Everything was fine except room was somewhat small for two people.
Family Group
United Kingdom, Feb 2006
Well positioned hotel wih modern facilities. Not overly hospitable. Good bedroom in most respects, but (as we have often experienced in Tuscany) you can either have a bedroom like an oven or open the windows and let the street noise in - either way it's difficult to get a good night's sleep.

Good hotel, somehow difficult to find by car, but generally good.

This is a great hotel with very modern features. It is extremely well located being within a short walk to the main sights of Florence. We would definitely book this hotel if returning to Florence!
