General thought it was decent. I recall a modern bathroom in the photos but my room had a much older style. Staff was great. Breakfast was so-so; I would recommend better/fresh pastries.
We loved the hotel for so many reasons. The location is excellent, the building is so interesting, all the staff were friendly and helpful, the breakfast was delicious and plentiful and the roof terrace is fabulous. We highly recommend it as THE place to stay in Florence!
Room was amazing beautiful big bathroom with large bath tub. Bed was comfy and four poster. Staff were all friendly drink in roof top at sunset was worth the climb breakfast in medieval hall was varied and fresh
The staff were amazing the hotel the Front desk helped facilitated a private wine tasting in Chianti region. Yes, we would absolutely stay again. Plus they have a rooftop looking over the city.

A characterful hotel with plenty of charm. It’s rustic interior could do with some TLC, but otherwise a great location in Florence.

Great location! Wonderful staff. AC wasn’t adequate.
This hotel was beautiful, hands down one of our favourites of the trip! The highlight if this hotel has to be the bell tower! With a terrace and bell tower serving drinks in the evening with panoramic views of Florence you can’t go wrong! The staff were polite and welcoming ensuring we had directions for our time in Florence. The hotel had period features which added to its character. The room we stayed in had high ceilings and four post bed and had a separate room with a sofa lounge area and a bathroom. The room was spotless and quiet in the evenings. Breakfast was lovely the pastry options were different everyday and were fresh. They also had a continental option. We will definitely be returning.
Loved the location, the rooftop views and the breakfast. 10/10 for those for sure. The breakfast attendant was so amazing- she remembered what we ordered and was a very bright light each morning.
Our room, 309, was a bit dark and had no mirror. There was a mirror in the bathroom of course. Ironically there were so many mirrors everywhere but none in our room.
We were able to even walk to the train station which was very easy and doable. Beautiful location. Would recommend.

Finding the place was difficult if you are arriving by car and the parking cost was more than what is shown on Hotels.com
Great location for most of the historic sites.
Perfect location steps from Ponte Vecchio so very easy to walk to all the sights (uber/taxis take longer to go places in Florence). It’s an old palazzo that has been converted so lots of stone steps and very quirky dining hall for breakfast and viewing tower. Our room had everything you need and great aircon. Very pleasant staff everywhere.
The hotel was lovely. Nice room with very tall ceilings. Breakfast room was also lovely with good food and friendly staff. Front desk staff was very friendly and helpful.
Perfect location. Fantastic staff, especially Viva who made our coffee each morning. Breakfast was wonderful. View from the panoramic tower was breathtaking….one of the best views of the city. Highly recommend.
