Great property, 5 minute walk from the train station which was extremely convenient. Located in a historic older building, I believe 160 years old. All the staff that we interacted with were extremely kind and helpful. Also extremely walkable to all the major sites and experiences that you want to see while in Florence.
Very conveniently located by the main train station in Florence. The reception is at the top floor.
The entrance to this boutique hotel is nondescriptive. Look out for the door/building number. Ring the bell for the hotel staff to unlock the entrance door and walk up the stairs to check-in.
Luggage can be stored on site for self-pick up, if leave early and pick up luggage later.
Great value hotel in a great, walkable location. The staff were very flexible with our uncertain plans, and communicated well throughout. The room was clean and comfortable.
We really enjoyed staying at this property. From check in we were welcomed and provided with great knowledge of Florence and suggested places to eat. Only the WiFi wasn’t as strong in our room, but overall it was a lovely to be there.
The location, overall stay, including the room, facility, staff and service were excellent. Lugging our luggage up six flights of stairs was a bit rough.
Excellent location within easy walking distance of the train station, the owner/operator, Antonio, was an excellent host and very attentive. At his recommendation we had a fabulous dinner at the restaurant next door to Home Boutique, highly recommended also.
The staff here were very friendly and made sure we understood all the details about our room and the hotel. They also took the time to show us things on the map that we might want to visit.
Excellent location for my purpose, close to train station and close to the center. Reception was very good and owner was very kind and friendly. Would definitely stay in this hotel again.
Excellent location, extremely friendly and accommodating staff, the only issue was the bathroom was outside the room, but the staff were so friendly and helpful we were so pleased with the place.

We were very comfortable in Novella. A modernised spacious room, close to the rail station and only 5 min walk to old city. The staff were particularly welcoming and attentive.
The host and property were so friendly and helpful. We loved the room, having AC, and the proximity to all the great historic museums and piazzas we wanted to see in Florence. The breakfast arrangements were a little confusing, but that didn’t take away from the great overall experience.
Excellent location, walking distance to the train station, and attractions. Very convenient. Walter was very attentive and nice host. The room was very clean, nice and large. The hot water ran out on our last day, but it is summer, so very hot out. Overall it was a really nice stay.
The property was in a great location right near the station and walkable to everything. The host was very helpful and friendly and the room was great but it was so noisy from the other guests in the common room at night and at 6am that it was hard to sleep.
