Good location. Noisy. No-frills. Was likely an old monastery. Shower floods most of the bathroom. Staff was nice. Overall, clean.
We had a great stay at Foresteria Valdese di Firenze - Casa per Ferie. The property grounds were very beautiful and the location was conveniently located. We walked to all the notable destinations in the area. Our room was very clean and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. Would recommend staying here!
It’s a good place for the price. It’s in a safe neighborhood and takes 15 minutes to walk to the SMN train station which is great for us since we used the train and tram to go places. It takes about 10 minutes walk to Ponte Vecchio and maybe 15 minutes to Duomo and Uffizi. Staff is very helpful and nice. There’s no microwave or fridge here though . I’d like to stay here again .
The location was perfectly situated to the touristic sites and very affordable, and the service was generally very helpful. The AC was a bit tricky to figure out, but they helped us out. The accomodations were "budget", but enough for a short low cost stay in Florence.
Beautiful historical hotel with great safety. Quiet but still very close to the city center of Florence. The AC in the room was perfect for after naps after walking around all day. Traditional Italian hotel
Clean
Friendly service
Perfect for families
Could not be more happy for a hotel that was not a chain. I would say, it was the perfect place for a taste of Florence.
This was our first hotel upon arrival and it was wonderful! Monica, Ginebra and Anna Lisa were so helpful and fun to talk to. Location is amazing-steps away from Brunelleschi’s Santo Spirito! Removed from the more overstimulating Centro, but close to everything. Place to store your luggage. Spacious courtyard. Try il libro de arte di Dori for stellar fresh pasta family owned.
Just be prepared for a very small bathroom. It’s worth it though.
Very nice place close to the city centre and other beautiful places of Florence. Check in was easy and hassle free and everyone was friendly. I was able to store my bag for free on my day of departure making my last day exploring much more comfortable.
There is excellent communication from the time of booking. Super responsive nice reception staff. Hotel is perfect with an excellent location to all the sites. Can't recommend enough if you can get in. Very popular place and I can see why. Wonderful experience!
The staff members were friendly, spoke great English and provided bag check service after our stay ended. They also gave us restaurant suggestions and let us know where to do laundry. The suite itself was straightforward and everything in the listing was as such during our stay. Note there is a key for the elevator and a key for the suite itself. We found that the keys were not the easiest to use during our stay.
Florence is a very walkable city and our location was around a 20 minute walk on average to the Duomo and various museums.
Great reception experience! Nice location. The tower bell is far enough to not bother much in the morning.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The room was lovely and spacious, and the check in process was simple and friendly. The bathroom was on the small side and it was a little difficult showering in the wet room space there was. However, everything was clean and well prepared. The only thing we would’ve liked was coffee facilities within the room. Overall, a great visit.
Nothing fancy but the views over the courtyard made it feel enchanted. The bathroom was a bit cramped and oddly configured but it was nice and secure and that was important for me and my fellow female friend who were traveling alone together
I booked this place because of the lovely photos of the garden. I found it deceptive that there was no access to the gardens. It was like staying in a YHA but with no amenities or access to grounds. On the plus it is clean and has a good location.
Was simple, but practical. Staff were helpful and friendly. We arrived early and kindly allowed us to leave bags at the property until check in was available. Clean, great location.
