"I loved the hotel decor! And the hotel staff were great! Check-in/check-out was a breeze. Super helpful and knowlegeable staff. The room was a bit small but cozy, clean and a very comfy bed. There is minimal area to store/hang clothing. There was a mini safe in the room. The bar fridge included water and cream for coffee/tea which was provided at no additioal charge. The patio area is quite lovely with a variety of sitting areas, umbrellas and misters. The restaurant staff was great but the food is very pricey and not fabulous. This hotel is located within walking distance to restaurants, shops, farmacias. It was about a $15 EU cab fare from the Florence Santa Maria Novella train station to the hotel."

10/10 Excellent
"We weren’t sure whether to book our 2 night stay based on other reviews, but we are so glad that we did. We arrived by car and there was ample free parking on site. A car park in Florence was recommended by the lobby staff that was a 15 minute drive and had lots of spaces and not insanely priced, the centre was then a 10 minute walk from there. The hotel was spotless, easy check in, big room. Pool was great, the kids loved the splash area and there was even a FREE arcade room in the basement! The kids loved it. Breakfast was a god buffet with plenty for me as vegetarian and gluten free bread etc for my wife. Plenty of fruit and pastries for the kids! The beds were large and comfortable, air con great. Room has a fridge and some free waters which was a nice touch along with a coffee machine. A really good stay, well priced and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again if coming to Florence. There is a shuttle bus that you can book a seat on too, but we didn’t use this as had the car. Great hotel"
