    stunning terrace view
    helpful staff
    authentic cuisine
    quirky bathroom design
    product accessibility issue

    The breakfast on the terrace with a stunning view of Florence was simply unforgettable. Plus, the staff are top-notch—Elena's tips about local olive groves made my heart happy! Don't miss trying the nearby Trattoria Bondi for a taste of authentic Florentine fare.

    A little quirk? The body wash spout in my bathroom was facing the wall, which made it a bit of a challenge to get product out.

    breakfast with a view
    limited breakfast variety

    The breakfast on the terrace with stunning views of Florence was the highlight of my mornings, beautifully served with a selection you don’t often see.

    The breakfast selection, while good, could benefit from more variety as the choices felt limited over my three-night stay.

    location convenience
    beautiful terrace
    noise issues
    tiny elevator

    Big hype, little substance

    While this accommodation boasts an exceptional location and a beautiful terrace for breakfast, it leaves something to be desired. Guests may encounter noise from neighboring rooms and may struggle with its tiny elevator. A few quirks like a misaligned body wash dispenser also add to the oddities. Still, it has potential!

    great location
    beautiful terrace
    noise issues
    difficult entrance

    Is it hype or the real deal?

    A remarkable location, just steps from the main train station. The terrace view overlooking the Duomo made each morning special with breakfast served there!

    Noise from neighboring rooms can disrupt your peace. Finding the hotel entrance was somewhat tricky, requiring better signage.

    terrace view
    family-friendly ambiance
    limited family activities

    Our stay was lovely! The hotel’s ambiance was family-friendly, and the terrace views during breakfast were breathtaking. We enjoyed visiting Circolo Golf Ugolino, which offered a great way to relax while the kids explored nearby sights. The staff truly made us feel at home.

    For dads, it would be great if there were more family-oriented activities available.

    lack of family activities

    We had a marvelous family trip! The hospitality from the staff was above and beyond, and we truly appreciated the attention to detail in our room every day. The breakfast was delightful, and the quick access to local attractions made our stay easy and enjoyable. Our kiddo loved exploring nearby gelato shops!

    My wife says that having more family-oriented activities would be great.

    tricky entrance

    I loved enjoying my morning coffee on the terrace with the stunning view of the city—such a perfect way to start the day! There’s a cozy lounge area and several board games that make for relaxing evenings. Just a heads up, finding the entrance can be a little tricky at first, so check the instructions before you arrive. 😊

    stunning terrace
    confusing entrance
    tiny lift
    lack of family activities

    The room was very comfortable with a thoughtful tea station and a mini fridge, which added a nice touch. The terrace offered breathtaking views, especially during breakfast where poached eggs were a delightful highlight. However, navigating the entrance was a bit challenging at first, and the tiny lift posed some inconvenience when bringing luggage up. Despite these minor setbacks, the welcoming staff went out of their way to ensure a pleasant stay.
