Gioia Hotel was great experience. My friend and I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights. They gave us a three person room so it was very roomy and big. The hotel was super clean. The staff very nice and friendly. They intorduced us two close by restaurants and they were both the best. one of them was family owned and very nice people. The price was good too. The hotel is right in the centre of the city. 5 minutes walk and you will be at Dumo. Defenitely we recommend this hotel.

Great choice for Florence stay
-
Leesha
- Oct 19, 2011
I researched many hotels before deciding on this one to stay a week in Florence. It turned out to be a great choice. First of all the location was great. It is a short walk down river from Ponte Vecchio. Always a great view. This made it easy to visit activities on both sides of the Arno. I recommend walking up to the Piazzale Michelangelo when you first get there while you have the energy and to give you a great overview of the city. We were there Oct 9-16. We lucked out on perfect weather.
We took a taxi to the hotel from the airport which took about 20 minutes. It cost 25 euros, a little more since it was Sunday. At the Berchielli, the staff is excellent. This includes front desk, breakfast and daily maid service. We booked the basic room so was pleasantly surprised to get a nice room on the 5th floor with a terrace overlooking the courtyard. This was fine because we wanted it to be quiet with an inside room and it was. You do hear a church bell but it just made it more charming. The room configurations are all different. Ours included a desk and small stocked minibar with enough room for our own bottle of water. The bed was on the firm side but surprisingly comfortable. We slept well. The bathroom was clean with a shower/bathtub combo. If you like lotion or hair conditioner, bring your own. I thought the blow dryer worked well.
One reason I decided to stay here was because it had a full buffet breakfast. There were scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, thin pancakes, rolls, bread you could toast, pastries, whole and cut-up fresh fruit, yogurt, custard, cereals, cheese, juices, ice, coffees and tea. I like a big breakfast so I don't need to worry about a big lunch and instead use the time to visit the museums and sights. I didn't find anywhere special to recommend for dinner but it was all fairly good with similar offerings.
We took a bus tour to Siena and San Gimingano one day and would recommend that. We also took a bus tour one afternoon to Pisa which I enjoyed but wish I had time to see more on both tours we found on the internet. I couldn't imagine some of these places in the heat and crowds of summer since I thought it was fairly crowded most places we went. Expect lines at the Uffizi and Accademia which we got reserved tickets ahead of time. Also there can be lines at the Duomo both to go inside and to climb up to the top of the cupola for amazing views. May not be good for those afraid of heights or claustraphobic. Plan on going to the Cathedral's museum to learn about what it was supposed to look like. Try and catch a guide for better understanding. Visit the Piazzas especially della Signoria with the Loggia dei Lanzi. We really visited most museums and churches that were recommended by quide books. Something to appreciate and learn in them all.
Plan on visiting the Pitti Palace and take plenty of time to see all the exhibits and gardens. There is always more to see at museums that you think. Prices may seem high for some but it's part of the experience. We also took a train to visit Lucca. Love exploring little Tuscan towns. Do your research and plan wisely so you can see all you want as well as take in the beauty and charm of the area like sunset on the bridges, eating gelato and enjoying evening walks. The city is well lit-up at night. It is full of every high-end name brand store. Plan to have enough Euros on you since most museums just take cash. Also be prepared that the museums don't allow photos to be taken and are well watched. I think so you have to buy the books. Be stealthy. This is a wonderful hotel and place to visit especially if you appreciate art, architecture and history. Yes, there can be mosquitoes so be prepared if you are not covered up.

Good place to stay, could have been better
-
Physician
- Nov 13, 2011
Overall, I should say that I had a good stay at this place.
First of all, it is located about 3-5 minutes from Florence's train station. This was very convenient to me as I traveled between cities by train. So, arriving from Venice or leaving for Pisa the following day and Rome the day after (quite early in the morning) was not at all issue. I could easily walk from the station despite having 2 travel bags with wheels. However, such close proximity to the station and its location on a fairly busy street could be an issue at night sometimes, as you may hear a lot of noise from the street compromising on your sleep. It does get quieter later at night and remains so until early morning.
The most important reason as to why I gave lesser points on amenities and room comfort is because the sound-proofing in the facility is poor. I could literally hear every word that was spoken in my neighbor's room (not that I intended it) and as they were awake after I had gone to bed, it was too much of a hindrance for me, as I could not go to sleep for quite some time. The second drawback is that there was a constant malodor prevailing in the bathroom despite the bathroom being clean. I am not sure if it was because of a common ventilator duct traversing the floors above and below. The shower area is quite small. I am an average person and for someone who is big, this could definitely be an issue. If you drop your soap, you could find it very difficult to pick it up from the floor. However, these were not major issues to me on the whole.
My bed was comfortable. The room was clean. Mine had a balcony attached to it with a table and few chairs. I could sit on the balcony late in the evening and relax. This would be great if you traveled as a couple.
There is a restaurant/pizzeria right across the street (Trattoria, I believe) with very affordable prices and does not charge for COVER (this is a common concept when you dine in Italy, more so in Venice). This could be convenient when you return in the evening tired from sight-seeing. Or you could order food for take-out and have it with your partner on the balcony!
Staff was very friendly and helpful. They were always happy to provide useful suggestions and directions. My room was tidied every day and it could not have been kept better.
The complimentary breakfast that they provide is extremely good. This came in handy as I was mostly seeing places. After a good breakfast, I could postpone my meal until early in the evening concentrating more on sight-seeing and worrying little about where or when I would eat next. If I needed, I could grab a quick bite and go on.
For the price you pay for this hotel, I think this is definitely worth it. If I ever get back to Florence, I won't mind staying here again.

Walkin' Duo
- May 21, 2011
Our corner suite on the top floor was across the street from the Duomo, Campanile and Baptistry, and had magnificent views! We could not believe such a perfect setting and accommodation - especially at such a reasonable price. The bedroom was huge, bathroom large and clean, and the kitchen/dinette/sitting area was delightful. We wished that we could have stayed there longer - the cathedral bells almost right outside the window were an added enchantment. We went up into the "innards" of the Duomo at 8:30 a.m. to avoid the crowds, and it was absolutely incredible.
We walked from the Palazzo Gamba suite easily to all of the sites - Uffizi Gallery, Accademia, Ponte Vecchio, etc., and then returned happily to our "Room with a View." Not many apartments/suites, so you should reserve well in advance if possible (we reserved ours 11 months in advance)! Loved our stay there.

When I walked up to the hotel, I was thinking that I had made a big mistake. I needed a place to stay just for the evening that wasn't too far from the train station. I was pleasantly surprised.
The interior was much better than the outside. I found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. My room was comfortable complete with a safe and refrigerator. Unlike other rooms that I have had in Italy, I appreciated having a shower with full shower curtain. The floors are tile and were clean.
Breakfast was hearty with the traditional breads, cold cuts and cheese. Ordered a cappuccino which was far better than the "American coffee".
The location was fantastic. The hotel is a 5 minute walk to the train station, 1 minute to the markets and the Basilica San Lorenzo, and 10 minutes max to the Duomo and Uffizi Gallery.

We had a very nice stay @ this hotel. We stayed with our 14 yr old daughter in a 'triple'. The room was very clean. The breakfast was great with a big variety of options, including fresh fruit, yogurt, cold cuts, hard boiled eggs, rolls, croissants, 3 - 4 different pastries, rolls, and breads. The location is ideal; within walking distance to The Academia, The Uffizi, the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, the open market, the leather market, etc. much shopping and many many restaurants. We walked everywhere all week, never took a cab. My parents will be visiting the same area in the Spring and will be staying at the same hotel.

Breakfast for the first two days was a little more hearty, but after the tour from Germany left it became a little more Spartan, but there was still enough to fill you up. Floors in room were tile and needed to be cleaned/mopped as you could notice it on a a pair of white socks. 15 minute walk to the Dumo. Staff was very helpful. 10 mins to the Academia.

The hotel was very charming though not as large as a it appeared from the web information. This was a bonus. The staff was courteous and helpful, but perhaps a little cold. Room was well appointed and included a flat screen TV and an "American" sized bathroom. The included breakfast had everything and was very good.

I enjoyed this hotel first for its location. It is next to the river a great view as you exit the hotel. The staff was friendly. They were reserved and professional. The buffet breakfast was excellent. The hotel is not new so walls or roofs may seem antiques but makes it part of the experience. I think I got my money's worth.

When we got there around 8:00, there was no one there so we had to call the cell phone of the manager and it took him a half an hour to get there and let us in. But, we had dinner by the Duomo while waiting so it was all good. The hotel is in a really old building and you have to walk up a number of stairs. But, the room had air conditioning, it was really cool and stylish and a great deal for an unbelievable location. Our bathroom was down the hall but robes were provided and it was no problem.

If you show up at anytime prior no one will be there to store your luggage until the manager shows up. Late check in must be arranged because after about 4:30 PM I could never find anyone that worked there.

NOT a 4 Star Hotel by any criteria set
-
Jack Buck
- Oct 21, 2010
Upon our arrival we were told that the hotel had reservations only for my son and two children. They claimed that we had cancelled the reservations for my room and my sister's room. We had to stay at another hotel for a night and then checked back into the President Hotel the next day. Although most of the staff did their best to accomodate us, this place needs a ton of structural work. It must have been a great place at one time - in the distant past. No restaurant, no laundry/dry cleaning service, and the "bar" was about 6' long and serviced by the person handling the front desk.

Fantastic hotel all around!

We had a wonderful stay for 4 nights during our honeymoon in Italy. We stayed at some pretty nice places throughout our trip, but this was by far our favorite! The location is perfect- very central to most everything, but located on a relatively quiet section of the street. The room was very clean and pretty spacious (especially for european standards). One thing worth mentioning is the beds in Italy tend to be on the hard/firm side, and it took us some getting adjusted to--not the case with NH Porta Rossa--finally a comfortable bed! The staff was knowledgeable, professional, and INCREDIBLY friendly and helpful- particularly Minea and Andreas. They booked our Uffizi gallery tickets, made several dinner reservations for us, etc. Also, I emailed them a week before our arrival to let them know I am allergic to down feathers and they made sure the room was feather free (sounds simple enough, but was not done at other expensive hotels!) They also gave us a complimentary upgrade for our honeymoon from a superior room to a deluxe room, which was an added bonus. Huge selection at breakfast, which was pretty good. There is also free wi-fi in the lobby sitting area - would've been nice to have in the room, but not really a big deal. All, in all, we HIGHLY recommend this hotel, and would definitely stay here if we go back!

Oscar-winning setting in an ancient Florentine buildingThe elegant Degli Orafi Hotel Florence, the setting for "A Room with a View," is a renowned four-star property housed in an ancient (13th Century) Florentine building. A polished, professional staff assures everyone's stay is productive and first-rate. Guests are encouraged to savor a celebrated Chianti vintage and beautiful city views from the rooftop terrace.

Great Hotel on Arno!

The hotel is beautiful and well-located and we had a gorgeous room on the arno, big, spacious, well-appointed with bathrobes etc. There is beautiful roof deck bar with great views too, and the front desk was always wonderful and helpful.
Two cons:
1. They charge for internet! That's a ripoff.
2. Breakfast was disappointing. Room was hot and noisy and service is slow -- coffee doesn't come till you are done eating, frequently they are out of eggs or glasses. Need more staff.
Otherwise, fabulous!

The De Rose Palace Hotel was lovely to stay in, approx a 15 min walk to the city centre along the river. We chose to walk from the railway station when we should perhaps have taken a taxi - the streets aren't clearly marked and what should have taken us about 10 minutes took almost an hour and half as we turned slightly before we should have and misunderstood directions from the soldiers at the american embassy (it's only 30 seconds from here!) The room was clean although the bathroom, whilst being a decent size, had very fine mould over all the walls which also gave a slight musty smell. Breakfast was good, typical european, cold meats, cheese, cereal, yoghurt, croissants - americano coffee was NOT nice! should have stuck to the cappucino!

JimTravel
- Sep 22, 2011
My wife and I stayed at the Arizona on pleasure/business trip. Would recommend it strongly to friends. Located NW of bulk of Florence attractions. If you're in reasonably good health, it's walking distance to all top attractions, very near museum with David replica, and block away from little-known gem: Santa Maria Maddalena de Pazzi. Owner/host and his staff were very helpful. The room was standard fare, very neat. (On another post, I saw complaint about the bathroom size. This person clearly isn't too aware of Italian accommodations. It was fine.) In sum, the room and accommodations were great. The breakfast was tasty.
You take airport shuttle to train station, and from train station, get bus ticket and then take the 6 or 23 bus to the park at Piazza d'Azeglio; a block south of the SW corner of park.

The hotel is located within walking distance of the major sites, but a little more of a walk than some other hotels. The staff was pleasant. The room was simple. The elevator was very small, but even with the elevator is was necessary to take a couple of steps. This would not be the place for someone that has is not up to walking on rough roads and climbing a few steps.

THE best location in Florence!
-
MI Honeymooners
- Aug 30, 2010
If you want the absolutely best location in Florence, the Hermitage Hotel is it! This hotel is definitely a little known gem since the cab driver had to ask the policemen on the corner near Ponte Vecchio where it was, and they didn't even know, even though they were only 10 yards from it! After getting past the check-in procedure, which was a little awkward being on the 5th floor, we got into our room and fell in love with the cute antique furniture, the great view of the street (Ponte Vecchio was blocked out by the Corridoio Vasariano), and the awesome bathroom with a huge jacuzzi tub! This was all great compared to typical European rooms. The view from the rooftop veranda was spectacular! The hotel is nice and secure at night with two locked doors, and a security code to enter the elevator. We always felt safe. The only disappointment really was the limited breakfast offering they had. This is not a 5-star hotel, but it is a great deal for the cost, and in a great location, if I haven't mentioned that yet. We will plan to stay here again when we return to Florence!

Handy location

Mostly fine, but used towels were left in the tub from the last guest, perhaps an isolated oversight. The hotel is an island ringed by highways so eat there or drive elsewhere - don't walk. Parking is convenient. The restaurant was good, perhaps not stellar. Overall, we would stay there again if flying out of FLR.

Nice enough hotel, but sterile

I was looking for a hotel near the airport as I had a very early flight, so my experience was somewhat limited. As it happens, the hotel airport shuttle doesn't start until 8:30, so I had to take a 25 euro cab ride (!).
They advertise internet availability, but it's expensive at 6 euros for a half-hour. They do have computers in the lobby to use, but they blocked my e-mail provider, so that proved to be useless.
Finally, the "always open" cafe was closed, so I called room service. No answer. I contacted the front desk. They said to call the bar instead. The bar said to call room service. I told them what the front desk said, so they (rather surily) took my order. Room service called a bit later to say that what I wanted was not available (in spite of what the room service menu promised), so I had to order something else. The food finally arrived and wasn't bad. The hotel is in a business park area and other food options are either nonexistent or not obvious.
I wouldn't go back.

THE HOTEL WAS A VERY CLEAN AND A FRIENDLY PLACE TO STAY. THE ROOM WAS LARGE ENOUGH FOR TWO PEOPLE BUT IT WAS VERY NOISY. YOU COULD HEAR EVERYTHING GOING ON NEXT DOOR. THE LOCATION WAS NOT THE BEST BUT WE DID LIKE THE PIZZA NEXT TO THE HOTEL. PEOPLE HUNG OUT IN THE PARK ALL NIGHT LONG.

Cozy, intimate hotel

Florence is a small, beautiful city and small enough to walk to the various attractions. Everything is within a 10 to 20 minutes walk.
Our hotel was about a 10 minute walk from the train station. It's a small and cozy hotel. The room was small but clean, though it could use a fresh coat of paint. The staff was very helpful and made reservations for us to see the Accademia and Uffizi museums which usually have very long lines. One thing to note is the bathroom tub did not have a shower curtain, but the floor was tiled to let the water drain out. That's the way they have it there I believe. The breakfast was very good and there was a great restaurant around the corner that had absolutely delicious Italian food. I would highly recommend it. It's called Il Messere on Via Guelfa. We are vegetarians and they made us very happy indeed, so I can imagine how the rest of the food would be as well.
Don't miss an evening walk by the river near the Ponte Vecchio. It is gorgeous! And do take a trip to Pisa from there. It is an hour's train ride from Florence and the leaning tower is worth the trip.

Outstanding Small Hotel

Wired Jesus

Our experience at Hotel Il Relais Cestello was outstanding. The hotel only has about 10 room but was located near our son's apartment (he is studying in Florence), so that influenced our choice initially. The neighborhood is a quiet, more residential area that is not touristy but very friendly. [...] and his staff are wonderful and very helpful. You are within easy walking distance of the train station, all the museums, and right on the Arno. The free breakfast is simple, our room was large and very clean, and other than one night when there was an outdoor concert on the river, very quiet. The hotel does not have a restaurant (there is one of the first floor that we did not try). However, our son took us to several neighborhood restaurants that were outstanding and very friendly to us as tourists: Gusta Pizza, Dante's, and Mama Gina's. Every evening ends with the ringing of the bells of the Cestello Church next door. I suggest stepping out front and listen along the river - quite romantic. We would most definitely stay here again and highly recommend it for anyone wanting not only value, but more of a feel of the real Florence. You could stay downtown or to the north for more money but you won't find a better host or a more relaxed location.

Birthday in Florence

Courtley
- Jan 8, 2012
This hotel is so conveniently located! As two girls traveling alone, we felt right at home and safe in the neighborhood immediately. We were convenient walking distance to all of Florence's famous sites and to the train station. The airport is a little further, but the taxis offer a fixed 25 euro fare, so it was very convenient as well. The hotel was clean and the common areas were beautiful! Our room was average, but it was large and clean, and we were given the opportunity to upgrade when we arrived at the hotel. They offered a nice breakfast and wifi which were both very convenient for our trip. When they found out that it was my birthday, they gave me a nice note and some complimentary biscotti. I thought it was a very nice touch. I would definitely recommend this hotel to my friends. I thought it was a great value, and the convenient location could not be beat!

Overall a very nice hotel in a great location. Breakfast was great and breakfast staff were very nice. Desk clerk was professional but not friendly. Overall a good value for the money, given we had a 20% discount.
