Andrea the concierge was a gem. Always patient and helpful with whatever question we had. The location is close to anything you could want from shopping, dining and historical things to see. The rooms are very spacious, much bigger than anything I’ve ever stayed in Europe. The included breakfast was amazing. We would stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone.

The suites were beautiful in a historic building. It was a central location which made it easy to walk to any area of the city. Once we figured out how to get into the building (there was construction and the buzzer was not easily visible) we loved our stay.

We love our stay at Leone Blu Suites. The location is awesome and closed to everything, easy walk from train station. Most of all, the view of River Amos is just unbeatable. Upon arrival, the reception was great, attentive and efficient. We are a family of four, the loft suite was roomy, great decor, big windows opened to river view and plenty of privacy. The breakfast was good too. We were surprised given the central location, it wasn't noisy at night.

Could be better...
The hotel has a privileged location with fantastic views, but our stay was not very good for the following reasons: We stayed in the "Pandolfo" suite and the wooden windows do not adjust well and let the noise and cold from the street through. In the bathroom, the extractor communicates with the street and that is why noise and very cold comes in. On the second day, when we arrived at the room, it was tidy and left the empty bottles, used coffee and glass cups on the counter. They also did not replace the used complimentary coffees. It's a shame because for small details the stay that could have been fantastic was less good.

Wonderful place, wonderful staff, fantastic room.
I wanted a memorable hotel stay while in Florence and I definitely found it at the Leone Blu. While it is listed as only a 2 star hotel, I have stayed at 5 star hotels that were not as comfortable or friendly. Andrea, at the front desk, was extremely amenable. Even during Covid, the staff was there whenever we needed something while still keeping social distancing. We booked the best room at the hotel which was in line price wise with the cheapest rooms at the 5-star hotels. The room was two stories with large airy spaces, including a childrens room with two twin beds that we did not use. All this within easy walking distance to all the major sites. Will stay here again when back in Florence.

Got a nice and big room. In the description it said they had noise insulation but that is not the case. Traffic noise is significant for light sleepers (less sensitive people don’t feel it). Very centric location yet easily accessible by taxi from/to airport.

There is no sign to tell you where to find theReception desk once you arrived in the lobby, the lobby is a empty grand room. There is no front desk after 10 pm you need to swipe the key card otherwise you won't be able to Pass the main gate/ door which is locked after 10pm. The room with a river view is also facing a main traffic street, the windows are single layer old window, you can hear the cars and motorcycle passes by very often, good luck if you are a light sleeper.

Dear Guest, thank you for your feedback. We do regret to know that your stay as not been completely satisfying for you. If you had mentioned the noise problem to us personally we would have offered to you to change the room with another one not facing the river with less traffic noise in order to make your stay more comfortable. As for the opening time of the reception this information is provided in any site web since we are inside an historical palace We hope to have the chance to welcome you again to experience the special hospitality you can experience in Leone Blu Suites.

Large Apartment Style Hotel
Booked Leone Blu Suites for a recent trip to Florence. The room size is very big, even had a walk in closet. The whole vibe of the place is more of an apartment rental, which we liked. Location was fantastic for main tourist spots or crossing the river to a quieter side of Florence. The people who worked there were very friendly. Would stay again.
