townhouse exterior
Our guest house is situated in the historical center of the city at the first and third floor of an 8th century building.
Soggiorno Gloria is close to the central railway station of Santa Maria Novella, near the congress and expo center of the Fortezza da Basso, just a stroll away from the Medicean district San Lorenzo with its typical open air market and in the close vicinity of the main historical monuments.
The 'Soggiorno Gloria' guest house gives a wonderful atmosphere thanks to the newly restructured environment.

Mold on ceiling of private washroom, nice staff, no internet, good location.

Our room was very spacious and accommodated 4-5 adults very well. Beds were made up every day, but we had to return used towels for fresh every evening. This was a very basic accommodation, but was conveniently located to the train station. There was noise from traffic but earplugs were helpful. There was a small refrigerator; "breakfast" consisted of packs of crackers and sponge cakes purchased at a local grocery. We could easily walk just about everywhere. Since we spent so little time in the room, it served its purpose, but if you are looking for anything more, you won't be satisfied.

Location was great. It was near to the train station. Florence is a walking city and so the hotel still within walking to everywhere. In the room the heater wasnt working properly, so the room was freezing cold (I visited in Dec). Not very wecloming every time you return to the room. Would have preferred the room to be brightly-lit. Toilets are tiled, but clean. The only negative aspect of it was shower area was a little small and the shower heads needed to be changed.

At least the pictures in the brochure are NOTHING like what this place actually was. Maybe they were taken 20 years ago. Its more like a hostel than a hotel, albeit with private rooms. Bare minimums and a clean bathroom, so I was satisfied.

Friendly people, decent accomodations; however, room was not ready as promised timewise. Noisier than expected, but being on busy street we should have anticipated the traffic noise.

This place is a great value in Florence. It is near the train station and the prices are very cheap. It is a very clean budget hotel. The staff is friendly, especially Grace. She made our stay wonderful.

the rooms vary widely in quality. location is good, near everything. when we arrived they said they only accepted cash, and during our stay there there was an incident involving police and ambulance. the safety of this apt. is questionable. no phones in the rooms either. i would not return.

There was'nt a washbasin in our room which led to queing for the bathrooms in the morning. Overall it was fine. We got what we paid for.

We stayed at this place for 4 nights. Its very convenient as everything is within walking distance---the train station is only a 5 minute walk and the market started across the street. Our host was very friendly. The room was clean and looked like the pictures but the traffic noise was a bit much (OK if your sleeping with earplugs). Also our pillows were extremely flat!!!! No breakfast with this one. Overall it's a convenient and clean place to stay if you don't mind the traffic noise.

very convenience location, nice quite staff, spacious and clean room, sparkling spotless bed cloth, the boiler and coffe-tea baskets in a Itlay guest is indeed a good surprise . but the shared toilet is indeed disgusting when someone else is constantly using the loo as ashtray. but the breakfast is rather meagre, with three pieces of biscuits..or Dolce. Which we discovered in local supermarket, a pack of 6 peices costs 99cents. We can't help admiring the cost-management of the hotel. but it is a nice place to stay if you can forget the breakfast thing at all! good value for money overall!

We had a very pleasant stay. The rooms on the street side of the hotel are subject to traffic sounds, as it is a busy street. On the other hand, this provided a great place to be in the "thick" of things. Mario was more than accomodating with recommendations of restaurants and helping us secure museum tickets. Towels, and toiletries were not what we are used to in the US, but part of the European experience. We would return to this property.

We are budget travellers who do not intend to spend any more time than necessary in city hotel rooms. The hotel fitted our bill perfectly and the 2 shared bathrooms were quite adequate - one very large and well appointed, the other small and just adequate. One couple slept perfectly, the other found the beds a little hard... The staff were great and the lobby fridge offering large bottled beers at 1.5 euro was regularly emptied by us for pre-dinner drinks. A great little find at about half the price of our alternatives in a great location. I can recommend the city bus tour, too, for orientation and to rest the tired feet.

The room was charming with a small balcony in a great part of town. The staff was fabulous - very warm and helpful. Some noise on the first floor, we were offered the third (Mario said it was quieter, but we loved the room we were in).We had a wonderful stay.
