I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location was superb, close to major attractions and with easy access to public transportation. The rooms were spacious and modern, providing a comfortable stay. However, the dining options were limited, and the air conditioning could have been more efficient.

The hotel is located in the historic center, making it easy to explore the city's heritage. The rooms are spacious and modern, equipped with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. While the eclectic British dishes at the dining area were a delightful surprise, the lack of air conditioning in some rooms was a downside. The friendliness of the staff added a personal touch to the service experience, enhancing the overall stay at a reasonable price.

The hotel is located right in the heart of Florence, very close to the train station and within easy reach of many attractions. The rooms are cozy and clean, but the TV was a bit outdated. The service was attentive, especially with housekeeping. The dining options were satisfactory with sliced tropical fruits. The facilities were good, although the price could be seen as a bit high for the value provided.
