded me of my family. They left me with such sweet memories from my visit.

Nice hotel. Marzio and Rosalba will take great care of you like family! Location has a bus that passes in front of the hotel that takes you right in the centre of old Florence. Buy your bus tickets at the bar located down the street and always validate the tickets on the bus. There is also a couple of parking lots close by if tou have a rental.
