Top Historic Centre of Florence Hotel Reviews

Hotel Albani Firenze

8/10 Good

"La habitación era muy grande y cómodo, el mobiliario antiguo requiere renovarlo, el desayuno es bueno pero el personal poco amable y siempre apurado en que dejes el salón, el personal masculino de recepcion bastante rudo y poco amable, la ubicación es buena a 2 cuadras de la estacion del tren, pero saliendo hacia el centro hay dos cuadras que parecen peligrosas, luego es seguro y transitado por turistas."

IQ Hotel Firenze

8/10 Good

"Property is about 20 minute walk from the Duomo which is where all the action is. Had it been closer I would give it a 5 star. Some people at the front desk were nice, some very curt. My room was not ready when I got there a bit early. They said they would call me when the room was ready, never heard from them. nice breakfast included. 15 euro taxi ride to the train station, with 2 suitcases."

8/10 Good

"Right across the street from the train station which is very handy but also can get loud. Still walkable to most places you’d like to go. Check in area was busy, but fortunately my room was ready so I didn’t have to wait to go explore the city. My room was nicely appointed and I had a city view. Elevators are tiny which is not unusual in Italy. Lovely bar with happy hour which I didn’t actually get to because I was sightseeing but I really liked the looks of the bar"

Il Malaspina

8/10 Good

"Our Florence Base: A Charming Boutique HotelWe used Florence as our primary hub, staying in a lovely boutique hotel situated a convenient ten-minute walk from the city center. The property directly overlooked a peaceful park, providing a nice escape from the crowds.The Room: Located on the ground floor, our room was spacious, modern, and immaculately clean. Housekeeping serviced the room daily, and we highly appreciated the amenities, which included a kettle, a coffee machine, and an exceptionally high-quality hairdryer. The only minor drawback to the ground-floor location was occasional late-night traffic noise.Breakfast & Service: The morning breakfast offered an excellent variety, and the staff members throughout the hotel were incredibly warm and accommodating."

Plus Florence - Hostel

8/10 Good

"We were a couple who stayed the first night in a 3 single beds room, and the other three nights we were in a private room with a large bed. One issue is that there is only one singular outlet in the rooms. In the private room, we only had one free electrical outlet which was in the bathroom. We had to disconnect the TV in order to have any outlet in the bedroom. We really feel this is inadequate, especially in bedroom with more than two beds. On the day we left we found bugs under the bedside cube. I also had multiple bites on my leg, luckily they were not itchy so I don't know what they were. They were NOT bedbugs. There is no facility to iron at all, not a single iron on the whole property They staff was really friendly and helpful over all, even when faced with large groups who were waiting to check in they were very professional, kind and helpful, 5 starts for any staff interaction. We would definitely stay again but would really wish they would install more outlets and stay on top of ants/bugs. All towels and beddings were clean. We didn't eat from their restaurant or use the pool so we have no comments to share."
