The hotel itself was a fantastic and absolutely gorgeous option. The stuff were sincere and excellant and were always there to help. The venue was in a central setting in front of the most beautiful church in town-Ognissanti. Dined at Trattoria Sostanza, it was at a short distance from the venue.

Very gracious staff, free concierge service and wake up calls available. Authentic restaurant on the premises, fairly quiet room with a balcony, a very large bathroom plus beautiful fabrics. Wonderful breakfast with waffles to order, the most incredible cake plus omelet station for every taste. Marvellous location a 10-15 minute walking distance from a l-shaped square. Good area.

The hotel was fairly clean, reasonably spacious. Double room with separate showers, a very large bathroom, as example. Stunning, amazing location in Florence, just off major attractions, stores and the downtown area. Also, very close to everything including the train station.
