The Torre del Cestello had the "Room with a View" (complete with garden below) that I had been dreaming of for my first visit to Florence. The desk staff were all pleasant, helpful, and set me up with a map and suggestions when I checked in. There was easy access in and out of the room. Quiet but incredibly convenient location.

I had an amazing stay! My room was great - spacious and clean - and the view from my room was incredible! I also found it to be in a great location - the walk from the train station was easy, and it’s close to the main attractions while also being far enough away to be a little quiet. I’d easily stay here again.

Very impressive! We received the notifications few days before arrival to remind us about the date and time. Check-in process was quick and easy, service was great. The staffs were very friendly. Room was large, nice and clean. They kept cleaning daily. Great location and walkable to several attractions and to Santa Maria Novella train station. No need to drive at all. Strongly recommend for this place.

We enjoyed our stay. Our room was very clean and quiet..a nice size room and enjoyed the fresco on the cieling. Very walkable. It only took 15 min walk to the train station. We enjoyed the area, and the many dining options. The gelato shop by the river (around the corner) was great.

A perfect Florence base: La Torre del Cestello nails it. From arrival to checkout, everything was seamless. Roxy at reception set the tone - warm, efficient, and full of insider tips that turned good plans into great days. The room was spotless and comfortable, the property charming, and the location ideal: central enough for easy walks to the sights, yet peaceful at night. Professional service without fuss, authentic character without pretense. If you’re heading to Florence, book La Torre del Cestello. You’ll feel looked after from the first hello.

Amazing stay!

We spent part of our honeymoon at the La Torre Del Cestello and it was amazing. Frederíca made sure it was special for us with a sweet note & bottle of wine as well as recommendations for sightseeing. Plus our room had a beautiful view of the river and city. The room itself was large, nicely decorated and very clean. I would love to come back another time & recommend to others!
