Palazzo Guicciardini
4.5/533 Reviews
Florence Historic Center
We have stayed here several times over the years, and we keep coming back because of the location, the rooms, the setting and the staff. It is on the Olrarno side of the river and only a few minute walk from the Ponte Vecchio. As an old palazzo, the rooms are wonderfully decorated with wall and ceiling frescoes, The staff are welcoming, helpful and courteous. The continental breakfast has been downsized some since COVID but there is still sufficient food for a light breakfast after the typical (relatively late) tourist dinner the night before. We asked for a room facing the garden (toward the Arno) and were slightly disappointed by it being somewhat smaller than what we had experienced in the past. Previously, we stayed on the street side of the building in huge rooms (might be a bit pricier) which were fantastic. Only issue on the street side was that it could be somewhat noisy if one sleeps with the windows open. But, all in all, a great place to stay away from the din of the central part of the city and we will go back there next time in Florence.
1900 Artevita B&B
4.1/518 Reviews
Florence Historic Center
We stayed two nights in this b&b located just outside the ztl area. A few hundred meters away is the bus stop to reach the historic center. All close to the convenient bakery where you can make breakfast. The room is spacious, clean and functional. Stefano, the owner, welcomed us at the arrival, even late, and proved ready to provide information and suggestions for the stay, and allowed us to leave the baggage in the facility on the day of departure. So, kindness and comfort, and then, very recommended!
Santa Maria Novella - Wtb Hotels
4.5/5109 Reviews
Florence Historic Center
We came to Florence after taking a 7-day river cruise, a perfect way to end our Europe holiday. The Santa Maria Novella is a great hotel that's close to everything. Easy walking distance to main attractions, 10+ good restaurants around the block alone. The room was spacious, great bathroom. Room service was excellent! This is somewhat of a rarity nowadays and we were very impressed. Tip: if you can, get a room that faces the piazza. Ours was interior-facing and our view was plumbing. The concierge was very helpful at all hours and the breakfast buffet is truly the best. I could have made that my main meal of the day! The train station is a convenient walk, and the bus too. Take the #7 up to Fiesole for a day. One of the best views in all of Italy!
Mamo Florence - Binario 9 Apartment
3/51 Reviews
Florence Historic Center
The location and facilities of this apartment are actually okay. Florence has been there many times. Compared with the hotels near the core area, it takes about 15 minutes to walk. The price of 4 people is still OK. But here we need to focus on complaining about Ctrip. This apartment belongs to a company that operates many homestay apartments in Florence. It uses contactless check-in. Now it is very common at home and abroad. However, using this check-in method requires complete communication in advance. Some need to register relevant information online in advance, and the homestay will inform the check-in guidelines. After the booking confirmation of Trip.com, I did not receive any email or telephone communication until the day of check-in. After contacting Trip.com customer service, they said that they could not contact the relevant agent. Let me leave the email and say that the agent will contact me. The contact number given on Trip.com is also problematic. After waiting for two hours without audio, I finally found the agency company belonging to this homestay online. After contacting by phone, I sent me an email for online registration and relevant check-in guidelines, which was done in 10 minutes. The staff of the homestay company said that they sent a lot of emails and there was no response. I don't comment on what went wrong. But since it is a contactless check-in method, Trip.com does not communicate in advance, no guidance information, and finally no news after looking for customer service. It can be said that there is no action. If there is no relevant experience, it can be imagined that the result is that the local people can't get in, the local contact number is wrong, and the embarrassing situation that can't be solved by Ctrip customer service.
Villa Belvedere
3.9/56 Reviews
Florence Historic Center
We had an excellent stay at the Villa Belvedere. The staff were friendly, welcoming and very helpful. I would particularly like to thank Babu Singh who seemed to be there at all times. Always smiling, always helpful and extremely polite. All the staff were excellent. The room was spacious with an outstanding view over the terrace, the pool and Florence in the distance. We could even see the dome of the Duomo. Everywhere was very clean and the room was serviced well every day. On small piece of advice rather than criticism is dining. The hotel breakfast is excellent although no English style breakfast is available you can have bacon and eggs. The selection of a more continental style breakfast is excellent. The hotel staff are most apologetic and insist that they do not run a restaurant but provide snacks. The menu however is comparable with many restaurants and the food excellent. It is sufficient for a light evening meal, is inexpensive and with a good selection of starters, mains and deserts available plus of course some excellent wines. We didn't take advantage of the snacks on offer during the day so I cannot comment. There is always a however....There are a few good restaurants within a mile. The 'Trattoria da Ruggero' is excellent. I would recommend booking through the hotel reception. It is also the nearest. The walk back from all of them except 'In Fabbrica' is up a very steep hill. We didn't go to the Fabbrica as it is not open every day so best check. There is a slight shortcut down some steep, awkward and unlit steps with no handrail. We climbed it several time except when it was very wet. A taxi back costs over 10 Euro. So unless you have a car or find walking difficult it could be expensive. It is also advisable to book as the restaurants get full seemingly every day. The Pizzeria Antica Porta near the roundabout at the bottom of the hill will do their utmost to fit you in, is very friendly, good value and the food is excellent. The bar is small but stocks pretty much any drink you are likely to want and is available most of the day. I would definitely stay there again but with prior knowledge of the dining limitations would plan the day differently. We ate a larger meal at lunchtime and in the hotel restaurant in the evening. Except one day when I think the chef was unexpectedly off. I didn't check with reception as instructed and was disappointed. Not the fault of the hotel staff.
Il Salotto di Firenze
4.4/529 Reviews
Florence Historic Center
WE totally enjoyed our stay at Il Salotto. Allessandro made reservations for our dinners, looked up train schedules for us and answered all our questions. He even allowed us to enjoy a late checkout. We spent 11 nights here, and enjoyed everyone of them. Our room was large and overlooked Via Roma. Housekeeping was exceptional and the breakfast was fantastic! We have stayed in Florence numerous times, but this is where we will be staying all our future visits.
