Great location close to railway and bus station and with walking distance to all the famous buildings, bridges and squares. A very popular Osteria as well as one of Florence's "wine windows" right on the doorstep. Very friendly and customer focused staff. An extra plus the for the amazing cappuccino 👍

We stayed in March 2025. A cute hotel very close to the train station. The rooms are clean and new. The TV in the room was high quality and the internet service was also very successful. The breakfast was very good. The croissant was very delicious, definitely worth trying.

Extremely clean and functional even if the showers are a little small for the over 6fts(1.84m) Great location.

Had a safe inside large enough for laptop. We have one queen and one small b...
