The hotel had cozy rooms but they were a bit run down. While the price was on the higher side, we encountered some mosquitoes in the room. On the positive side, the hotel was situated in a superb location with gorgeous views of Florence, perfect for catching the festival fireworks. However, there was some noise being in the city center.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms, although not offering a view of the river, were maintained to a high standard. However, the soundproofing could be better as noise from upstairs showers was a regular disturbance. The location was perfect, just a short stroll to the center, providing a peaceful setting close to all the action. The dining experience had its shortcomings, but the service, particularly from the concierge and bellman, was exceptionally friendly and personal.
