Reviews and Ratings
I stayed at this hotel and had a wonderful experience overall. The rooms were huge, exceptionally clean, and the bed was really comfortable. The view over the rooftops of Florence was absolutely perfect, making my mornings truly special. However, the layout of the room felt more like a family setup with two little beds instead of a sofa, which was a bit unexpected but didn't bother me much.
The hotel offers spacious and well-decorated 2-bedroom suites that are comfortable and clean, providing everything needed for a pleasant stay. While lacking information on available services, the fresh and delicious dining experience along with the exceptionally accommodating and friendly staff elevate the service to a 5-star level.
