Old bldg near the Santa Maria novella train station. Very walkable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms inside the old bldg were nice and updated. Bathroom was large , shower water pressure was great. The hotel has tea and biscuits and a bottle of wine as well as a refrigerator. I would definitely stay there again anytime I visit Florence.
Luciano and his wife were amazing. They were very kind. The room was very clean and well kept. The location is perfect, less than a 5 minute walk from the train station, and very close to all other sights. I would love to stay there again.

This property is location is very desirable. The staff is very helpful in providing info for places to visit.
It has tiny lift and is not working as expected, we had to carry our luggage up and down...
This was one of our favourite hotels on our recent trip to Italy. We stayed late April, 2026. Our room was on the first floor (not ground floor). It faced the back and was very quiet, which we appreciated It was decorated nicely with period pieces, high ceiling, and had a comfortable bed. The room had a mini fridge, air conditioning, and the best part, free coffee and tea, and snacks! Which they replenished everyday. The bathroom was large and had a shower and claw foot tub! Even the hallway outside our room was decorated nicely. The ground floor, near the outside entrance looks a bit rough once you are inside, but don't let that part upset you. It's not a typical hotel entrance, it's just part of a historic old house, that's not restored. There was an interior gate, which made it feel secure as well. The elevator was super slow, but that was not important. We used the stairs mainly. You won't be disappointed staying here. The staff were friendly and helpful with our questions.
Excellent stay. Lucio is really nice and helpful. The room is large, quiet and clean. The guest house is 5 min from the tram to the airport, from the train station in a neighbourhood with restaurant and bars.
The best hotel I stayed at in Italy and I stayed in 6. Super nice and friendly owner. And was very helpful. Hotel in an old historic building but it had all the things you need. Clean, hot water, great WiFi, good AC and great staff. Very close to train station. I would highly recommend this place.

El lugar estรก bien ubicado, pero no es muy agradable, las fotos estรก muy editadas, utilice esta opciรณn por que habรญan pocas para mi familia grande.
Si son viajeros en pareja o 3 personas mejor busquen un hotel.
Nous nโavons sรฉjournรฉ quโune nuit ร Florence, mais nous ne regrettons pas le choix du Palazzo Riblet.
Lโemplacement est idรฉal, ร deux pas de la gare (oรน arrive aussi le tram qui mรจne vers de parking extรฉrieurs ร la ville), il est aussi tout proche ร pieds des lieux historiques incontournables de Florence. Lโaccueil de Luciano a รฉtรฉ trรจs agrรฉable. Il nous a aussi donnรฉ de nombreux conseils, tant pour les visites que pour des suggestions de restaurants dans le quartier. Enfin la chambre รฉtait trรจs grande et confortable et la salle de bain moderne et pratique. Bref, tout รฉtait parfait !
