Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The modern and lovely new part exceeded my expectations, although the tight and outdated bathroom was a bit uncomfortable. The terrace was a great addition to my room, offering a nice private space to relax.
My stay at the hotel was truly unforgettable. The rooms were incredibly spacious and the bed was extremely comfortable. I was lucky enough to have a terrace the size of another suite overlooking the Arno River and the Ponte Vecchio. The updated modern decor added a touch of elegance to the room.
Staying here was a mix of surprises! Being an apartment-style stay, the room wasn’t made up daily, but the view of Ponte Vecchio was a lovely and unexpected delight. The room was a bit chilly, though.
The hotel offers spacious, clean rooms with a huge bathroom, fresh towels, and bathrobes. The lack of air conditioning in city-view rooms may affect noise levels. The service is incredibly attentive, with kind and welcoming staff keen to assist. The location is fantastic, near Ponte Vecchio but noise from the stone street can be disruptive at night. The dining experience is excellent, with a broad selection though additional coffee service would be appreciated.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel with clean and comfortable rooms and the great view of Ponte Vecchio and the River Arno. The service was top-notch, with very helpful staff providing valuable information about the city. The location couldn't have been better, just steps away from iconic landmarks like the Uffizi Gallery. The dining experience was delightful, offering diverse and delicious options. The facilities were excellent, making my stay even more enjoyable.

The location offers unbelievable views and is ideal for exploring the city, although noise at night can be a drawback.

I stayed in the annex to the main building, which was very modern and immaculate with a wooden floor. The rooms were good, and the location is between everything you want to see on both sides of the Arno, offering a perfect balance of accessibility and peace in the city. The service was top-notch even though there is room for improvement in hospitality. Dining was a highlight with exceptional quality. If you want to be in the heart of the action and enjoy fine amenities, this hotel is a great choice.
The hotel's unrefined, older building provided a spacious room with much-needed air conditioning, offering a beautiful and restful refuge despite the tiny, ugly bedroom. The service was kind and friendly, making our stay comfortable. The location couldn’t be better, adjacent to the Uffizi Gallery, allowing easy access to major attractions. The dining experience was in a beautiful setting, and the facilities were satisfactory.
