Deluxe king room was spotless and huge with wifi connection. There were a writing desk, a chair, and thick blackout curtains in my room.

The hotel was set in a central area just next door to the main central attractions, all the major sights and the river in a quiet square with. It also was to the bus stops which is also important.

Impeccably clean, family-friendly hotel with easy going staff. The rooms with wifi connection. Central location, not very far from a spandrel segmental arch bridge. Set just next door to center of town, all the local galleries and major attractions in the very beautiful area.

Unbeatable and nice location at a moderate distance from a medieval stone bridge. Based next to the' real florence' outside the main tourist strip, and a night club next to the Relais.

Fairly clean venue with light and good breakfasts and street views. Superfriendly and excellent staff throughout. A quiet atmosphere around the place. Excellent and lovely location - steps away from Borgo Ognissanti. Walking distance to a weekly market and a market across the street. What an excellent stay, no complains at all.

Helpful staff, GREAT setting. 200 metres away there is Essenziale, where you can dine. Position a short walk to everything we need, like piazza della repubblica.
Didn’t dislike anything about the property.

Within walking distance of Osteria del Borgo, where you can have lunch. A recommended base for exploring Florence. We liked relais il cestello
Can’t fault the property in any way.
