Nice hotel within one block of the Duomo. Hotel entrance right on main walking street in the heart of downtown Florence. Within 10 minutes of all major attractions- Uffezi, Accademia, Duomo, etc. We walked back and forth from train station, was approx. 15 minute walk. We had a courtyrad room and it was very quiet. Rooms are a mix of old and new (10 ft wood beam ceilings, modern bathrooms- including tub), and well maintained. Staff was very helpful (good restaurant recommedations) and spoke English fluently. Only issue was heat- it was unusually cold during our three nights and radiator could not keep up. Good breakfast selection (included). Good value and excellent location. They also have free internet access with 2 terminals in the lobby. On third floor, so elevator is must especially with heavy bags. Would definitely stay here again!

We originally found this hotel in Nov 2005 through the Rick Steves travel book, and we loved the location. Tip: pay in cash and have a Rick Steves book to get discounts. The family that runs the hotel is wonderful, and will go out of their way to make you feel welcome (in your language when possible) as well as book you reservations and make recommendations. The location is amazing, very near the Duomo (if you are a light sleeper this can be bad for the tolling bells), just around the corner from the Piazza Republica and down the street from the Uffizi museum and square. The rooms themselves are comfortable, but a little on the older side. They are well maintained though (even if the bathrooms could be helped by a little bleach). They offer handicapped accessible rooms which are more spacious and located at the enterior of the hotel (which I would recommend as those staying with rooms facing the streets often complain of the noise). All in all, not bad for the convenience.
