La Locandiera B&B

The location is excellent, very close to Firenze Santa Maria Novella train station and about a 15-minute walk to Piazza del Duomo, where the famous Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is located. There’s also a halal kebab place called I Re d’Egitto just 2 minutes away, which was really convenient. Sylvia was a lovely host, warm and welcoming. The room was bright and cheerful, perfect for a solo traveller.

Excellent location as it is very close to train station, and restaurants. The rooms are clean and the bed was comfortable. Silvia, the owner is wonderful. She makes an abundant breakfast brought to your room based on your selections and specific time. A wonderful expericence.

From the moment of booking, Silvia reached out to me & ensured she would be there by the time of my arrival, to give me a tour and make sure I knew the essentials, and if I needed breakfast where to leave, the menu the night before. She made us feel very welcomed. The room was spacious, clean and perfect for our family and most importantly it had air conditioner, bathroom and shower small, clean and cute. Close to Firenze S.M.N. Terminal station, and near by all local transit transportation, but you can easily walk anywhere in town. Thanks Silvia.

I loved my week at La Locandiera. It's in a quiet area while being a very easy walk to the best of everything Florence has to offer. Silvia gives you a warm welcome, makes you a delicious breakfast and is great to talk to. When I struck trouble with a detail of my onward journey she was there to help and support. I'm very grateful to her and think the world of her. My room was clean, comfortable, had a small fridge, a good safe, a well functioning bathroom and a garden view. La Locandiera was perfect for my needs and I wouldn't dream of staying anywhere else in Florence.

We stayed there for six nights in May. It is well located just a few minutes' walk from Santa Maria Novella train station and with a Carrefour supermarket nearby. The good-sized room was very comfortable with a pleasant courtyard outlook and very tastefully furnished. Rooms come with airconditioning, mini-fridge and tea/coffee facilities. The hostess delivers to the room at your nominated time each morning a superb breakfast she prepares in accordance with your choices the night before from an extensive menu that includes ham, cheese, and/or cooked eggs. As far as we can tell, the hostess does everything involved in operating the B&B herself, and does so to a very high standard. This was the best of the four places we stayed at on our Italian holiday. While a bit more expensive than others, it was well worth it. Thoroughly recommended.

Excellent location. Simple but very good value for price.
